How To Clean A Glass Coffee Pot
Cleaning your glass coffee pot regularly can help ensure that you are getting the best flavor from your brew. Doing so will also help to reduce the buildup of dirt, debris and stains that can build up in the pot. Here are some tips and tricks for cleaning your pot the right way.
Tools Needed:
- Baking soda
- White vinegar
- Soft scrubbing brush
- Soft cloth
Step 1: Begin With Baking Soda
Start by sprinkling baking soda in the bottom of the pot. You can also place a paper towel or cloth at the bottom and then sprinkle baking soda on it. This should help to loosen any dirt or debris that’s been stuck in the pot for a while.
Step 2: Let The Baking Soda Work Its Magic
Let the baking soda sit in the pot for at least 30 minutes and up to an hour. This will help to break down the dirt and debris, making it easier to scrub away later.
Step 3: Scrub Away
Using the soft brush, scrub the inside of the pot. Make sure to focus on any stained or stuck-on residue. After scrubbing, rinse the pot with hot water and inspect it for any remaining dirt or debris.
Step 4: Vinegar Is Your Friend
If you still find any residue or stains in the pot, pour a few drops of white vinegar into the pot and let it sit for another 15-20 minutes. The vinegar will help to break down any remaining dirt and stains.
Step 5: Final Rinse
Once you’ve let the vinegar sit, give the pot a final rinse with hot water. Then, dry the pot with a soft cloth.
And you’re done! Following these steps will help to ensure that your coffee tastes great and that your pot remains in good condition.
