How do I get a burnt coating out of a glass pot?

Question

How do I get a burnt coating out of a glass pot?

Answer 1

Take some Ice and salt lots of both then place it in the pot and swirl it around, repeat as necessary

Answer 2

try easy off oven cleaner! i use it all the time 2 make pots and pans an easy clean up. works great!

Answer 3

I would try a dryer sheet in the pot and fill with hot water and let sit overnight, if that doesn 't do it then try denture cleaning tablets and do the same, let them sit overnight.

Good luck!

Answer 4

I know how you feel i have done much the same with a glass pot I own and its come through OK.



Cover the bottom of the pot with lots of salt and add just enough liquid to cover the salt - when I say lots i mean about half a cm of salt.



Now put it on a really low heat with the lid on. Keep checking it to make sure it doesn't dry out - add water to keep it moist but not enough to dissolve all the salt. The baked on black stuff should become really brittle and come off. You can help it on its way with a wooden spoon.



You have to make sure not to scratch the pot so don't use anything metal to clean it. You can get the final bits off with one of those green scourers.

Answer 5

Salt and ice works best. I worked at Burger King and that's how we got all our coffee pots cleaned out. Repeat it as often as neccesary.

Answer 6

Several people answered correctly. Salt and ice cubes work extremely well. If you have any lemons, you can also squeeze some juice in, too. No need to scrub with abrasive pads or use any smelly ingredients. Simply swirl the ice, salt and lemon juice around. If it's burnt real badly, do it a couple times. Leave some bleach and water in the pot overnight to get those last few specks if necessary. Most bartenders and food servers know this trick, because we are constantly leaving empty coffee pots on the burner when the bar or restaurant gets busy.

Answer 7

Putting some ammonia and water in it to soak overnight should loosen the rest enough to come off with more of the baking soda paste.

Answer 8

I've burned a coupla pots myself, even my glass pots. What worked for me was getting out as much of the crud as possible by scrubbing then I soaked it in straight bleach for a couple of days, it took it out and yes I had a little scrubbing to do afterwards but it did come out .Hope this helps

Answer 9

Coca Cola, filled to above the burn marks and no less than 1 inch deep. Simmered for 30 minutes and keep topping it up to the starting level.



It's one of the most caustic substances available.

Answer 10

I hope you get down to this point, because some of those suggestions were terrible. Don't use regular scouring powder because it will scratch. Use Bon Ami, it has the newly hatched chick and the motto, "Hasn't scratched yet." That's because it's made from talc, which is softer than glass. You can either rub with a wet paste of this, or mix with water and "paint" over it, rubbing it off with a dry paper towel after it's dried. You could also try coffee grounds. They're good to shake in a bottle with a little water to clean it out. Mildly abrasive, but I think your stain's too hard for this one. Last resort, check with an auto parts store and ask them if they have a fine compound used to polish windshields. This is a superfine abrasive that will grind glass away, so it HAS to remove the stain. It doesn't remove more glass than just to polish the surface. Be gentle until you know how it works. Rubbing by hand shouldn't be too risky, but you can ruin a windshield with a power buffer. Another place to get fine abrasive is telescope/astronomy supply houses. They carry a wide variety of abrasives for grinding telescope mirrors. The finest powder, of course, must leave a shiny surface with no scratches ready to be silvered.



But I think that when something like this happens, you have to mechanically grind it off. If you use the right powder, it's good as new. Skip the acids that were suggested, this is carbon fused to the glass. The only thing that might dissolve it is carbon disulfide, carbon is inert so most every other chemical will be useless. The abrasives you have around the house are either too soft or they scratch.

Answer 11

Put some water in it bring it to a boil, then let it sit over night. Rinse it out, and scrub with a dish towel. If that doesn't work repeat. Also diet coke is a great cleaning agent. Unlike coke it's not sticky when it dries.



PS- Honestly you may be a bit screwed. Glass is a liquid. (A very slow very viscus liquid. If you look closely at a pane of glass in a 50-100 year old house it's thicker at the bottom than the top from the glass slough) When heated it gets less viscus and materials will infiltrate the surface of the glass. Normally this isn't an issue as liquids boil off and cool things down. Once everything has boiled off temps rise, and the glass starts to get less viscus.

Answer 12

I have left tea bags on to steep in a non-stick pot before. Since I never turned off the burner, by the time I made it back to the kitchen there was NO liquid left and everything was burnt to my pot. That wasn't the only time I did this either. Once it was six lemon halves! I have also had incidents in my glass and metal bake-ware. This always works: Fill the pot at least 2/3 full with water, add some dish washing detergent (one large spoon full for small pots, two for medium, and 3 for large). This works great since it is made to dissolve food! Cover and put the pot on the stove at low heat. Now, let the pot sit all day or all night. Depending on when you are home most (and awake) Check your pot from time to time. Add water to maintain an almost full pot. Stir with a sturdy spoon or spatula occasionally to scrape at the food residue. If the water becomes murky, empty the pot, scrub with a plastic brush or a green scouring pad, and start from step one. Don't worry, it shouldn't scratch. With time (an hour to 2 days) your glass pot will look like new!

Answer 13

Try putting about a cup of vinegar in it, and bring to a boil. Let it soak for a while, then scrub with a scratch pad. Be careful what you're scratching it with, though. Sometimes cracks can cause the pot to break when heating. Once the vinegar removes as much as it can, scrub with baking soda on the scratch pad. No need to be shy with the baking soda! I've used both the vinegar and the baking soda successfully in removing baked on grease. Also, vinegar is superb for removing coffee stains--and just about anything else for that matter--so it should work well with the burnt tea. Seems like no matter what ends up working for you, it sure is a stubborn mess that is going to take lots and lots of old fashioned "elbow grease" to completely get it out. Best of luck!

Answer 14

Not sure if this has been used yet as an answer. Put salt in the bottom of the container, add some ice, water and vinegar. If you do not have vinegar use lemon or anything with acidity. not sure why you use ice in this equation but i worked at a restaraunt for 10 years and no one seemed to know how to turn off a pot of coffee when it got to the bottom. I have seen the burner left on over the weekend and this still seemd to get the chared remains out. You let it sit for about an hour then swirl. Add more ice and vinegar if needed but it will do the trick on glass everytime. However if you do it to tin it eats through it. To get rid of the vinegar smell, just add some dish detergent and lots of hot water.

Answer 15

Burnt Glass

Answer 16

Tried salt? Salt is a natural abrasive and won't do much damage. Another option would be to try alka selzer. Put some water in the pan and add a couple of those tablets. Leave overnight and in the morning scrub it with saltwater (using a nylon scrubber as a metal one may scratch your pan).

Biological washing powder may be an alternative too. Make a paste with WARM water. This will get the enzymes working and hopefully remove the burnt food :)

Answer 17

Whenever I have a badly burned pot, (not often thank goodness...but it can happen to the best of us!!) I put it to boil again with 2 cups of vinegar and a tablespoon of salt... Usually with a brisk 30 min. boil most of it scrapes off with a soft scouring pad and a little baking soda after that. If it's really nasty and crusty....you may have to repeat again...

One extra thing...Your burnt crust is of tea leaves...Once you have managed to remove the burnt crust you will still have a dark stain as tea stains things even whithout burning. Pour some plain bleach in the pot and leave it soak for a little while, say 15 to 20 minutes, that will remove the tea stain after you've gotten rid of the burnt part......

:-)

Answer 18

This will work. It's worked for me alot. Put a couple of tablespoons of electric dishwashing crystals in about 1/3 cup of water into the burnt pot and bring it to a boil (keep an eye on it this time) . When the water is just about boiled up, the char will ooze and flake up. Then let it cool enough not to crack the pot, scrape out what you can and put it in the dishwasher. It works on glass and most other cookware. Sometimes you have to do the first step twice before you wash it. It works!

Answer 19

I have used cream of tartar that is found in the baking section of your supermarket. It is used as a thick paste and left on for 15 minutes and then use a nylon scrubber like Scotch Brite Sponges to scrub lightly. Add hot water and more Cream of Tartar paste and soak again for 15 minutes if the burnt part is really stubborn Make sure you use a scrubber for glass or ceramic surfaces so the pot isn't scratched Also Calgon Water Conditioner that you can find in the laundry soap section of your supermarket will clean it by either soaking in hot water and a half cup of water softener and the scrubber sponge or make a paste with a little bit of water and the water softener and using the nylon sponge scrubbers for glass or ceramic . (Not the calgon that is used for the bath)

Answer 20

There is an abrasive cleaner called TSP or tri sodium phosphate that if you mix in about a teaspoon of salt and let it soak overnight then dump old cleaner out and make fresh batch with warm water, might work. Be careful though, it may also remove any intended coating on the pot. You will also want to wash thoroughly before cooking in it again. You can usually find TSP at a local hardware store. Good luck.

Answer 21

All righty.... my mom owns a restaurant and she has done this for years in all of the coffee decanters in her restaurant.....



Put some comet (not the liquid comet, the old school powder stuff) in the bottom of the glass dish and put ice in (enough to cover the bottom of the pot) and slosh is around and around for several minutes. When you are done with that, rinse the pot out with luke warm water..... the ice acts like a scouring pad (in a sense) and the coldness of the ice freezes the pieces of the burnt stuff. The coment is abrasive, so that will also pick away at the burnt stuff. You may have to do this a few times, but it should definately work!



Hope this helps!

Answer 22

There was a trick that I have used when my son tried to cook some noodles and turned the bottom of my pot black and I scrubbed and scrubbed and nothing worked until I was reading this home solutions book that told me to try placing a fabric softner sheet (dryer sheet) in the pot with a little bit of hot water ( enough to cover the dryer sheet slightly) and let it soak over night. It worked for me, all the black stuff was floating up in the dryer sheet. Then I scrubbed just a little bit and the pot was clean.

Hope this helps

Answer 23

Mary you said you tried bleach. It requires some elbow grease after soaking in bleach w/some water. You must soak it for a couple of days and then do it again. Use one of those pads that doesn't scratch. I have "rescued" many glass pots this way. for over 40 years I've used this method. IT DOES WORK.



Do not use sos, steel wool or an abrasive or the pot will be useless except for display purposes. Believe you may have given up on the bleach too soon.

Answer 24

Have you heard of Dawn Power Dissolver? It works great for me when I have something boil over on the stove. Just squirt it and leave it set for 1/2 hour or so (maybe long enough for you to play a few games on Yahoo!) and come back to it and wipe it out. It may take a little rough scrubbing with a soft cloth, but I find this to be the best and easiest way to fix my burnt on problems! Good Luck with whatever method you use!

Answer 25

After you soak it in baking soda, let it boil for a few minutes as before. Pour that out and use a little baking soda on a clean sponge and rub the stain in a scrubbing motion. It should come out. If all else fails, use a little clorox gel so you do not scratch the pot.

Answer 26

The first thing I would have tried once it cooled a little would have been crushed ice.But now that its been a while it won't work.



First, what kind if glassware is it?



Try, Castrol SuperClean (Walmart) full strength having heated the pan up with HOT water. Scrub with a green pad. USE GLOVES with SuperClean. Also since its carbon deposits maybe carburetor cleaner.



Take a propane or butane torch and really turn the substance to cinders, but before that last ditch effort try using Soft Scrub.

Answer 27

Let soak in hot water and after soak the burnt spot in dish washer for as long as you think it should be soaked depending on how burnt the spot is. Then use a regular scrubber that usually scrubs off grease and scrub it off. It will usually come off but if the burnt bottom stays it's because the steel (or what ever type your pot is) is burnt. If it is then it will not come off or occasionally when you use it more and more it'll fade.

Answer 28

Oxyclean puts out a new product - a foaming cleanser. Put some on your pot, dribble a little water, enough to make it foam and wait. Then get your green scrubby that won't scratch the glass and watch how easily it comes off. I just did this with really old burnt stuff and was amazed. If it doesn't all come off the first time, try again. Be patient. It will come off.

Answer 29

put, like, a few tablespoons of baking soda into the pot & also pour water about 1/3 of the way or so (basically so the baking soda dissolves) then put the pot on the stove & turn on the stove so that the water boils (but make sure it doesnt overflow)



after a few minutes of boiling, pour the soda-water into the sink & then the pot should be A LOT easier to scrub

Answer 30

Fill your pot with water. Squirt in a little dish detergent. Add a little Lemon juice and a little baking soda. Heat on stove--DO NOT BOIL. When heating, scrape the sides and bottom of pan with spoon or spatula. When pan and water are good and hot use a BRILLO pad to scrub the remaining particles off the pan. Use a little muscle!

Answer 31

That sounds like a stain, not burnt anymore. It was only tea, right?



Now if you had a thick layer of burnt, fill pot with water and just boil it 'til all the little chunks rise up to the surface. When water boils down, refill if necessary until all the crust lifts itself off the bottom of pan.

Answer 32

Baking Soda is the best. Add a small amount of water to baking sode in the pot and make a paste. Use one of those small sponges with the scouring end on one side and scrub the burnt coffee out. Done it many times.

Answer 33

Ok, it is glass and not metal so here is a fool proof way to get the burnt stuff off....Regular Easy Off Oven Cleaner...Yes!!! Oven cleaner!!! When you clean an oven, most have glass windows in the door so you can see the food. That gets sprayed, and the oven grime comes right off....I had a pyrex baking dish, that after so much use got all funky with just stuck on unable to scrub off stuff. I used the regular oven cleaner, not the fume free, and sprayed it on, let it sit, and rinsed it off, looked brand new!!! It may take a few applications depending on how much stuff is on your pot, BUT it WILL WORK!!!!! I swear!!! the inside and outside you can spray, and yours will come as clean as mine did.

Answer 34

My mother-in-law gave me this hint. I baked something and ruined the glass dish. She told me to soak it in really hot water and pour a good amount (like half a cup) of Cascade in the dish and let it sit overnight. I have best luck using the granules verses the liquid dish washing soap to remove burnt on items.



It worked like a charm, next morning it peeled right out and was able to be washed and cleaned.



Tip: It wasn't the last time I burned something. There have been times I have had to re-soak a pan it a couple of times with the extra hot water and Cascade to get it all out.



Hope this helps to save your treasured pot.

Answer 35

Get a spray bottle of Dawn Power Dissolve, it will remove it. Spray the entire pan, you might want to wear gloves if you have sensitive skin rub it all over the coating then tie it up in a plastic grocery bag, let it set for several hours. In a few hours just wash it, maybe use a SOS/Brillo pad and should come right off. I have saved many pans with this great product. You can buy in the grocery store its near the dish detergents.

Answer 36

Please use the following formula and see. You have to have some patience of course! :-)

Squeeze two lime in to a glass. Add plenty of salt. Then fill this in the blackened pot. Boil it for say 3 minutes. (Don't watch games while you do it) Let it cool and leave it over night. Next day empty the stuff and scrub with some cloth. It ought to get rid of the stuff. Mostly boiling the lime and salt will. You can add more than 2 lime (Imean the fruit) Incase you cant get lime, try unripe oranges.

Answer 37

I heard soaking a dryer sheet in the pot or pan with hot water helps to lift stains. Also try silver cleaner or GOOF OFF. If all else fails, call a glassier/glass company and see if they have any suggestions. Good Luck! Oh...and I hear RAVES about the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser! Worked for burnt on stuff on my stove top!

Answer 38

In my experience stubborn burnt stains takes time and patience. Boiling and scrubbing works best for me, but you have to repeat the process several times. Usually comes off in a day or 2, but if you burned bad, might take longer. Just keep repeating what works best for you (boiling with baking soda it seems). Try something different every now and then. And keep repeating. Don't get too aggressive or you might damage the coating. Just patience and persistence. The most stubborn wins.

Answer 39

I have a glass pot and when it gets that way I just put it in the sink to soak over night with some liquid soap in it and wash it out the next day. Yes I hear that cola may work due to its abrasive nature but it must soak for atleast a week. I wish you the best Mary and always have if you know who I am. Someone who cares!

Answer 40

stake a fabric softener sheet like Downy- fill the pot with water and put the sheets of fabric softener in it . OK now wait- let it soak- this stuff takes tar off my car. From the road 2 burnt pots and pans look new- I swear by it- have no idea why it would work so well but it cleans like a gem everything i have ever tried- even clean the oven and fridge with it- sorry starting ranting- when you find something that is so grt8 it really tickles you. Try it you'll swear by it later on and be using it to clean everything.

Answer 41

This is going to sournd really crazy but..use arm and hammer laundry detergent. Put it in a would and add just enough to make a paste, use a sponge and gently but firmly rub in. Then rinse let soak with hot water for about five minutes. This will release it coat by coat. It will take time. WHen you get to the final coat of burnt. Use soft scrub with bleach.

Answer 42

Gee,the Coke didn't do it?....man,that's messed up...!

One goodie that I heard is to fill the pot with boiling water and add a couple of fabric softener sheets. I have used this routine to slide gunk out of a totally carbon-encrusted pot within 30 minutes.You'll be able to get whatever's left off with a very mild abrasive.You don't want to scratch the glass so make sure the abrasive's MILD.

Answer 43

This works amazingly and you won't have to scrub. Very safe and inexpensive to. Pour baking soda at the bottom of the dry pan, then add vinegar. It will bubble up. Just wait until the fizzing goes completely down then wipe out the glass pan. Repeat until all burned food is gone.



I learned this trick when I worked with men that cooked, badly, and I had to clean up the mess.

Answer 44

"wotana..." is correct.



The best way I've ever seen is to put in some dishwasher detergent (not dishwashing detergent but it may be worth a try) and boil the pot gently. Usually this will loosen all the burnt on stuff so it either floats off or can easily be scrubbed off.



You may need to repeat the process a couple of time to remove it completely.



Good luck!!

Answer 45

Take the pot ,fill it up with water. Boil it on the stove right at low to medium high(depends on the type of stove). Do that for about 5 or 10 minutes or until all the stuff is floating and you can see the bottom. Be very careful NOT to boil the water at a high temperature,it will explode since its glass. Thats the best energy ,stress free way to get rid of that stuff!

Answer 46

OK you said a glass pot right? I have never burned tea but when my husband burns coffee I fill the coffee pot with ice and then pour in alot of salt and shake the coffee pot in a circular motion. Make sure the pot is not hot or it will crack it. Also when you go to rinse it out do not use hot water or it will crack it. Good Luck

Answer 47

I have burnt my glass pot a few times and i still use baking powder. I leave paste on for 24 hours or more scrub and do it again till able to scrub. My mother used to tell me to cook rubarb in burnt pot that is old method as well. So try baking powder until most of stubbon burn gone then i use ajax or similar to scrub and i havnt ruined any pot and i use on stainless steel as well.

Answer 48

I've read this and I've tried it with burnt on food, Take a Bounce dryer sheet maybe 2or3 if ya want more action, and fill pan with water covering the problem areas and float the dryer sheets in the water it may loosen up the burnt areas. I bet ya think I'm crazy. But I've seen it work!!! Also there is a product called Urnex its used for cleaning coffee pots maybe it would work also.

Answer 49

I think you should try Spray 9. I use it to clean out my tea pot because it becomes sooooo dirty, stained, and caked on from letting the tea simmer away on the stove for too long. Just spray some in the pot and swish it around and let it sit for a few minutes, mabe five and then rinse and wash normally. If there is still some residue, repeat. It's a really strong cleaner, it's used in hospitals, and I just love it!!!

Answer 50

Something like this happened to me also this week when I was on Yahoo Answers (it is also addictive), but it was with my favourite stainless steel pan. I tried most of the homemade remedies listed above, but nothing worked. So, my last resort was to use my small electric hand sander, with a very fine wet sand paper (the finest, black kind). It worked like a charm, without efforts and in less than a few minutes my pan was like new again. Will it work on a glass pot? I don't know, but it is worth trying on something else made of glass before you try this on your pot.

Answer 51

I found that if you put water in the pot put it on the stove and wait for it to boil the turn off the stove wait till it cools a little then put some lemon juice in it and rub it should work well in getting the pot back to where it should be.

trial and error but the lemon juice will cut through the mess. you must boil water in it first then clean with the juice. Worked for me. I also do this when my coffee pot gets burned. boiling water softend and the juice cleaned it to like it was new

Answer 52

What I have found to work the best and the easisest is to take some crushed ice and a few slices of lemons and place them in the glass pot and swirl it around. The ice works to cut the stain while the citric acid in the lemons provides the cleanser. This is also good to use on your coffee pot about once a month to keep it looking new.

Answer 53

i am so sorry this has happened. do not feel like a fool, i have done this also. I have a set of viionware pots from grandma that I love. whenever i get a burnt coating or just stuck on gunk, i use a product called DAWN DISSOLVER. it really works. it cost about $2.50 and you spray it on the pot , let it stand and then you wash it. OR once you have it cleaned to the best of you ability spray on some oven cleaner let it sit for a few hours though then scrub.

hope this helps

Answer 54

For burnt-on or baked-on--- Mix some water and cream of tartar(in your spice cabinet) together to form a paste. Cover the area you want to clean with it, let it sit for a little while (about 5 minutes or so) then scrub off with an abrasive pad. Repeat as necessary.(Works very well on stove tops with burnt-on food)



or



If it is just like a stain on the glass... try Oxiclean.

Answer 55

Take the pot outside and spray it with oven cleaner (use the no fume variety) - wait the length of time recommended by the manufacturer and then try to wipe it clean. This is always my last ditch effort to save a pan and it has always worked. Wash the pan thoroughly several times before use. Good Luck.

Answer 56

Get the pot a little hot with a tiny bit of water, take it off the stove,put a little lemon juice and some salt, shake it around a little put 2 ice cubes in it and it should come right off...I do that on coffee pots that get burnt.

Answer 57

I had this happen to me.

Take some Vinegar and a few Pennies.

Completely dilute the pot stain with regular vinegar drop in a few pennies--make sure that the vinegar rises far above the stain--at least a half of an inch.

This is going to have to sit maybe 2 days----refill vinegar as needed. Swirl around pennies every 12 hours or so.

After 48-72 hours you should be able to Brillo the remaining crust which should be soft by then------

Hope this works for you--it did for me!!!!!!!

Answer 58

This one will definitely work. It will both scrub and polish the glass surface. But you must have patience and put a lot of effort.



Go to an auto supply store and but a small tub or rubbing compound. This compound is a paste that has fine grits of diamond or aluminum oxide. The first part is coarse and the second is very fine. The coarse for removing most of the material and the second is for polishing to a mirror finish.



Have fun.

Answer 59

Fill the glass pot about 1/2 full with chipped or cubed ice. Put in about 1/2 cup of water. Swirl and swish for several minutes. Repeat until glass pot is clean.

Answer 60

Take some ice and regular salt put it in the glass pot and swirl it around.(use a good bit of both) Some times it takes a few times but it should loosen it up a good bit so that you can scrub it out. Sounds silly but it works, alot of resturants use this method to get burned coffee out of their coffee pots. But just remember,, dont put it under hot water or it might burst! Good luck!

Answer 61

Well, this is for bumper sticker residue, but it should work if the salt and ice didn't. Yes, use coke or Pepsi, however, take some aluminum foil and wad it up and use that along with the soda, scrub yourself to a harsh sweat, cuss a few time, grunt, say a prayer and voila. No more residue!

Answer 62

Steel Wool. You'd think it would scratch the glass, but it doesn't. Just soak the dish in Dawn to get as much of the grime out as you can, then scrub with steel or copper wool. They also sell Brillo pads- steel wool infused with soap. I do this everytime I I get baked on stains like with lasagna or meatloaf and it gets the glass super clean and like new again.

Answer 63

I didn't read through all the answers because there are over 200 of them, but have you tried putting ammonia in the pot and letting it soak overnight? If that doesn't work, you might try spraying it with oven cleaner. Hopefully, by now, you cleaned it out though :-)

Answer 64

Hi,



When i worked at a resturant we used Fairy Liguid and warm water. Leave it in the pot to soak for a while and this should remove most of it. If not try Fairy Power Spray or Cillit Bag. Don't scrub ur pot as this may scratch the glass.

Answer 65

Try heating up some white vinegar in the pot. Vinegar is great for cleaning glass.



Just a warning about the ice and salt method someone else posted here: I tried that once to clean a glass coffee pot, and it cracked the pot.

Answer 66

This is related to biker's answer. Many years ago I worked in a 7-Eleven store and occasionally we had to deal with burnt coffee pots. we used to put Slurpee in the pots and swirl it around. The finely crushed ice made for a decent mild abrasive and got the stuff out in no time. So if you're not far from a convenience store, get some Slurpee or Icee or whatever they're selling and use that.

Answer 67

OXYCLEAN.

That stuff is nuts! Put about a tablespoon in the bottom of the pot and add a cup or two of water. Let it sit for a couple minutes and then swirl it around the pot. It will break up the burnt stuff and your pot will look perfectly new.



TRY THIS TOO: Add about a 1/2 cup of Oxyclean to your dishwasher along with your regular detergent and your dishes, glasses and especially any plastic containers will be SO CLEAN

and sparkly you won't believe it!

I add a little to every dish load now and even the dishwasher itself is super clean and fresh and looking great for it's 18 year old self.

Answer 68

Try some ice and salt. I've worked in restaurants for years, and have seen many a waitress use this method to clean burnt coffee off the carafe. Just put a couple cups of ice and about half cup of salt in the pan and swish it around....worth a shot. Seems like you've tried alot of things, so I don't think this can hurt. But I wouldn't go crazy trying to save a pan. If you can't get the burnt stuff off, you may have to throw it away.....good luck

Answer 69

Spray the burnt on mess with oven cleaner , let it sit and then wipe / scrub off the remainder. I guarantee this will work first time eveytime...for glass pots. After it is cleaned...wash well in HOT soapy dish water and then use as usual.

Answer 70

My Grandmother uses Ammonia. She pours ammonia on the surface of the pan. Then puts the pan in a plastic bag seals it up and lets it sit for a few hours or days. I have used Oven Off because I do not have Ammonia. She has used the same pans for 50years and they come out clean after she's done. Good Luck. Let me know if this works.

Answer 71

Vinegar. Everytime I try it works with anything that is burnt to the pan. Pour some in the pot and heat up on the stove. If the smell is too strong dilute with some water.

Answer 72

I had to get burnt coffee out of a pot one time... I put bleach and hot water in the pot and let it soak for hours. I then used a scrub brush on it... came out perfect!

Answer 73

Use equal amounts of all three and make a paste. Tide powder, Cascade powder and Bleach. Make sure to have good ventilation in the area because it's a powerful smell and fumes. Cake the paste on the pot and leave it on over night to harden. This gets just about anything off.. Hope it works...

Answer 74

I burned a pot pretty badly one time also. i was heating some chili then i fell a sleep for 3 hours. You should just throw the pot away. it will be easier that way. soaking it in tomatos and lime juice and whatever, well thats just silly. you need a caustic like sodium hydroxide. get some liquid plumber and some rubber gloves. soak it for a little while then scrub with a scouring pad. make sure you run it through the dishwasher before you cook with it again or it could burn holes in your internal organs. good luck!!

Answer 75

I was going to say Coca Cola too- that eats anything! And then I thought maybe that goo gone or Wesley's bleach white for white walls on tires. But would you want to cook in it after using that? Ick! So, yeah- I say over cleaner left on for overnight and then boil water in it again. Might work. That's a tough stain you have there!

Answer 76

When I have burnt coffee to a glass coffee pot before at the restaurant I worked at, the owner showed me how to put ice and salt in the pot and swirl it around. This causes a reaction and makes the pot REALLY cold, like making homemade ice cream. This freezes the stuff stuck to the bottom and the ice and salt abrasion rubbing over it chips it off. Good luck!!!!

Answer 77

This is going to sound weird, but I have used this technique many times and learned it from my physics professor. Human urine looses the polymers of carbon that bond from the chemical reaction of the burning. Personally I try and squeege out about a cup cup and a half depending on the severity. Let it soak overnight and take a big chug in the morning then rinse.

Answer 78

What type of dish liquid are you using? I always use Dawn for my tough stuff, in conjunction with with uber hot water to soak for a few hours. Also lemon juice. It's definitely in need of a soak, and if the pot is anything like my late grandmother's which I had a similar problem with, you made need to keep soaking it with fresh hot water and the above. I hope you can get it fixed.

Answer 79

There is a household cleaning product with citrus, it sells under several names like "Orange Power" or "Orange Glow," and I've used this to clean several stubborn kitchen messes that I thought would never come up. Just soak the area thoroughly and leave to sit for an hour or two, should take that stubborn stuff right out. Then, of course, wash your dinnerware thoroughly before using again.

Answer 80

i know! i know! i was watching an episode of "how clean is your house" and they gave tips, so heres what you do,

because its a glass pot buy some coca-cola, boil it in a pot(a clean (non burnt pan) and wait till it really hot(boiling) then poure it into the glass pot, leave it in for a bit,(5-10 minutes) maybe even stir inbetween, then poure it out, and wash it with boiling water(wear gloves) and then the stain should be gone! good luck!

oh and tomatoes don't work.

Answer 81

Put a little lemon juice, salt, Tabasco sauce and ice cubes in the pot then swirl the mixture around in the bottom of the pot until the stains disappear.

Answer 82

Try soaking it with white vinegar and warm water. Then let soak for over night, then in the morning try removing with a scrubby. If that still doesn't work try some dish soap and vinegar together and hot water, when the water turns cold, drain the water off, then try scrubbing off the burnt tea with your scrubby and fresh soap and warm water. I hope this helps, its never failed me. Good luck!!

Answer 83

Try a Magic Eraser or what might also be called any number of things...it's really a melamine resin and it works marvelously to get up the burnt stuff off the stovetops and such. You might also try some of the glass stovetop cleaners out there. The best thing is with the eraser you don't have to scrub hard!



http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=resin+magic+eraser&fr=yfp-t-501&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8

Answer 84

Purchase a chemical called 'Lime a way' You should be able to find it at hardware stores. I have worked in restaurants all my life and we use it for coffee pots that are burned or stained. However, after you use it (let it soak over night) make sure you clean it very very well or the lime a way will make you sick. Good luck!

Answer 85

Do the ice and salt. I have never seen anything burnt that has not come off of glass by this method. In fact, I have even used it to make some of the nastiest looking metal grease catchers under the stove look almost new. You are wasting your time with anything else.

Answer 86

try some lemon slices, ice, and some salt. mix this around in the pot for a few minutes or longer. that should help loosen up the burnt stuff. after that, try a mr. clean magic eraser. it works on everything. and yes, oxyclean is okay for dishes. just wash it out real good afterwards. good luck.

Answer 87

I have a glass tea kettle that needs periodic cleaning. I have always had good success using white vinegar. I let it sit full strength on the bottom of the pot for awhile, then add some hot water and swirl it with a foam brush. I wish you well.

Answer 88

I have used oven cleaner on pots and had good luck with it. Soak the pan with hot water first then the ovencleaner, get the kind that you put in a hot oven.

Answer 89

Rub an ice cube over the burnt areas. We do that if coffee burns in the pot, works wonderful. I also have tried it on my good glass baking pans, and it works well also!

Answer 90

Try white vinegar. Burnt residue is mostly alkaline. Baking soda is also alkaline so that probably won't work. Vinegar is an acid and should react with the burnt residue. Tomatoes, lime juice and coca cola all seem like logical solutions as well, because they all have a high acid content.

Answer 91

I know this works with a burnt coffee pot,put some ice in the pot and then sprinkle salt over the ice and just shake pot back and forth.

Answer 92

Put some water into the pot with a small amount

of dish soap (Dawn is good) then bring it to a boil for about 5 minutes then let it set, should come clean easily. I use this method for stainless steel pots and it works great.

Answer 93

Mix cascade dishwashing machine soap with hot water and let it set in the sink over night. If that doesn`t do it try vinegar and baking soda but be careful because this will make a eruption if you add it too fast.ood Luck to you!

Answer 94

I would let it soak with white vinegar, and you can also put in ice cubes and sprinkle some salt and swirl it around, that used to take burnt marks off coffee pots at a job I had.

Answer 95

try pouring lots salt in the bottom of the pan and then put ice cubes in and stir. sounds weird but the salt acts like a abrasive. this works great for getting coffee stains out of coffee pots also. just rinse well afterword's. (if its really bad you might have to let it soak over night.) good luck

Answer 96

My way may be pretty simple, but this usually works for me: Soak it in hot water with dawn liquid dish soap for a few hours, then use a scour pad to scrape the stuff off after it's been soaking for a few hours. Or try Comet-- that stuff works wonders.

Answer 97

I used to work at Dairy Queen and the best way is what Biker stated above, Get the pot hot pour a lot of salt and ice and swirl. IT's amazing what salt and ice can do!

Just put enough water in the pot to cover the scorched area. Add a drop of Dawn dish soap. Let it simmer on the stove.



PLEASE WATCH THE POT!!



After the water begins to boil, take a spatula and continuously scrape the bottom of the pot. After about 5 minutes the crust should be all gone.

Answer 100

Try lemon juice - it will probably work better if the pan is warm... I worked in a kitchen for a while and we always used it to clean the grill after service so imagine that it would also work on a pot.

Answer 101

You may have permanently stained the class pot! When I have scorched or burned pots I put hot water in with cascade, and let it soak! This I use an SOS Pad on it and a lot of elbow grease!



Another way would be a strong solution of Bleach and hot water!

Answer 102

Believe it or not but this works. I have tried it.



Put a fabric softner sheet (for the dryer) on the burned spot and add water covering it. Let this sit overnight and scrub the next morning.

Answer 103

The best thing I have found to use is salt and ice cubes....put alot of both in and just let it sit. Then swirl it around every couple of minutes....then let sit again....etc etc Then pour out ice and salt and slowly warm up glass with water...then use really hot water and it should just come right off.

Answer 104

Use vinegar and baking soda. Pour about 1/4 cup of vinegar into pot swirl it around, then add baking soda. It'll start to fizzle, scrub gently.

Answer 105

Oven cleaner is the most efficiant way. you have to let it work for some hours before (ware gloves as it's a toxic)

Otherwise, dish washing machine powder, cheap clear vinegar that you soak and add tiny water and boil (the last is a grandmothers tip and it works, as well)

Answer 106

Trust me this should work for you....... use ice cubes and grab that cheap box of table salt and pour generously , then swirl the pot around and around maybe add a little bit of warm water, or vinegar but it does a great job on coffee pots and they taught me this in restaurants and my daddy always cleaned his coffee pot like this. dollar tree and general dollar sells a cleaner called awesome for 1$ it does a great job for tar and grease and blood and all the other stubborn things we get into . Good luck hope it works for you!

Answer 107

Put a little Dawn Dishwashing liquid and some water in the pan. Boil it. That should loosen it up enough to get it out. You might need to use a brillo pad afterwards too, but the Dawn always helps me.

Answer 108

I've heard that if you put 2 cups of water,a tablespoon of salt and an onion,peeled and quartered and let it boil for a while,then let it sit overnight,that the burnt stuff will come off.I've never tried it,but there's no harm(just don't let it burn as well LOL)Good luck!

Answer 109

I agree about the ice and salt....but also a bit of lemon



You must continue swirling this mixture, dump, repeat.....it is the best known secret in all restaurants for how to salvage a burnt pot.



The lemon is important because it adds the needed acid

Answer 110

Answer 111

Try the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. I've used it on my pots and pans --- nothing that was burned to the extent you're talking about-- but I'd totally give it a shot! Good Luck!!

Answer 112

If its a coffee pot you can put a handful of crushed ice with 2 or 3 packets of lemon juice in it. Then swirl around untill gone. I guess it would work for cooking pots also.

Answer 113

The best method is to shake salt into the pot and then add ice cubes. Gently swish the cubes and salt on burnt areas. Works every time!

Answer 114

Try a product called "Bar Keepers Friend" It is a lot like Comet, but a bit different. You may need a bit of elbow grease (use your muscles), but since you said it has softened up a bit, it shouldn't be too bad. I once took my bosses coffee pot, after having coffee burnt into it many times, cleaned it with BKF and it came out looking like it was brand new. Give it a try. It's good for a lot of things.

Answer 115

Fill the pot with hot water to get the pot warm again. Then dump the water and add pure vinegar until the pot cools again. Use a non -abrasive pot scrubber and a little elbow grease. this trick always works for me.

Answer 116

First - throw away all of the junk and garage you have in the pot!



then pour hot water up to where the scorching is.



Then put an equal amount of Bleach in the pot and set it aside for several days.



The bleach will make the burnt food softer whch will make it easier to remove with a brillo pad.



Works for me!



Good luck!

Answer 117

as long as the surface is glass, try using enough bleach to cover the scorched area and zap for a minute or two in the microwave--to keep the fumes to a minimum cover opening w/ a towel upon removal from the micro.... if additional help is still needed shoot the glob with oven cleaner (a lot ) forget about it and return sometime later the same day.

Answer 118

Palmolive and brillo pad



First soak your glass pot for more than 2 hours in Palmolive and hot tap water.



When you have loosend all the stuff that is now in you pot along with the original mess...get your brillo pad and start scrubbin'



you might need to repeat...if necessary



Good Luck :)

Answer 119

Soak the container in a half-and-half mixture of water and white vinegar for about 12 hours. After that the stain should just float or rinse off.



I hope this was helpful! (if not, let me know!)

Answer 120

As several people have already mentioned Salt and Ice maybe a little lemon juice. I have waitress-ed for a goodly portion of my life and any food service worker will tell you the same works like a charm, no need to make it complicated.

Answer 121

I agree with Easy-OFF cleaner man.....BUT you NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO REMOVE FIRST!!



That wonderful TEA converted itself into CARBON....Carbon can be scraped off IF it is strictly carbon...but if it's Carbon with sugar compounds...then it's like a rock! UN-BUSTABLE!



So, Easy Off is designed to remove CARBON and Unloosen Sugar based compounds....



But the question I have is......IS this glass pot decorated with any gold/metal banding?? How about any porcelain paints??

Metal banding can get etched but....just don't apply it to banding. Porcelain paints which have been fired is no problem, but a soft-firing can allow the paint to leach out with Easy-Off....



Now obviously you should remove as much CARBON off using a spoon or table-knife 1st....then just apply the Easy-off COLD....wait the suggested time + 1/2 hour.....Keep it moist too...don't let it dry out....It should remove the Carbon....may take a couple times if you don't let the Easy Off soak/soften the crud...

This works for glass coffee pots.....ice and a bunch of salt!! Swish around , then take a small brush after its been soaking for awhile and scrub it out.

Answer 127

The easiest way I have found it to simply use liquid or granulated dishWASHING detergent, the kind you put in your dishwasher, in the pot with a little water. You can heat it up too, but it may not be necessary. I found this trick out when i burnt coffee on the bottom of my glass carafe. It works amazingly well and is so easy!

Answer 128

Put some on your pot, dribble a little water, enough to make it foam and wait. Then get your green scrubby that won't scratch the glass and watch how easily it comes off. I just did this with really old burnt stuff and was amazed. If it doesn't all come off the first time, try again. Be patient. It will come off.

Answer 131

Use BarKeeper's Friend. You will find this product near the Comet and other scouring powders, at Wal Mart.

It will definitely clean the pot without any scratching. Good luck.

Answer 132

Salt and ice cubes work extremely well. If you have any lemons, you can also squeeze some juice in, too. No need to scrub with abrasive pads or use any smelly ingredients. Simply swirl the ice, salt and lemon juice around. If it's burnt real badly, do it a couple times. Leave some bleach and water in the pot overnight to get those last few specks if necessary.

Answer 133

Have you tried the Magic Eraser? Mr Cleans make them and you can get them in any store in the cleaning aisle. I have used them to get impossible burnt stains off of the bottom of my skillits, crayons off the walls, permanent marker off of the kitchen table......they really are magic!

Go buy one and try it. It sometimes takes some elbow grease and sometimes just a little bit comes off at a time, just keep on scrubbing they will work!!



Here's a link to get a coupon for one:

I freeked and then remembered that eraser. I tried it and Mr. Clean eraser saved my butt! Grandma came to visit and was none the wiser. The stains were gone.

an old restaurant trick to clean a glass coffee pot with burnt on coffee is put ice in the pot then pour in plain ol' table salt then swish it around .It works like a charm

Answer 137

i believe using an acid is the only way. Try using acid-containing substances like lemon, orange,( by applying its extracts on the glass pot). If it still remains, you may have to use string acids like nitric acid, sulphuric acid (that too, concentrated acids, not dilute). You can get those from a chemist. Be careful while dealing with acids!!! They can burn your skin away within no time.

Answer 148

PS- Honestly you may be a bit screwed. Glass is a liquid. (A very slow very viscus liquid. If you look closely at a pane of glass in a 50-100 year old house it's thicker at the bottom than the top from the glass slough) When heated it gets less viscus and materials will infiltrate the surface of the glass. Normally this isn't an issue as liquids boil off and cool things down. Once everything has boiled off temps rise, and the glass starts to get less viscus.

Answer 149

I made it back to the kitchen there was NO liquid left and everything was burnt to my pot. That wasn't the only time I did this either. Once it was six lemon halves! I have also had incidents in my glass and metal bake-ware. This always works: Fill the pot at least 2/3 full with water, add some dish washing detergent (one large spoon full for small pots, two for medium, and 3 for large). This works great since it is made to dissolve food! Cover and put the pot on the stove at low heat. Now, let the pot sit all day or all night. Depending on when you are home most (and awake) Check your pot from time to time. Add water to maintain an almost full pot. Stir with a sturdy spoon or spatula occasionally to scrape at the food residue. If the water becomes murky, empty the pot, scrub with a plastic brush or a green scouring pad, and start from step one.

I learned that this weekend the hard way. easy off will also clean those silver things that go on your burners. i was contemplating buying new ones, but i layed them on newspaper and sprayed them with the easy off and let them sit for two hours, after i wiped them clean, they were brand new. good luck and have fun!

Good luck.

Answer 192

Add hot water and more Cream of Tartar paste and soak again for 15 minutes if the burnt part is really stubborn Make sure you use a scrubber for glass or ceramic surfaces so the pot isn't scratched Also Calgon Water Conditioner that you can find in the laundry soap section of your supermarket will clean it by either soaking in hot water and a half cup of water softener and the scrubber sponge or make a paste with a little bit of water and the water softener and using the nylon sponge scrubbers for glass or ceramic .

Sometimes Rice can do that. What I do is get a steel-wool pad and scrape it out with some dish detergent.

Answer 218

The best method I know is to boil a little water in it and add a couple tablespoons of baking soda - be careful, it will foam over the sides if you don't watch it. After it boils awhile, use a teflon scraper and try loosening it. It may take several tries, but most things will come out.

Answer 222

I agree with Jo oven cleaner takes burns out of the oven and works with pots, pans, cookie sheets, etc. any thing that is burned especially good for cleaning stovetop too. It really peels it off easy.........tomatoes, salt, vinegar......never used them never would, maybe lemons but please stop using everything in your pantry.

Answer 223

But I think that when something like this happens, you have to mechanically grind it off. If you use the right powder, it's good as new. Skip the acids that were suggested, this is carbon fused to the glass. The only thing that might dissolve it is carbon disulfide, carbon is inert so most every other chemical will be useless. The abrasives you have around the house are either too soft or they scratch.

Answer 224

Just a little water (not ice) and a lot of salt. Let it sit for a while.

Answer 225

Use dish soap and water then scrub the inside with a rag, toothbrush, ect. Good luck!

Answer 226

Once the vinegar removes as much as it can, scrub with baking soda on the scratch pad. No need to be shy with the baking soda! I've used both the vinegar and the baking soda successfully in removing baked on grease. Also, vinegar is superb for removing coffee stains--and just about anything else for that matter--so it should work well with the burnt tea. Seems like no matter what ends up working for you, it sure is a stubborn mess that is going to take lots and lots of old fashioned "elbow grease" to completely get it out. Best of luck!

Answer 227

Save the effort. Buy a new pot.



Use your mom's pot as an heirloom and make it a new decorative pot that you can enjoy by putting things in it that remind you of her. Keep it in a prominent place so you can reflect fondly of her often.

Now put it on a really low heat with the lid on. Keep checking it to make sure it doesn't dry out - add water to keep it moist but not enough to dissolve all the salt. The baked on black stuff should become really brittle and come off. You can help it on its way with a wooden spoon.

Answer 270

Simple white toothpaste and a clean rag to remove any dark stains. Rub it in gently and rinse.

Answer 271

I've had to do this before, and it is no fun. My method is to scrub as much of the burnt mess off with a stainless steel scrubber pad and sometimes gently scraping at the burnt stuff with a dinner knife, when necessary. When it is free of all the large particles, I pour all the water out of the pot, put in a teaspoon or so of Cameo aluminum and stainless steel cleaner, add just enough water to turn the powder into a paste, and then scrub scrub scrub with a sponge and the scrubber pad until all the burnt stuff is gone. The metal cleaner is a very fine abrasive, and it is the only way I've found to get down to clear glass again.

How about getting a single edged razor blade and scraping off most of the blackened crust. That is what I did when I boiled eggs in a pot after using the same pot with a timer to boil squash EXCEPT I forgot to put on the timer for the eggs. When the smoke alarm went off I was in the same situation you have (except mine was a pot my wife's late mother gave her).



Scraping, particularly in a glass pot, will get it pretty well. Then you can retry some of your other tricks on the little black that is left. A Scotch Brite scouring pad (green scrubby surface bonded to sponge) might be good for final scrub.
