If you drink a lot of coffee and don’t have time to clean the filter regularly, you may notice that it’s changed colors a bit. Coffee leaves behind an ugly stain over time. Fortunately no matter how bad the stain is, it won’t take long to remove.
Things You Will Need
-
Rinse the filter basket out well to get rid of any leftover coffee grounds.
-
Fill the sink with hot water and add 2 cups of white vinegar per gallon of hot water.
-
Set the basket in the sink and leave it to soak for at least 15 minutes.
-
Wash the filter with warm, soapy water and a clean cloth or sponge.
-
Repeat the process for particularly stubborn stains.
