Cleaning The Coffee Maker

 

Cleaning the coffee maker is quite simple to do

and makes the coffee taste so much better.

The recommendations for cleaning on my coffee maker

is to clean it after 60 uses.

This works out to about once a month for us.

 

First, add four cups of vinegar

and eight cups of water.

Add a fresh coffee filter.

 

If your coffee maker has a self-clean button turn that on

and then turn on the coffee maker

and let it brew through the cycle.

If you don't have the self-clean

just turn on the coffee maker and do a regular brew cycle.

 

Once the cycle is finished let it sit for 15 minutes,

empty the vinegar/water mixture

and run another cycle through,

although this time with just plain water.

If you haven't cleaned your coffee maker in quit some time

you may want to do a second vinegar/water cycle

and then a rinse cycle.

 

My coffeemaker has a charcoal filter

so I replace it when I clean the coffeemaker.

 

Remove the old filter

and replace with a fresh charcoal filter.

 

Let it soak in water for 10 minutes.

 

 

Then rinse under running water for 10-15 seconds.

Let drain completely and place back in the coffeemaker.

 

 

Brew a fresh pot of coffee and enjoy!
