Cleaning the Coffee Maker for better tasting Coffee
Cleaning the coffee maker is necessary if you want to have good tasting coffee. Tap water has many impurities, which over time build calcium, lime and other deposits.
Some models have an indicator that lets you know when it is time to clean the machine. Some owner manuals recommend how often to clean the machine.
The cleaning process is simple. Use vinegar or a mixture of half vinegar and half water and pour it into the spout where you generally pour water. Turn the coffee maker on and let it run through the machine. Turn the machine off and let it stand for 20-30 minutes. Dispose of the mixture and repeat the process 2-3 times with clean water.
Some filter baskets and glass carafes are dishwasher safe. Run these parts through the dishwasher. You can also wash them with warm water and dish detergent.
