How to Clean Stained Glass Coffee Pots?

Nothing compares to a perfectly brewed cup of coffee—until, of course, you realize the glass pot was never properly cleaned, giving your elixir a funky taste. Coffee stains build up in glass coffee pots over time, but fortunately, you don’t need to invest in a professional cleaning to get rid of them. Here’s how to get your pot looking and smelling fresh again, using simple and natural ingredients.

You will need:

• Measuring cup
• Baking soda
• Warm water
• White vinegar
• Soft sponge
• Rinse cloth

Instructions:

1. Start by combining 1/3 cup baking soda with 1/3 cup warm water to create a paste. Shake the paste in the coffee pot to spread it on the walls of the pot.
2. Leave the baking soda paste on the stained glass coffee pot for an hour.
3. Pour 1 cup of white vinegar into the pot filled with warm water.
4. Let the vinegar and water mixture sit for 10 minutes.
5. Scrub the stained parts of the pot with a soft sponge for about two to three minutes.
6. Empty the pot.
7. Rinse the pot with a rinse cloth and warm water to get rid of the remaining residue.
8. Rinse the pot a few times after scrubbing.
9. Let the pot air dry before using it.

Now you have a perfectly clean glass coffee pot that’s free of any funky tastes. Congratulations—you just saved yourself a trip to the store!
