Removing Tea Stains From Quick Stir Pitcher

[Karen]

Does anybody have any tips they'd like to share to remove tea stains from the clear quick stir pitchers?

Thank you,
Karen

I'd love to know too. I used the Family QSP a lot last year for sun tea and the stains are bad. No way could I take it to a show unless I was serving sun tea. Hopefully someone will give us some ideas

What about a very weak bleach solution? Or the stand-by baking soda paste?

I put dishwasher soap in mine, fill it up with water and let it sit for a while.

Magic Eraser works great!!!

I use a bleach solution and soak both the plunger and pitcher in my white kitchen sink and the bleach solution does double duty. Which is awesome for a busy mom of 2 young boys

I just squirt a little bit of dishwasher detergent, fill it with water, plunge it a few times and let it set overnight.

I was just wondering the same thing. Mine is really stained from tea. Great suggestions.Is Magic Eraser safe for things you eat off of or out of?

Yes, and no. Once you use the Magic Eraser you'll want to wash it with dish soap.

My husband ALWAYS keeps a gallon of Sweet Tea in the fridge, so mine QSP's are always stained. Every once in a while, I'll just fill the pitcher with bleach water, put the lid on, and let it soak overnight. Comes out sparkling clean. It's amazing. Depending on how strong the bleach water was, I'll run it through the dishwasher afterwards just to get any bleach residue off. Hope that helps!
