Cleaning Tips Thursday!
-
Use vinegar to disinfect your coffee maker.
-
Even those of us who use our coffee makers on a daily basis probably aren't deep-cleaning them as often as we should be. Research published in 2015 in Scientific Reports suggests that our coffee makers are a veritable hotbed of bacterial activity, which means that you might just be ingesting some of that icky stuff along with your dark roast.
-
So, how should you combat all that bacteria?
-
Once a month, fill your coffee maker's reservoir with four tablespoons of white vinegar mixed with water, run it, and then run it once more with only water to get rid of any vinegar smell.

Cleaning Tips Tuesday!
-
Steam clean your microwave.
-
That stuck-on mess from the time you tried to heat up your leftover spaghetti is going to take a lot of elbow grease to remove. Luckily, a little steam can make the job a whole lot easier.
-
Clean your microwave without scrubbing by putting a bowl of hot water inside and setting it to 5 minutes. Steam created through heating the water will loosen the grime in your microwave and make it easy to wipe it off with a cloth.
