If you don't get rid of scale, it will spoil the quality of the water.

The easiest way to solve this problem is to heat up one popular drink in a kettle.

We're talking about cola.

You need to let the open bottle of drink steep for a bit, and then pour it into the teapot.

As soon as the liquid heats up (it is not necessary to bring it to a boil), you can turn off the heat. The product should be infused for about half an hour to an hour for the process to begin.

The scale will quickly come off the sides and bottom of the cookware.

Then all that remains is to wash the kettle in the classic way using a sponge and dishwashing liquid.

A regular lemon will also help against scale.

It is enough to cut the fruit into slices, then place it inside the teapot and pour water. The product needs to be boiled. Afterwards, it needs to be left to brew for about half an hour so that such a lemon solution cools down and starts to work.
