We stood in the store looking at our phones, trying to figure out how to get the coffee stains out of our Klean Kanteens. Elaine had tried the official vinegar-and-baking-soda with no luck. I thought of denture tablets.
We bought three-minute store-brand tablets. Two tablets per Kanteen, warm water, an hour-long soak, and the stains were gone.
There is, of course, a body of lore concerning household uses for denture tablets. This use is the one I thought of and the one I can vouch for.

Works well on cleaning tea stains from china or porcelain teapots, too.
Thanks for the suggestion, Martha. Elaine tried a couple on a bathroom sink this morning — they work really well with porcelain.
Also flower vases, bottles, rain gauges, (anything to narrow or too delicate for a brush.)
Thanks for the suggestions, Elaine. I love learning these tips.
You yearn not for the return of the real Dear Abby, but for Dear Heloise.
Yes, hints, not advice. :)
I just discovered that, as with “Dear Abby,” “Heloise” is now Heloise’s daughter.
