Coffee is also a stress buster for most of the people, but the same coffee can be the reason for stress if it gets spilled on your new couch which you recently bought for your drawing room.
Coffee stains tend to leave a brown stain that will ruin your upholstery if left like that. Well, accidents can happen anytime, anywhere from anyone. And you can’t just stop yourself from drinking coffee, to protect your upholstery from the coffee stain because drinking coffee while watching TV is the best combination.
Here are some methods to follow when you deal with coffee stains:
Method 1: Cleaning Solution
- The first step in removing coffee stains from upholstery will be diluting few drops of cleaning liquid in a bucket of lukewarm or room temperature depending on the type of furniture. Make sure you mix it well.
- Taking help of the paper towels or white towels blot the mixture on the stained area. Do not over add the solution as it can spread the stain.
- After few minutes, wipe the stained area with dry paper towels and notice the stain is removed or still there. If still, you can see the stain or remains of it then blot it with more of that mixture on the stained area. Repeat the process after blotting again so that you can get rid of the coffee stains.

Method 2: Using Vinegar
- Take one spraying bottle and fill one-fourth of the bottle with vinegar. The Reason behind using the spraying bottle to apply or spray the vinegar on the stained area is that it won’t allow the vinegar to get overspill which can be the case if you directly add vinegar from the vinegar bottle.
- Allow the vinegar to set in for at least twenty-five to thirty minutes. By giving time to set that will help vinegar to reach the entire stain area and cover them.
- Wipe the stain with paper towels dipped in warm water. If you can still notice the stain on your couch, you may repeat the process to achieve perfect results.
