A natural remedy will help get rid of the aroma that will scare away even a big fan of tea or coffee.
It is not uncommon for a new kettle to smell like plastic. Sometimes it is barely noticeable, and in other cases the aroma can be detected without much difficulty.
If the product is in good working order and there are plans to use it in the future, then it is better to remove the smell. A folk remedy that can be found in the kitchen will help with this.
Bay leaf is used to add a special aroma to dishes. The spice is also very effective in combating the smell of plastic.
Place 10 bay leaves in the teapot and add water to the top mark. Boil the liquid, but do not drain it after turning it off, but leave it for 2-3 hours.
After cooling, boil again. Then drain the liquid and rinse with plain water. There will be no hint of the plastic smell.
Boiling with citric acid or juice, as well as table vinegar or soda (2 tbsp) also helps against unpleasant odors.
