Wash the coffee maker immediately after you have used it.

A two-minute hack to get rid of stubborn hard water stains from your coffee maker

We all love our dose of caffeine at least twice a day. Unfortunately, hard water always ends up leaving unsightly deposits that turn brown or black when left with a little coffee at the bottom of the pot. Detergents aren’t really helpful. However, follow this 4-step process and bid adieu to the stains.

Step 1:

Wash the pot of the coffee maker thoroughly with water to get rid of the stench of coffee from the pot.

Step 2:

Put some ice and salt in the pot and swirl it properly for 30 seconds. This will help loosen the greasy stains from the pot.

Step 3:

Empty the pot and pour some vinegar in it and scrub the insides to get rid of the stains.

Step 4:

Empty the pot, fill it with water and put it on the brewing cycle for a minute. The little traces of vinegar will get washed away with the boiling water.

Voila! The coffee maker is now stain-free and ready to brew another hot cuppa!
