Cleaning Coffee Maker | How to Clean a Coffee Maker


Cleaning, coffee maker maintenance and presentation are fundamental aspects of ensuring the coffees are you are making are up to scratch.

Coffee is as much about culture as getting a mood lift from the mind-altering drug of caffeine. Coffee connoisseurs know a good coffee miles away and surprisingly it isn’t just the taste that determines what makes a good cup or mug.

The equipment involved in the coffee making process simply  must be properly maintained and cleaned. If you clean your coffee maker once every year, there is no doubt that congealed coffee sediment will be leeching into your mix. An experienced coffee drinker will be able to taste and/or smell this and this can lead to a great deal of embarrassment for you!
