Remove Coffee Stains with Arm and Hammer Baking Soda

Cleaning your home shouldn’t cost you an arm and a leg, but that’s sometimes how consumers feel about switching to natural or green cleaners.

Thankfully, baking soda can be used to safely and inexpensively clean everything from stainless steel sinks to unclogging drains. It can even be used to remove coffee stains from reusable mugs.

I recently received a reusable coffee mug as a gift. I’ve used it multiple times a week for several months but, unfortunately, it has started to stain. Even after several hand scrubbings and cycles in the dishwasher, the stain wouldn’t go away.

Since baking soda can remove rust from a stainless steel sink, it made me think that it could also be used a scrub to remove a simple coffee stain.

Here’s how it worked for me…

How to Remove Coffee Stains with Baking Soda

Ingredients:

• Arm & Hammer Baking Soda
• Warm/Hot Water

Directions:

Sprinkle baking soda over the coffee stain in your plastic mug. Fill the cup with hot water and let soak for at least a minute. Then, using a scrub brush, scour the mug until the stain is lifted. Repeat if necessary. Wash and dry as usual.

As you can see from the picture, it worked wonderfully on my mug. It looks brand new again! Who needs expensive cleaners when you have baking soda!
