Coffee stained cups
A friend mentioned it’s a waste and a shame, but her church threw away coffee stained cups because they didn’t want to use them that way. A small amount of liquid chlorine bleach on a dish cloth will remove it right away. She was astounded.

Or Barkeeper's Friend. A waste, for sure.

Really a waste. So easy to clean either way mentioned
|
A bit of Dawn dish detergent will get rid of some stains. Like the tad of bleach also.
|
Some baking soda paste would take care of the problem, also.

Also, for what it's worth, plastic containers stained by tomato sauce are greatly improved by spending the day outside in direct sunlight. Just make sure they don't blow away. |
The water in my area is so full of calcium that we have to use a dishwasher additive every load to avoid white film on everything. If we don't, the coating on inside the coffee cups attracts coffee stains. The coffee stains the calcium deposits, actually, so it is a big ugly mess.
The additive I use is called Lemi-shine. It is mostly citric acid. Vinegar also works, if you have calcium deposits in a big pot or tea pot. I could write an essay on Lemi-shine. I love it and sort of panic if I can't find it at Walmart, lol! |
I agree. A complete waste. I don't know how they work on coffee stains, but the Mr Clean Magic Eraser takes all the tea stains out of my pitchers quickly and easily.

Good grief! I often use a little bleach to clean coffee and tea stains from cups. You would think they could have Googled it if they didn’t know how to clean them.

We live in a throw away world today. So easy to throw away and buy new. What a shame.
