Will this tabz harm the gold filter basket, can clean stainless steel & glass interior thermos?

Hi. It probably won't harm the gold basket. I've used the tablet with stainless steel coffee mugs and also a gladd interior thermos coffee carafe, so have at it. What this product should NEVER be used for it internal water heating portions of any automatic coffee maker. It's made for those giant cafeteria-type coffee makers, not for home use. But you CAN safely drop a tablet into a stainless steel carafe, wait 'til the water turns blue, then pour the mixture into the next thing to be cleaned. I've used one tablet to clean 5 steel mugs and a carafe. Hope this helps.

Its good stuff, takes scum and coffee stains off, I used it on stainless and glass but not gold. It took off finish of a plated fake chrome on one of my pots. Its good stuff, on right material.

Sorry I don't know about the gold filter basket, but these things work great in cleaning coffee stains off of the metal and glass used on my Bunn coffee maker. When I use them, I don't use a filter, I just place the tablet in the basket.

I can only speak for my thermos, but I haven't see any sign's of rust, but I have seen discoloration from coffee. I have cleaned the inside of the thermos using a non-abrasive kitchen cleaner several times (rinsing very very thoroughly afterward). The inside returns to a gleaming non-pitted finish. I would believe that rust would last through this type of cleaning.

According to the Thermos website, it is NOT dishwasher safe. I've had no trouble cleaning mine by hand, occasionally with the help of one of the commercial cleaners sold for cleaning coffee-makers.FYI, the gaskets for the lid can be purchased separately (cheap) and replaced as needed. Also, one occasionally wants to pry the lid apart into its components and scrub the inside.

Yes absolutely even when is filtering .. but be careful and close properly the lid ..

Amy my answer would be no. I don't believe this particular cup was designed to withstand the high heat inside of a dishwasher. Hand washing has always worked well for me, but you do not want to expose the gasket on the screw in top to any detergent for longer than a few seconds. When the stainless steel gets stained by coffee or tea, put about a teaspoon or two of baking soda in it, pour boiling water on on top of that and let it soak for awhile. The interior of the cup will look brand new again.

Not a good idea. We use a thermos bottle cleaning brush (long handle, soft bristles) and that does a good job. We use filtered water and that does not leave a build up in the bottle.

I have placed the plastic parts and gaskets in the dishwasher on high tempature wash. It cleans up good. I would not buy another one because it is hard to take apart to clean. I do not put the glass insert in the dishwasher.

No. The filter basket assembly is partly plastic with a very fine metal mesh. The seal on the press feels like silicone. Other than discoloration, I have not had any problems with it or think it is deteriorating in any way.

Shona, the lid and pouring spout are heavy duty black plastic, as you see the from the picture, as is the handle and the exterior black wrap.For me these 20 years of using this thermos, there has never been a problem. While the filter and plunger are metal, I could not say they are stainless steel as the body and interior are. Sorry if this makes this dynamo press not a good choice for you.

Sorry, I don't know. I see no working parts that would be damaged by doing so. The stainless steel front could be spotted I suppose by doing so. I just rinse mine out from day to day, then periodically give the insides of the 'tank' a good scrub with Bar Keeper's Friend. Hope this helps.

You probably could after removing metal filter. Make sure there are no metal screws in lid or handle

Yes, mine was shipped from an American distributor who included an independently-branded gold filter. Techni-vorm does not recommend using a gold filter - although they don't explain why. Personally, the paper ones work for me. I don't care for any coffee "grit" in my cup of coffee - although I know plenty of people who prefer using the gold filter. Hope this info helps.

Yes, just make sure to use a paper filter bc the holes in a gold filter do let some fine dust through.

I use it on the inside of pots and pans with no problems..It is the best metal cleaner I have ever used.

I use a coffee filter and drain mine into a bucket. I've reused the same solution to clean 10+ AR uppers and at least 20 pistols. Simple Green works fine as a solution and is cheap. I've not had problems with 'pitting' with any aluminum parts.

Yep, sure will, but metal parts only and after they are removed from the firearm. Make sure to use the solution made for gun parts only and not the brass solution as it can damage certain parts. It can clean just about any metal part that will fit into the basket, just be careful with aluminum as it can turn black. Use the appropriate cleaner only (Lyman or Hornady same things) and stay away from household cleansers like Lemishine for gun parts as it can cause discoloration and leeching.

I routinely use a gold metal Melitta filter on top of my Zojirushi thermos. Fits nicely! Love their mini thermos for on the road.
