Have you ever considered maintaining your coffee machine? You should! Cleaning the machine is equally as important as buying good beans, roasting properly and blending well. If you clean your machine regularly, you will increase the quality of your coffee (which is what everyone wants, right?!)
Make a mixture of 1 part white vinegar to 2 parts water - enough to fill the pot. You may require a stronger solution if the machine hasn't been cleaned in over 6 months.
Pour the mixture into the coffee maker where you would normally add water. Turn the coffee maker on to brew a pot. Once the brewing cycle is complete, shut off your coffee maker and allow the mixture to sit in the pot for about 15 minutes, then rinse.
Repeat this brewing cycle with just water to remove any leftover vinegar. Then, wash the post with warm, soapy water. For tough stains, scrub the pot using a paper towel. Rinse thoroughly.
We recommend cleaning your coffee maker monthly to remove hard water deposits, leftover coffee oils that become rancid, and any other impurities. And, always clean a brand new coffee pot prior to using it for the first time!
