so, just wondering if anyone out there has any tips on cleaning coffee pots (other than vinegar.....im out, and NOT going to the store tonight!) i just made a pot of hot water to make hot chocolate with (hot chocolate + peppermint schnapps = teh YUM!!) and i put a filter in the basket because i was high, and it got wet, so i left it....the stuff it caught was NARSTY....i have really good well water, but it's got a lot of lime n such in it evidently and has built up.....anyone got any home remedies? brew rite used to make a really good product but the last few times ive looked, i didn't see it....vinegar works great too, but a) it stinks up the house and b) the aforementioned im out and not goin to the store, and will probably forget to buy vinegar the next at least five times i go to the store......
and, just to avoid silliness...im not talking about the actual pot, im talking about cleaning the innards of the coffee machine...
ps...i had to nuke my hot choc water....nuking water freaks me out a bit after having a glass of water i was heating for something or other pretty much explode all over my hand when i took it out of the microwave!
