In my use of the product it takes out streaks and makes refrigerator surfaces look smooth and streak free. I have never used it on anything coffee stained. I would suggest a scratch less soft scrub, then the stainless cleaner would bring back the shine.

Unfortunately, I bought this for using to clean the surface of my newly purchased SS refrigerator. So I don't have any experience in using it to clean coffee stain. My purpose was to clean the finger prints on the SS refrigerator. However, my experience with cleaning fingerprints with this product was not that satisfactory. First of all, it takes more than one or two wipes (go over the prints) to clean. It is more like taking your elbow grease to clean. Secondly, you have to clean the whole area, spot cleaning will leave the impression on the surface. So in order to see the whole area clean, you can not just clean the finger print spots, you have to clean the whole area (whole door) with a lot of strength and energy. Remember, one or two wipes don't do the job. I am guessing that you may still be able to clean the coffee stain, but you really have to work on it.

Without actually seeing the grinder it's difficult to say what the problem is. Stainless doesn't rust easily and so I would be inclined to believe what you are seeing is lubricant from manufacturing turning color. Try washing it with Dawn dish soap and a white Scotchbrite scrubber. Be sure to dry the grinding stones very well. You can do that by grinding a hopper full of coffee beans.

Does tis product stain easily? for example if you left a coffee mug wth a little coffee on bottom, will it leave a coffee stain forever? thanks!!

Hi Charles. I too do not want my coffee to have ANY modifications to the original coffee bean's tastes. I simply rinse the entire apparatus thoroughly with plain tap water each and every I time use it. About once a week I'll use a couple of drops (no more!) of Dawn and a soft sponge on everything, but I've never felt compelled to disassemble any parts; although I suppose you could it just doesn't seem necessary. The instructions say "If it's very dirty" to use a small amount of bleach, but I wouldn't dare use anything so harsh. Besides, after quite a bit of use, it's still squeaky clean. Just keep rising after EVERY use - it'll be fine.

I think espresso is darker, you problem could ask them to send you a picture to your email of both wood stains.

I've had my machine for less than a year, and lately also have not been able to get the water to push through the grounds as it always has. I've taken the baskets apart, cleaned all the filters, made an attempt at descaling, and still, the water flow stops at the grounds. My espresso machine's constipated! I'll try what Bill says, but I'm doubtful. I think it may be time already to shell out more money for repair or another model.

hello from Java Exotic Imports! This low cost espresso machine does a pretty good job. Check you water bin and make sure it is FULLY seated. There is a valve below the bin and the bin must go into that valve. We have noticed on occasions where the bin does not make full contact. Try dropping the water bin hard into the valve to be sure it is seated properly. If you can hear the pump running, it sounds like a seating or priming issue. Try priming again to be sure there is no air in the lines. Hope this helps!

It should be cleaned after each use to keep it from clogging. Removing it will make it easier. First push the button for espresso and then turn the dial to run water thru it. After that yup can remove it and rinse it if you see milk it it. Just hold it under your faucet or sprayer.

No, there are many colors for this stain. Most popular is the Java which is a very dark espresso color. You can view the other colors on the General Finishes website. Hope this helps.

I am not sure, there is must be something wrong with your machine. My coffee is still warn the next morning if we didn't finish the pot from the morning before. It's always got when I make it, so you may want to want to send it back for replacement

Hi, we have had ours for 3 months and I washed it once after a coffe spill. I had the stain for few weeks and it went away in "delicate" machine wash. When I fold my pram I put plastic bag between the organised and the wheel. It is a great product!

Funny you say that..I ordered this espresso machine last Christmas and had to return it because when I opened it it had water all over in the box..I figured the box got wet in shipping. Amazon quickly replaced with no hassle.. how strange!

Not sure if this is the problem of the coffee machine or the variety of the coffee that u are using. Try to use different variety of coffee. I think. Good luck

Greetings Stephanie,First, we love the De Longhi. Returned the first two espresso machines that I purchased, but this one is a keeper. We use it every day.Perhaps mixing some white vinegar with water and run it through the machine will clean it out.

Rice helps! You can also put some lemon juice and salt and swish it around. It will remove any stains and clean the bottom. You'll still have to use soap and water to remove the lemon flavor. It also works on your coffee pot, too :)

Sorry can't help with this one. I only used it once and it left coffee grounds all over the place so I just trashed them.

First did you wash out the coffee pot before use, and second maybe the water. I have never had a problem
