How do you clean a wire basket coffee filter?
My wife and I love our coffee and we have a one cup coffee brewer made by the Keurig Company. You can use prepared cups that the machine punches a hole in the top and bottom of or you can use a holder that you put a wire filter basket in with your ground coffee.
PROBLEM: The basket gets clogged over time with I guess the oil in coffee so that the hot water does not flow easily and you get a backing up effect which the machine doesn’t like. I have tried washing the basket in the dishwasher which seems to help a little but does not cut the oil. I have tried soaking in vinegar which surprisingly did not help. HELP!!!
I had the same issue… this is what worked for me.
There is a product called Brew Rite Cleaner. It is in a white bottle (like a large Tylenol bottle) with a red top. It cleans all the deposits from the filter AND you can run it through your coffee maker, and it will clean it. It doesn’t leave a funny taste, either.
I found it at Walmart in the same place coffee filters are sold which is usually near the coffee makers & small appliances. Relatively inexpensive.
