To remove, fill the pitcher with hot white vinegar and let soak for about 20 minutes. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners. They will cause scratches which can lead to breakage. Helpful Hints Fresh tap water should be used in the machine at all times. DO NOT USE HOT WATER. Use only genuine MR. COFFEE* 8-12 cup basket filters for best brewing performance. Avoid using chemically softened water whenever possible. The use of chemically softened water can inhibit proper filtration. This will affect the beverage flavor and will cause a long drip time from the steeping basket.
