Citric acid solution is a natural and effective cleaning agent that is ideal for cleaning dirt, mineral deposits and odors from home appliances. Citric acid has good acidity and can easily break down scale and accumulated grease. It is not only environmentally friendly, but also reduces the use of chemical cleaning agents. Here are a few ways to use citric acid solution to clean home appliances:

1. Cleaning the dishwasher
Dishwashers are prone to accumulate scale, grease and odors during long-term use. Citric acid solution can effectively clean the inside of the dishwasher.

Method: Place 1-2 spoons of citric acid powder in the bottom of the dishwasher or in the dedicated cleaning tank (depending on the capacity of the dishwasher). Run the empty wash program of the dishwasher and select the high temperature mode. The acidity of citric acid will help remove scale and grease stains and freshen the air.

2. Cleaning the refrigerator
Refrigerators are prone to accumulate food residues and odors. Citric acid solution can help remove these unpleasant odors and keep the refrigerator clean.

3. Cleaning the kettle
The kettle is a common area for scale accumulation, and the citric acid solution can quickly and effectively remove scale.

4. Cleaning the coffee machine
The interior of the coffee machine will deposit scale due to minerals in the water, affecting the taste of the coffee and the performance of the machine. Citric acid solution is ideal for cleaning the coffee machine.
