How to Fix It (Do This Once a Week)
The good news? The solution is incredibly simple.
1. Fill the kettle halfway with vinegar
White vinegar is best.
2. Add the same amount of water
A 50/50 mix works perfectly.
3. Bring it to a boil
Let the vinegar-water solution heat up normally.
4. Let it sit for 20–30 minutes
This loosens all the mineral deposits.
5. Rinse thoroughly
Boil fresh water afterward to remove any smell.
Bonus Tip: Never Turn On the Kettle When It’s Empty
Another surprisingly common mistake.
Running the kettle dry damages the thermostat instantly — and that’s how the kettle fails to shut off.
