1. Boil enough water to fill the coffee pot (or carafe) completely.
2. Add the washing powder or cleaning tab to the coffee pot. If you choose to use powder, add a quarter cup of washing powder to the pot.
3. After the water has boiled, pour it into the pot, right up to the brim.
4. Wait 30 minutes to an hour with the lid off. At this point, the cleaning agent will start breaking down the buildup in the pot and you need to sit back and let it work its magic.
5. Next, swirl the water in the coffee pot carefully, making sure you don’t burn yourself. The water is still very hot, so make sure you use gloves. Swirling the water will loosen the gunk from the walls of the pot.
6. After swirling the water a couple of times, empty the coffee pot into your sink. Rinse the pot thoroughly and you will see that the pot is now clean.
7. Brew some cheap coffee and pour it into your newly washed coffee pot. Let it settle in the pot for half an hour. This will remove any soapy smells or compounds that might linger in the pot.
8. Empty out the coffee and rinse it with clean water properly. This will remove the remnants of coffee and any of the cleaning agents.
This method works for both coffee pots and carafes. You can even use it to remove coffee stains from stainless steel thermos without any scrubbing.

I would use vinegar and rinse it really well so that the vinegar taste/smell doesn't permeate into your next brew. :)

I use Liquid Barkeepers Friend. It is soft and will not scratch. Or you can get scratchless brillo pads.

A good scrub with a soft cloth and baking soda will clean out all the old stains and smells. Rinse well and you're good to go!
Hi! I have one that gets that "off" taste sometimes. I fill it with hot water and baking soda overnight. Then just rinse it out before using.
