Mold in Drip pot

ashtonlady · 09-14-2010, 10:31 AM

I forgot to clean out my drip pot before I left for vacation for 2 weeks. I came home to blue mold. Is there a way to clean it out or should I just toss it and buy a new one?
It is a Capresso with a gold filter. Thank you for your thoughts.

Clean in bleachy water. Rinse well. Rinse more.

Give it at least 12 hours after rinsing really well, the chlorine will dissipate.
