Kettle whistles, beeps, beeps? That’s it
Kettles are often noisy. While the hissing and bubbling are perfectly normal, a high-pitched whistling sound can indicate too much scale in the kettle.
- If your kettle emits a very high-pitched beeping or whistling sound immediately after starting, descale it first.
- To do this, you can simply use vinegar essence or citric acid. Fill the kettle about halfway with water and add a dash of the home remedy. Then leave the water on for about an hour.
- If the limescale is stubborn, you can bring the vinegar water to a boil.
- Rinse the kettle thoroughly after the vinegar treatment so that you don’t have a vinegar taste in the tea later.
