Cleaning & Care Instructions:
To ensure the longevity, hygienic condition, and continued optimal performance of your Berlinger Haus Coffee & Tea Plunger, please follow these detailed cleaning and care instructions:
Before First Use:
- Unpack all components of the plunger from its packaging.
- Disassemble the plunger unit from the glass carafe. The metal frame and plunger press are typically separate.
- Wash all parts (glass carafe, stainless steel plunger assembly, and stainless steel frame/lid) thoroughly with warm water and a mild dishwashing detergent.
- Rinse all parts thoroughly with clean water.
- Dry completely with a soft, clean cloth before first use.
Daily Cleaning (After Each Use):
- Always allow the plunger and its contents to cool down before cleaning.
- Remove coffee/tea grounds/leaves immediately: Discard the used grounds or leaves. Do not let them sit in the carafe for extended periods as this can stain the glass and potentially leave odors.
- Disassemble the plunger: Separate the glass carafe from the stainless steel frame (if removable) and unscrew the plunger assembly to remove the filter screen and spring.
- Wash all parts:
- Glass Carafe: Wash with warm soapy water using a soft sponge or bottle brush. For stubborn stains, a mixture of warm water and a little white vinegar or baking soda can be used, then rinse thoroughly.
- Stainless Steel Components (Frame, Lid, Plunger Assembly, Filter): Wash with warm soapy water using a soft sponge or cloth. Pay special attention to the mesh filter, ensuring all coffee grounds or tea leaves are removed. A soft brush can be helpful for the mesh.
- Rinse all parts thoroughly under clean running water to remove all soap residue.
- Dry completely: This is a crucial step for all components, especially the stainless steel. Dry immediately and completely with a soft, clean cloth to prevent water spots, streaks, and potential mineral build-up, preserving its shine and preventing rust. Allow the components to air dry completely before reassembling if possible.
Important Considerations:
- Avoid Abrasive Cleaners: Never use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, harsh scourers, or metal utensils on any part of the plunger, especially the glass carafe or the matt cream finish. These can scratch or damage the surfaces.
- Dishwasher Use (Use with Caution): While the stainless steel and borosilicate glass are generally dishwasher safe, prolonged exposure to high heat and harsh detergents in a dishwasher can, over time, dull the matt cream finish, cause water spots on stainless steel, and potentially weaken the bond between the silicone bottom and the glass. Hand washing is highly recommended to maintain the plunger's pristine appearance and extend its lifespan, particularly for the matt cream finish.
- Handling Glass: Although borosilicate glass is durable, it is still glass. Handle the carafe with care to avoid chipping or breaking, especially around the rim.
- Storage: Store the plunger in a dry place. If storing assembled, ensure all components are completely dry to prevent any moisture being trapped. If storing disassembled, ensure parts are dry.
- Plunging Action: When pressing the plunger, do so slowly and evenly. Forcing it down too quickly can cause hot liquid to spray out or put excessive pressure on the glass.
By following these simple care instructions, your Berlinger Haus Coffee & Tea Plunger will continue to brew exceptional beverages and remain an elegant and functional part of your kitchen for many years to come.
