Once made hotdogs in an electric kettle and this is 100 percent true
+5 psychological damage to Brits
I was 19. I thought I would be able to clean it.
:(
A roommate once descale our kettle with vinegar ... it wasn't usable for days. But he learned his lessen after we made him taste a cup-a-soup from it right after.
Why so? I do that too, and just rinse it a few times
Because the taste sticks around forever. A "few times" won't remove it. You have to rinse it dozens of times and at that point you're just wasting water and putting the limescale back in.
Were you using balsamic vinegar, or something else like that? Cause with normal vinegar it doesnr
I'm not a vinegar expert. Just use citric acid or lemon juice. It just as acidic and works great, most households have it and it won't even stink up the kitchen.
