And it's *disgusting. Both burners are nasty, the metal filter at the top where you poor the water is dingy in the outside and god-knows-what on the inside.
To give you an idea: I noticed they had some Republic of Tea (Honey Ginseng) next to the folgers, so I decided to at least try making some hot water with the thing (don't judge, it's about 15 degrees in Michigan). ...The water came out rust colored sooo....
Since I'm a hybrid of a barista, a psychology student and obsessive compulsive, what do I want to spend my lunch hour doing? CLEANING THE %&$# out of that thing. a lot more of a negative reenforcement impulse than an altruistic impulse, but I'm fine with that.
Any ideas?! I want to make it look new by the time I'm done with it.
What cleaning products do I use?? What technique??? Unfortunately burning it isn't an option :(
Only after that will I replace the folgers with some nice fresh Equal Exchange.
