How to Clean an Automatic Drip Coffee Maker with Vinegar

Mineral deposits from water and coffee residue can build up when you use your coffee maker over time. Both the flavor of your coffee can be affected by this build-up, as well as the performance of your coffee maker can be affected. The best way to restore your coffee maker's performance and descale your coffee reservoir is to regularly clean your brewer using a vinegar and water solution using the following steps.

To clean and descale standard coffee makers, 2 cups (1 pint) of plain white vinegar into the water reservoir.
Press the ON or BREW button. After 30 seconds, press OFF to stop the brewing process- this ensures the vinegar is in the components of the coffee maker and can get to work on descaling. Wait 30 minutes.
Press ON again and complete the brewing process with the vinegar. Press OFF when finished.
Run 2-3 more brew cycles with clean water only, allowing the machine to cool between cycles. This will ensure the vinegar is fully purged from the system.
