Use a scent-free chlorine bleach. I usually add 1/4 cup of bleach to about a quart of hot water and then soak the diffusers in them. If you can draw water backwards through the diffuser, pushing the bleach solution in and out of the diffuser will really clean it out.

You can just pour the bleach onto the ceramic disc and it will clean it. I've also used Hydrogen peroxide and that was superb at cleaning it too.
