Although scale is harmless, too much scale can affect the performance of your kettle.听To solve this issue, please descale your kettle.
You can use any type of descaling agent (liquid, powder or tablet), and follow the instructions on the bottle or package to descale your kettle.
If you prefer to descale your kettle using vinegar, please follow these steps:
1.听Fill the kettle with water up to three quarters of the maximum level and bring the water to the boil.
2.听After the kettle has switched off, add white vinegar (8% acetic acid) to the maximum level.
3.听Leave the solution in the kettle overnight.
4.听Empty the kettle and rinse the inside thoroughly.
5.听Fill the kettle with fresh water and boil the water.
6.听Empty the kettle and rinse it with fresh water again.
7.听Repeat the procedure if there is still some scale in the kettle.
Note:听if you dislike the smell of vinegar, you can use citric acid.
Note:听Regular descaling prolongs the life of your kettle. In case of normal use (up to 5 times a day), the following descaling frequency is recommended:
- Once every 3 months if you use soft water (up to18听dH).
- Once every month if you use hard water (more than 18听dH).
