The filter basket often doesn’t get the attention it deserves (likely because its covered by the filter itself). But it’s an important piece of equipment that helps complete a coffee’s transformation from grounds to brew. And it’s important to keep clean – oily coffee residue can build up on the filter basket, causing each successive brew to be tainted by the lingering taste of old coffee.
Step 1 — Discard all coffee from the server.
Step 2 — Place the cleaning product in the center of the brew basket. Dose appropriately for the size of the brewing vessel.
Step 3 — Run the brew cycle into server and hold.
Step 4 — Discard the solution and use a coffee brush to remove any remaining residue or stains. Rinse thoroughly with clean water to ensure no cleaning solution remains.
