How to remove scale from an electric kettle

When drinking boiled water, we are usually used to boiling it directly in an electric kettle, which is more convenient and simpler. However, many people will find that if the electric kettle is used for a long time, there will often be scale in it. Long-term use of such an electric kettle containing scale may actually cause some adverse effects on our health. So here I will introduce to you how to remove scale from the electric kettle.

1. Baking soda to remove scale

When boiling water in an aluminum kettle with scale, add 1 teaspoon of baking soda, boil it for a few minutes and the scale will be removed.

2. Boil eggs to remove scale

The scale on the kettle that is used for boiling water becomes hard and difficult to remove after being used for a long time. If you use it to boil eggs twice, you will get the desired effect.

3. Use potato peels to remove scale

After using an aluminum kettle or pot for a period of time, a thin layer of scale will form. Put the potato peels in it, add appropriate amount of water, bring to a boil, and cook for about 10 minutes before removing them.

4. Use sweet potatoes to remove scale

Put more than half of the sweet potatoes in a new kettle, fill it with water, and cook the sweet potatoes. Next time you boil water, there will be no scale accumulation. But be careful not to scrub the inner wall of the kettle after boiling sweet potatoes, otherwise the descaling effect will be lost. For old kettles that are full of scale, after boiling them once or twice using the above method, not only will the original scale gradually fall off, but it will also prevent scale from accumulating again.

Paying attention to healthy and scientific drinking of water is better for our health, but not everyone pays attention to these details in life. So I hope that after understanding the above content, everyone can use this method to quickly and effectively remove scale.
