I’m a grown adult who has been drinking multiple cups of tea a day for like… 20 years? But TIL (upon actually looking inside my electric kettle and gazing upon something that looked far too much like a cave for comfort) that tea kettles can develop mineral deposits (!!!) and so I had to learn from Bob Vila how to clean the limescale out of my kettle. Did you all know this?? Why didn’t I know this?
I hadn't gotten around to fizzing limescale out of the kettle in a while, so here's the spout screen! 🙃
(For keeping the inevitable mineral chunks inside, yeah.)
Spoiler: it's really not supposed to be opaque like that. But, London's liquid chalk.
I know I've said this before, but even after growing up on limestone karst? I still keep getting taken by surprise with just how hard this water is.
I live in a hard water area and this is the best solution I have found.
