I know it sounds crazy, but you should never wash a coffee pot with soap. Rinse it immediately after use, and then once a week rinse it with vinegar. There's a sort of seasoning that happens with the oil from the coffee beans, and I know it seems gross, but your coffee will taste much better and it stays perfectly clean as long as you make sure to rinse it right away.
