Limescale needs to be removed on a regular basis, otherwise it will become an "extra ingredient" in our hot drinks, which is not exactly healthy.

Therefore, you can find a simple and effective method that you will use on a regular basis.

What options can be considered?

Vinegar

This method is considered by many to be the best quality, as it can easily dissolve even long-standing scale. However, in the case of electric kettles, it is better to look for a more gentle method so as not to damage the equipment.

In all other cases, pour half a glass of water and water into the kettle. Bring to a boil. After that, it is recommended to wait, drain the water and evaluate the result.

Then you need to pour in the water, bring it to a boil again and drain it. This way your tea won't taste like vinegar.

Soda

This method is recommended to be used on a regular basis, as it is gentle and sparing. In difficult cases, it will not be able to help.

You will need to pour one spoon of powder into the teapot and pour in water. It is best to do this when the water has already boiled.

After half an hour, drain the liquid, pour water over the kettle and rinse it. The method is also suitable for electrical appliances.
