I had no idea there were C-master brewers here, I use my C-50 but I have never used my glass behive. I don't like the cloth filter system, I never thought that the Silex glass rod would fit the coffeemaster! What a concept!!!! Will try that this weekend! The best thing to bring back bakelite is buffing with a high speed buffer no faster than 2000RPM ( or you will over heat and burn the bakelite) and a clean buffing cloth made out of cotton. NO COMPOUNDS just the cloth, thats what they did at the factory. If you have a Dremel tool they have cotton buffs that let you get into all the crevices. Jet |

Other things to try might be Jubilee, and car interior protectants like Armor All, Mother's, and Son of A Gun. |

Hey All, Thanks for the replies. It seems like a light buffing may be the way to go. I'm going to check out the cotton buffers for my drill or maybe a Dremel. I've looked at them on line and it seems like a useful tool. The C50 is great. I have been using a C20 with the cloth filters and it really does make great coffee. I never thought I'd put my Bunn coffeemaker aside, but I have. The C50 also makes great coffee. I am experimenting with and without a paper filter in between the two discs. Ralph |
