I love my coffee carafe and use it regularly. When we had a mommy’s helper this summer, I would pour all of my coffee into it and then take it with me into my office and shut my door. It was a great way to keep the coffee warm and also keep me from going up and down the stairs for refills while I worked.
Cleaning a narrow thermos or carafe can be difficult, but my trusty baby bottle brush has pulled through for me on these occasions. I use this to wash these narrow items and get them squeaky clean. They also are great for washing wine glasses or other dainty glasses.
Sound Off: What baby items do you still use in your house? What new purposes have you found for these things?
Another way we clean out our coffee pot is with really hot water and about 1 tablespoon of oxyclean. Swirl it around and let it set for abotu 4 hours or overnight (fill the pot to the very top). Rinse it out well and enjoy a shiny and new inside!
