Coffee Stain Removal

Coffee stain removal can be done easily if you follow a few simple tips. As with any stain, coffee stain removal should be done immediately if possible. The longer the stain has a chance to set, the harder it will be to remove.
Using a clean white cloth, blot the stain to remove any excess liquid. Coffee stain removal can also be done with a mixture of dishwashing liquid and luke warm water or with the use of 1/3 cup of white vinegar and 2/3 cups of luke warm water. You can use either coffee stain removal solution and sponge gently to remove the stain.
Once the stain has been lifted, you should rinse with cold water and launder according to the labeled instructions for care.
Coffee Stain Removal for Carpet
Coffee stain removal on carpet can be done in the same manner as above. Using the same solutions of dish detergent and water or vinegar and water, the area can be blotted, sponged, blotted, and rinsed.
If the coffee stain removal left behind any excess discoloring, you can use your shampooer for further results.
