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 easy steps.
1. Use a solution of equal parts white vinegar and hot water.
2. Let solution stand in decanter for about 20 minutes. Discard.
3. Wash and rinse decanter thoroughly using soft cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive
cleaners. These may cause scratches and can lead to breakage.
