Found this, thought some people might find it useful. click on the carpet cleaning guide and then on the type of stain you have. We have only tiles and boards in the current place but lots of carpet is going into the new place so this could come in handy!

Thanks For that info as I am a professional carpet cleaner this is what I tell all my customers.

For liquid stains such as coke, coffee, red wine, tea and cordial use a steel spoon scrap up excess working from outside to in than use white toilet paper and start blotting repeat blotting with toilet paper until stain/colour is removed.

For any other stain like mustard, wax, hair dye, nail polish, ink call a professional.

If you spill red wine on your carpet add white wine to it first before you try and remove.

What detergent or solution would you recommend for cleaning espresso coffee stains from table cloths and carpet? Would you use a different detergent if the coffee has milk in it?

It all depends on the fabric but if not treated asap than all is lost you would have to call in a carpet cleaner for the carpet and the table cloths soak in napi san or try hydrogen proxide diluted than rinse.
