Is your kettle broken? Don’t rush to buy a new one! Perhaps you can fix it yourself, like I did.
Just the other day I was cleaning my kettle from scale. I cleaned it the old, well-known way – with citric acid.
I dissolved a pack of citric acid in a teapot, boiled it three times, and washed everything well. The result: a perfectly clean teapot, like new. Just look at how beautiful it is!
The next morning I decided to make coffee. I turned on the kettle – silence in response. It didn’t work. I was very surprised. Could it be that the citric acid had corroded something inside the kettle, and that’s why it broke?!
My husband wasn’t home, there was no one to look… I was already mentally prepared to buy a new kettle, but this one wasn’t old either – only about a year in use. This made me doubly upset…
