The insides of tea kettles and automatic drip coffeemakers, for example, may be coated with hard water deposits. Let the kettle soak for 30 to 45 minutes. Discard the product and rinse the kettle thoroughly with clear water. Monthly cleaning of coffeemakers is recommended. Brew the solution once, then brew at least two pots of clean water to rinse out the remaining cleaning product.
Mineral deposits can settle on small-necked bottles and ice cub trays, making drinks taste funny.
Bottles and trays can be rinsed with a mineral-dissolving product until deposits disappear. Remember to rinse them thoroughly with clear water before refilling with water or other liquids. Removing mineral deposits in the laundry room is also easy with the right product. Keep your washing machine sparkling clean by using a mineral-dissolving product once a month. Pour one cup into a machine full of hot water and run the washer through a normal cycle.
