Thankyou very much for the great advice. My kettle isn’t in the best condition so I’ll definitely be trying this out! 😅 you’ve earned yourself a subscriber ☝🏾
That scale is pretty tame. When I lived in Essex years ago shower heads, hot tap outlets, steam irons and kettles were all regularly furred up. And very quickly. I used a yellow liquid from Mangers. Brilliant in kettles, the scale dissolved before your eyes, simply pour in required amount immediately after boiling kettle. I used to dunk the shower head in the kettle at the same time. I guess I was being a tight git 😊😊
@@missygaddu hi, my apologies, showing my age a bit, mangers is no more, the equivalent is Kilrock-K (the original) it says on the bottle. Its a yellow bottle. Its very good. Also removes the crystals around urinals from splashes on the floor, plus rust stains from tarmac. Try it, most DIY stores. 😉
Gotta say your channel has lots of great info Georgina, wished I'd found it before we renovated 😁 Still... Lots of good info we can take to improve our place as we go along. 👍 THANKYOU!
@@GeorginaBisbyDIY it is indeed and having a resource and info like your channel is great, we're all learning and good to know things so we can ask contractors if it comes to that. Professionals do the main work obviously, but we still plan on tackling the small "odd jobs" . Your info is great. I only found your channel after watching your dads and he popped up in one of yours and subscribed since 😁👍
Thanks. I followed your instructions and it worked. Do you have an opinion as to the need for the filter in the spout of an electric kettle? Mine has lost its mesh and I have been unable to find a replacement filter. Is it really necessary?
i have been useing this for decades but you do noot need the backing soda just the vinegar. but there is a saftey warning booiling vinegar the fumes are acidic acid and it is in very hight concontrations it can burn mouth through lungs eyes this is no joke but it is only the fumes use can even use boiled vinegar on your chips if you want it is the fumes. only do this in a very very well ventalated room and leave the room untill stoped boiling or better still do it outside. look up fumes from boiling vinegar
am I the only one who fast forwards past all the unnecessary fluff and get straight to the point? Most UK videos are not as bad as the US versions, but still. save yourself some time, get straight to it 👍
At 4m 18 its a bit unclear what you do to get rid of the vinegar in the kettle after you've poured it out? Do you boil water in it a further two times then boil up cold water to get rid of any vinegar residue left in the kettle? thanlks
My kettle is disgusting as the water in this town is undrinkable unless it is boiled or by using a filtered jug for cold water. Thank you for this & I'll be sure to buy some vinegar & hopefully have a sparkling kette.
It really worked. Only thing is around the kettle when it's heating up as vinegar might bubble up and spill. Mine is a transparent one so I stopped it right on time.
This was very helpful! Our kettle is a mess. So, once you heat the vinegar, instead of dumping it in the sink, pour it on weeds in the yard. It works like a charm to kill them.
Good video George 👍, site kettle gets a quick overnight with a bit of brick acid 🤣🤣. Much prefer your way & definitely up for a go 😁. Hope you have a good one 👍 Regards Tim
people who live in areas, where the drinking water is " soft " is a bit acidic, makes their teeth etc funerable, acid dissolves lime. but if you use " soft water " in your washing machines, showers, and washing windows etc, they are spotless. when we wash are hands in the wash hand basin, with hand soap, it produces " soap scum " which ends up blocking the trap and waste pipes, same applies to showers, you more than likely, know all about this, l have been a plumber since 1972, so l could not aviod it

Put your absolute trust in the LORD. He will never stir or lead you in the wrong direction. Understand and know that he knows what’s best for you so don’t do your own thing/way. He won’t fail you nor will he forsake you. So just trust and believe in him with all your heart, soul, and might and watch him transform your life.❤️Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. [6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your path”
I thought no way this would work, it is to simple and easy. My yuky glass kettle now looks like new again. Thank you for sharing.
Great to hear!
Thanks
Thank you ☺️
Slow motion was amazing!!! Keep up the good content!
That shot of the water being poured into the kettle!! 👌🏼
Worked for me. Just had to point the kettle at the sink for when the hot vinegar mixture spooged out the spout

That sounds very resourceful to me! Must be a nightmare when it's that bad!
Somethings never change that’s why I’m on this video now 😂
Where can I get that - what is mangers?

Kilrock is basically pure formic acid, works like a dream!
That's a very long video about kettle cleaning but it was worthy... 😅 loved the position of the camera inside of the kettle... 🙏🏽
It works well, thanks for sharing.
No problem 👍
thanks for sharing .Have a wonderful day my friend
Thank you and you.
old lady at the bus stop told me this, I thought she was full of it, looked it up on youtube and its real hahaha, I'll give it a go!

Thanks Justin - it's definitely a steep learning curve with a renovation. Good luck with your home improvements

How is this not the top comment, relevant!

It depends how hard your water is. We live in a hardwater area so it’s vital for us for filtering out limescale
any tip for what to use if you cant get your hand into the kettle? the opening on mine is too small.
i have been useing this for decades but you do noot need the backing soda just the vinegar.
but there is a saftey warning booiling vinegar the fumes are acidic acid and it is in very hight concontrations it can burn mouth through lungs eyes this is no joke but it is only the fumes use can even use boiled vinegar on your chips if you want it is the fumes.
only do this in a very very well ventalated room and leave the room untill stoped boiling or better still do it outside.

How did you clean the kettle mouth?
Thanks so much, that worked a treat!❤🙏🙏
Cheers Georgina. V helpful.
Glad it was helpful!

😆😆
but but they get paid by how long you are watching
id laugh if it was just a new kettle at the end😆
Yes you are, I just kept yelling 'Get on with it' while I watched the first 1:15
Yep, this could have been a 30 second video.
Thank you this worked so well.
Thank you for sharing !

Use food grade citric acid powder. Works even better and no vinegar aftertaste.
Thanks - will give it a try
Hi please show how to clean the plastic lid on the kettle. Managed to clean the inside. Thanks Cape Town. South Africa
I'm from PE. Cleaning my kettle too. 😂
Wow!!! Like new again. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful day!!
Thanks Yannis and you 😊

I also finish my vinegar through this process, but I gotta see DC could learn a lot from this camera work😂🙏
thank you
Yea thanks haven’t clean mine since I bought it,I mean too long thanks

Mine Is Much Worse, and it's a Copper Kettle, How to, for that, Same?
Should we not add water and white vinegar to the kettle in a 1:1 ratio?
Its the acid that does the work so water is not needed.
Nice tunes
Good video George 👍, site kettle gets a quick overnight with a bit of brick acid 🤣🤣. Much prefer your way & definitely up for a go 😁.
Hope you have a good one 👍

Tim
Thanks Tim 😊
i have black deposit instead. Can it be removed also with this?
If it's an alkali deposit, yes.
Did you stick a GoPro at the bottom that kettle? 😂
Right lol
I tried it and it removed most of the limescale but not all of it. I will try a second time, maybe overnight.
Pretty Woman-thank you for your help

Put it in the dishwasher, works every time for me 👍
You can't put an electric kettle in the dishwasher!
@@jennyturner6399 WHOOSHHHH and it's over the head 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the video. I have the same problem. I'm letting mine sit overnight in vinegar. What part of Mississippi are you from? I love your accent. 🙂
Thank you - I'm from near London in the UK : )
@@GeorginaBisbyDIY You sounded like an Australian to me but what do I know. I was attempting to make a joke about it. Thanks for the reply. Your video helped a lot!
😂
But you didn't tell us how to use the baking soda to clear out the tough parts.
Just use RO/distilled water to make your tea.
The vinegar shot out of my kettle and all over my kitchen
1/2 fill your kettle, saying 2 cups is wrong, kettles come in different sizes.
Then afterwards you can't use the kettle as the coffee tastes of vinegar
Buy a water distiller or buy distilled water. No more scale. Ever.
Same way vinegar will clean our stomach as well..
Boil Lemon juice and vinegar in it and will get rid off it easily
Good video. I tried that but still get the vinegar flavour tea 😂
An acquired taste!
@@GeorginaBisbyDIY apparently good for weight loss, as you don't drink as much 😂
Give back my Kattle 😂
But be careful if you use this method too much the plug will overheat
The vinegar shot out the kettle whilst boiling all over the kitchen, very unexpected.😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Can you use brown vinegar?
I don't see why not!
The vinegar exploded out of the kettle😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I asked him to clean the kettle… he couldn’t even do that
Does he suggest vinegar also?
@@who1419 did he clean your kettle? And the bigger question, did he use vinegar?
Guys don’t be fools this message is not for the kettle but other areas in your life
@@destro4450 this video was about cleaning kettles, can he clean the kettle or not?
Slow down you talk too fast on top of your accent!!
Thank you❤
