how do you clean your coffee maker?

Question

i have heard vinegar, will apple cider vinegar work? i used to buy a coffee maker solution but i want to clean it today so... thanx for your time.

Answer 1

vinegar works fine

Answer 2

You can use Baking Soda, if you are washing it in a sink. But if you want to run it through, your apple cider vinegar will work fine . I have a stove top, and sometimes I use," Fume Free Easy Off Oven Cleaner" in the blue can. That really cleans it. My Mom used to get a product called, "Dip- It" and ran that through hers. Byee, I'm going to have my coffee now!

Answer 3

white vinegar is what you want to use to clean the coffee maker. Run it thru instead of water and wipe down all the inner surface area of the water tank with it too, then run two cycles of just water thru it to finish off.

Answer 4

If you run a small amount of CLR (Calcium Lime Rust remover) Or Lime remover (Lime-A-Way) with water threw it, It Will clean out any lime & boult up coffee. You just have to give it a couple rinses as with running any cleaner threw a coffee maker.

Answer 5

I still do what learned a while ago in a restaurant that I managed

the waitresses would but a shaker full of salt in the pot and then fill it halfway with ice cubes and swirl it around until the friction polished the insides
then they just rinsed it

sometimes tho i take this big wooden spoon I have and swirl the ice with the spoon

works just like sandpaper
