Decanter Cleaning

Hard water can leave a whitish mineral deposit inside the decanter. Coffee and tea discolor these deposits, sometimes leaving a brownish stain inside the decanter. To remove these stains, follow these simple steps:

1. Use a hot white vinegar solution and let it soak.

2. Let it stand for about 20 minutes and then discard.

3.Wash and rinse the decanter thoroughly using a soft cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners. These will cause scratches which can lead to breakage.
