Hi all

Can someone recommend me a method to get rid of those pesky stains in the bottom of my coffee cups?

Thanks

Coke.

I used to buy a can of coke every now and then and pour it into my work mug at night and rinse the next morning, sparkling! and no scrubbing required

just a wipe with a cloth or wash like you do normal dishes.

bi-carb works a treat too! Just rub some on with a cloth

I use a bleach.
I either fill the cup with water and tip in a small amount of bleach or i fill the sink with water and bleach and put in all the cups that need doing and leave them to soak.
Then i wash as normal.

My mum uses the tablets that she soaks her false teeth in !

if you have a dishwasher - hot water and a sprinkle of powder

I have used bleach and I also know that the magic erasers works really well.

Our stains are mainly our tea mugs, yes, we have separate mugs for tea & coffee

, so they need to be cleaned regularly.

salt scrubs usually do the trick

yep drop of bleach and then chuck the bleach around your sink and it comes up a treat!

my coffee cups look brand new now that we have our dishwasher and wash them in there instead!
You could always bring them around and give them a spin the my dishwasher anytime lol!
