DE-CALCIFICATION
De-calcification refers to removing mineral deposits, which may form in the interior of the
kettle and may result in discoloration.
To get the best performance from your unit, decalcify your unit from time to time. Frequency
will depend on the hardness of your water and how often you use
the unit.
We suggest using a kettle descaler in order to dissolve these deposits or scale. Follow the
directions on the descaler package.
If a commercial descaler is not available, fill the kettle with enough white vinegar to cover the
bottom by about ½ inch. Heat the vinegar to a boil. Repeat this with cooled vinegar until all
deposits are removed. When the descaling process is complete, empty the kettle and rinse
out several times with clean water.
Note: Reheating tea in your kettle may result in a bronze color tea stain appearance on the
stainless steel surface at the base of the kettle. This is caused by tea residue that adheres to
the bottom of the kettle when reheated at high temperatures. After a few cycles, the surface
of the stainless base may begin to turn a bronze color. To avoid tea-staining, do not reheat
the same pot of tea twice and always rinse the inside of your kettle before each brew.
To remove the bronze color staining, dilute a small amount of food-grade white vinegar to a
fresh kettle full of water and boil. This will remove the staining and/or any mineral deposits
that may build up in your kettle. After boiling, allow to cool and thoroughly wash and dry
before your next use.
