How to properly clean your Ratio Eight

But wait, there's more to your machine than just the carafe. The surface of your Ratio Eight may attract some slight discoloration with use. To get it back to sterling condition, we recommend grabbing a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and with a little bit of time, patience, and elbow grease, your machine will look brand new again.

You Will Need:

• 1 Mr. Clean Magic Eraser
• Water
• Patience

Cleaning Process:

• Grab the magic eraser and liberally douse with water.
• Make sure you squeeze out any excess water from the eraser before you start.
• Gently rub the given surface of your Ratio in long, uniform strokes. 
• Try to maintain light downward pressure from your initial contact to final contact with the stained area.
• Do not concentrate too much pressure in one spot, as this will begin to remove metal flake in the finish.
• If your sponge dries out, just repeat dousing with water and repeat the same process.
• When you're finished, be sure to dry the affected area with your microfiber towel and remove any residue from the cleaning process.
