Blot the excess coffee spill with a cloth or paper towel. Try to blot up as much of the spill as you can, changing the cloth or paper towel when needed.
Dampen the affected area with cold water using a spray bottle.
Mix 1 part glycerine, 1 part white dish-washing detergent and 8 parts water to make a wet spotter and put the solution in a plastic squeeze bottle.
Apply a small amount of distilled white vinegar and wet spotter directly on the coffee stain. Make sure you only use white vinegar so you don't accidentally create another stain!
Dab the affected area with an absorbent pad moistened with the wet spotter. Leave it there for about 10 minutes or until the pad is not absorbing any more of the coffee stain. Repeat the applying and dabbing process until the stain is gone. Use a new absorbent pad every time.
Flush the affected area with water to rinse off all the residues from the solution. For coffee with cream or milk stain, a greasy spot might remain. If this is the case, continue with the steps below.
Dampen a cloth with dry-cleaning solvent. Gently wipe the greasy spot with it, working outward from the center of the stain.
Mix 1 part coconut oil to 8 parts liquid dry-cleaning solvent to make a dry spotter. Put it in a container with a tight cap.
Dab the affected area with an absorbent pad moistened with the dry spotter. Leave it there for about 10 minutes.
Flush the area with a dry-cleaning solvent.
Wash the wool item as you normally would.
