Coffee Stain Removal Hints

Coffee stains can be removed easily using this method. The stain can be removed much more easily if not allowed to dry.  Blot the stain with a clean white cloth to remove any excess liquid.  Mix a teaspoon of a good dishwashing detergent, such as Dawn, with a cup of lukewarm water.  Sponge the area with the dishwashing solution, then blot again with your clean white cloth. Next, mix 1/3 cup of white vinegar with 2/3 cup of lukewarm water.  Once again sponge the area with this solution, and blot again with a clean white cloth. Rinse with clean water, and launder as soon as possible, following the care label instructions. Carpeting can be cleaned using the above method and ingredients.
