Getting rid of coffee stains from carpets, fabrics, or upholstery can be daunting. Fortunately, there are a few easy ways to get coffee out of your clothes. These tips follow below. The first two tips are for items like clothing or slipcovers that you can then run through your washing machine. The last two methods are better for upholstery or carpets, since you cannot remove these items to your laundry.
Of the four methods, commercial stain removers do the best job. The other three are effective if you do not have access to laundry supplies, or if you prefer to use a more natural method on your clothing.
If the coffee stain is on your carpet, you can use a variation of the egg-yolk solution mentioned above. Dip a white cloth into a beaten egg yolk and rub the yolk into the stain. Then rinse with clear water and work denatured alcohol into the stain. Rinse with water again and apply a solution of one-half teaspoon of mild detergent in a pint of water. Blot with a white towel. If the stain remains, apply a 50/50 solution of water and white vinegar and blot.
One final tip: if possible never let a coffee stain set. The drier the stain is, the worse your chances are of removing it.
