I used Oxi Clean as well, small amount with hot water. Let it sit for 30-60 minutes, didn't even touch the stainless steel pot. It was shining without a trace of coffee stain.

The Oxi Clean worked GREAT! For our stainless thermo-pot I put one scoop of Oxi Clean in the pot filled with very hot water. Let stand for about 15 - 20 min. stirring a couple of times. Interior of pot came out shining!

Thanks to JMRoss. The dishwasher soap with the hot water got the pot looking like new.

Pour some baking soda in, add a little bit of water, and let it sit for a few minutes.

Thank you everyone for all your suggestions. Will certainly try them. I'm looking forward to a clean and sparkling pot. Will definitely try the oxi clean and dishwasher soap suggestions.

If you mean a percolator, I use 1/8 cup of Oxi Clean and a full pot of water. After perking, run two more pots of plain water through. It sparkles on the inside and all of the build up is gone.

How do I clean my stainless steel coffee pot?

RE: Cleaning a Stainless Steel Coffee Pot

I have a friend that uses Bon-Ami (the scouring powder) on all kind of things I thought would get scratched. It's non-abrasive so it preserves the item. That would probably get coffee stains out of SS. (12/25/2006)

RE: Cleaning a Stainless Steel Coffee Pot

The best way I have found to clean coffee pots, thermos bottles, etc. is to use denture tablets! Fill the pot or thermos bottle with warm water, drop in one or two denture tablets and let it sit for 10 or 15 minutes. Or, if its really stained, let it sit overnight. I have used this method for many years. Works terrific! (12/26/2006)

RE: Cleaning a Stainless Steel Coffee Pot

At work we have stainless steel coffee pots. When the pots get nasty, I put dish washing detergent (enough to cover the bottom) and the hotest water that I can get from the faucet. Let sit for quite a while. Then I stick a scrubby or dual sidded sponge in and move it around. They come out as good as new. (12/28/2006)

RE: Cleaning a Stainless Steel Coffee Pot

Go to the brush/broom section of a department store. Buy a good stiff bristled toilet brush with a head that will fit into your coffee pot.. Shake some non abrasive powder or vinegar into the bottom of your coffee pot, and scrub away with the brush. It cleans everything right up. Keep the toilet brush in a special spot, labled, so you can never mistaken it for the toilet LOL I use one in my dishwater for scrubbing pots and pans. Works like a charm, and you can use the hottest tap water without burning yourself. (12/29/2006)

RE: Cleaning a Stainless Steel Coffee Pot

When I was working in the restaurant we cleaned the pots with crushed ice and salt. The ice was the scrubber and the salt cleaned off the oils that stuck to the sides of the pot. Just put about a cup of crushed ice and a couple of teaspoons of salt in and swirl the pot around. Once a month we bleached the pots. Your home coffee pot probably wouldn't need bleach every month.
