Dont just clean it. Oxiclean it!

[Ted's personal infomercial testimonial]
So each (work) day for the past few years I make some coffee and fill up my thermos and bring it to work with me. I do my best, seriously, to clean the thermos and the coffee pot out, but nothing seems to get the coffee grime off the stainless steel. Baking soda. Vinegar. Dish soap. Soaking. I've tried quit a few things. I did a quick search on the wonderful world wide web (of answers) and found a suggestion about using Oxiclean. So I opted to try it out. Grabbed a small container at Walgreens. Put in a fair sized scoop, and some hot tap water, and prepared to wait a few hours.

Even Billy Mays would have been impressed. Within seconds, "stuff" was bubbling out of my thermos. Then it looked like a volcano of cappuccino (yes, as a frothy, coffee colored mess was coming out). A very Positive sign. The next morning I dumped out the thermos and the coffee pot.

WOW! I don't think either looked so clean, even when they were brand new. Without so much as a single scrub, or swirl or anything. All that coffee I couldn't scrub off before just vanished.

Thank you Oxiclean!
