Step I: Pour some vinegar into the appliance

Pour some vinegar into the appliance. Measure one quart (32 ounces) of the undiluted white household vinegar. Pour it one at a time into the appliance. Shake the vinegar thoroughly to let it mix completely. Leave the vinegar to settle for some time and have some maximum impacts.

Step II: Seal the appliance

Step III: Power the appliance

Step IV: Re-plug the cord

At the expiration of the 30 minutes interlude, re-plug the cord. This will let your machine pump out the remaining vinegar automatically. While so doing, it will enable the vinegar cleaning agent to have the maximum impact and reach out to those otherwise inaccessible areas or a portion of the best ice tea maker. Switch off the machine after you are through with this process.

Step V: Discard the vinegar

Move on to unplug the cord. Thereafter, remove the pitcher and discard the remaining traces of the vinegar. Simply pour them gently onto your skin and flush out with fresh water. Pour some fresh water into the ice tea maker to get rid of the last traces of any vinegar left.

Step VI: Fill the pitcher with some clear tap water

Fill your pitcher with some clear tap water. Thereafter, repeat the procedures stipulated above a couple of times until you have removed all the traces of vinegar.
