Cleaning the Decanter
Hard water can leave a whitish stain on the decanter.
Coffee and tea may then turn this stain brown.
To remove decanter stains:
1)
Fill the decanter with a solution of equal parts
tap water and vinegar and let the solution stand
in the decanter for approximately 20 minutes.
2)
Discard the solution and wash and rinse
the decanter.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleansers
that may scratch the decanter;
scratches may cause the decanter
to break.
