How to descale a kettle in five minutes: no chemicals or citric acid needed
It is no secret that the strongest enemy of scale is citric acid or a special chemical agent.
But what to do if there is no lemon or effective chemicals at home?
In such a situation, a trick with potato peels that few people know about will easily help.
You will also need 1 tablespoon of soda per 1 liter of water.
Take note
First, pour soda into the water in the kettle. Remember that you need to do this after boiling the water so that the soda dissolves well.
Next, you need to continue boiling the water for another ten minutes. You can increase the time if the scale is very old and practically does not come off.
Finally, you will need to throw potato peelings into the container. The starch they contain will instantly make the scale leave your kettle alone, successfully softening the deposit.
Important note: this method is only effective for metal, ceramic or enamel teapots that are placed on the stove.
