Karachi: (RightNow) Electric kettles are commonly used for making tea and coffee. However, cleaning the white deposits and stains inside the kettle becomes a challenge.

Experts say washing the kettle under a regular tap is not suitable. This can increase the risk of a short circuit and damage the kettle.

Using vinegar and lemon juice can effectively clean the interior of an electric kettle. Vinegar softens mineral deposits, while lemon eliminates any remaining odors.

Cleaning the kettle is crucial as mineral deposits can affect the heating process and damage the kettle.

It is important to note that the white deposits inside the kettle are due to minerals in the water. Regular cleaning is necessary.
