Clean a Bonavita Coffee Maker in 3 Steps
Step 1 – Clean the Removable Parts
First, the removable parts need to be cleaned.
Removable parts:
- Carafe
- Water reservoir
- Shower head
These parts can conveniently be cleaned by the dishwasher because they are dishwasher-safe in all Bonavita coffee makers.
Otherwise, it is also possible to clean them by hand. Apply detergent and wash them in the sink as you would with dishes.
Once the removable parts have been cleaned, you may discover you need to descale them too. In that case, finish by cleaning the parts with vinegar.

Step 2 – Descale the Coffee Maker
Next, we will apply vinegar to clean the inside of the coffee machine. Fill the water container with two cups of vinegar and press the start button as if you were making coffee. Without adding the coffee itself, of course.
Let all the vinegar run through the machine and collect the vinegar in the carafe. Subsequently, we will rinse the inside of the machine by repeating this step with 3 cups of water.
Nerdy Fact
When hard water is heated the minerals in the water tend to latch to the heat source.
That’s why all sorts of appliances that involve warm water require regular descaling.
Step 3 – Final Cleaning
Finally, we will be cleaning the outside of the machine with a wet cloth or sponge. Don’t forget to clean the heating plate while doing so.
At this point, we rinse off the removable parts that may still have vinegar on them. Dry them and put the coffee machine back together.
