How do you clean a Cuisinart coffee maker?
A coffee maker consists of various components that power the many different features and functions it provides. To ensure an efficient brewing experience, there are different methods for cleaning each component.
- Filter basket, carafe, and lid. The filter basket, carafe, and lid of coffee maker models can be cleaned by either hand washing them in warm, soapy water and rinsing thoroughly, or on the upper rack of your dishwasher. Dry the filter basket, carafe, and lid completely before reassembling or storing the parts to prevent bacterial growth.
- Base. To clean the base of a coffee maker, first, unplug the power source to the programmable Cuisinart unit. Then wipe the surface with a damp cloth. The same can be done for the area located under the filter to remove any unwanted residue. Do not submerge the base of the coffee maker in water.
