I went on vacation and left my coffee maker with an old filter. When I came back, it had molded in the container and in areas of the maker. Is there a safe way to clean it or should I pitch it and get another?
Clean it with a water and bleach solution. Bleach kills mold.
fill coffee maker with water and a cap full of vinegar, and run cycle.
white vinegar and water is the safest way to clean a dirty coffee pot
Remove mineral deposits from coffee makers with white distilled vinegar. Fill the water reservoir with 1 cup or more of white distilled vinegar and run it through a whole cycle. Run it once or twice more with plain water to rinse clean.
