Scale in hot water kettle

Kettle should be a common electrical appliance in our life. Bian Xiao usually lives in a dormitory, and there is no water dispenser, so he can only use a hot kettle to boil water. However, Bian Xiao found that after a period of use, a large amount of yellow and white scale would be deposited on the bottom of the kettle, which looked dirty and it would take longer and longer to boil the water. Use the following four small methods to remove the scale from the kettle every time, and the kettle will be brand-new after use.

1, aged vinegar

Most people only know that vinegar can remove dirt, but they certainly don't know that aged vinegar is the best way to remove dirt. We can pour some old vinegar that can cover the scale into the kettle, then plug in the electricity to boil and let it stand for half an hour. After vinegar softens the scale, we can easily wipe it off with a towel.

2. Potato skin

Potato skin is also a good thing to scale. We can put peeled potato skin into a kettle, add water that can cover the scale and potato skin, turn on the power supply and let it boil, then stir with chopsticks for 5 minutes, and then let it stand for about 20 minutes to soften the scale. Finally, wipe the scale with a clean cloth and rinse it with clear water.

Step 3: cold water

Many people don't understand, how to remove scale in cold water? In fact, we can use the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction to make the scale fall off naturally. Specifically, first prepare a pot of cold water, connect the empty kettle to the power supply and dry it. When we hear the kettle make a violent noise, we will cut off the power supply, pour cold water into the kettle, and then repeat this process for about 3 to 5 times, and the scale will fall off on its own.

4. noodle soup

Both noodle soup and rice washing can remove dirt. We can pour the soup or rice washing water left after cooking noodles into the kettle, then boil it with electricity and let it stand for half an hour. When the scale becomes soft, it can be easily wiped off.

Scale is an inevitable problem when using a kettle. To slow down the scale deposition, you can put a magnet at the bottom of the kettle, which can not only reduce the scale deposition, but also soften the water quality and make the water drink healthier.
