What the title says. Sure, it’s gentle on the environment, but it doesn’t remove soap scum, grease, grime etc anywhere nearly as effective as other products. I also doubt its efficiency as an antibacterial compared to say alcohol or most detergents.

There, I’ve said it.

    I hate it so much when people use vinegar to clean the kettle. It basically makes the kettle unusable for hours, no matter how much you rinse it out the vinegar taste will persist.

    Citric acid works just as well and the kettle is usable right after cleaning.

      My mother cleaned a coffee machine with vinegar, we had to throw it.

      (But I still use vinegar/water + dishwashing liquid dish detergent for cleaning.)
