Remember all those great cuppas you made that imparted their special oils onto the inside of the pot? You don't want to go tarnishing that with the taste of dishwashing liquid. Simply rinsing it with hot water and wiping it with a clean cloth after each use will suffice. Alternatively, leave it out on the drying rack for a bit so that it dries out completely.

Use the de-liming spring to clean the copper tube behind the spray head. Pour several pots of clear white vinegar through the unit to further remove lime and scale from the interior of your coffee maker.
