Coffee came to India not via colonists, but through Sufi saint Baba Budan, who smuggled seven beans from Yemen in the 1600s and planted them in Chikmagalur, Karnataka. The legacy lives on in every cup of South Indian filter coffee.

Wash with a soft cloth and metal cleaner like Pitambari

Dry immediately to avoid watermarks

For stubborn spots, apply lime or tamarind paste, let sit for 10–15 minutes, then rinse off

Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals
