Deep down, you probably already know this…but your coffee machine is gross! Like super GROSS!

That’s because a new study by NSF found that coffee machines are the fifth germiest place in your homes. Really!? We can’t function without our Kurig!!

Don’t worry, you just have to clean it. Not just wipe it down, but wash all the removable components after each use, wipe the outside of your coffee maker daily and clean the internal components at least once a month.

Will this make you change your behavior? Probably not, right? I mean, we’ve survived this long. And, doesn’t the hot water kinda kill off some of the germs? We can hope so!
