Intralabs Citric Acid 1kg - 100% Pure Food Grade Fine Crystals

Good value and perfect for descaling.

If you need toner cartridges these are as good as they come.

I live in an area with hard water and I'm finding I need to descale my kettle every week. This is perfect for that job.

Good price good quality.

Citric acid has many uses, i.e. culinary, cleaning and de-scaling as well as being used in industrial processes. I have bought this brand before and found it to be effective in removing calcium deposits from tiles, the scale in a kettle and shower heads etc. A small spoonful of citric acid and a drop of water is sufficient to remove the discolouration inside stainless steel pans. I recently bought a coffee machine and the manufacturer's de-scaling tablets are quite expensive compared to a couple of spoonfuls of citric acid which is just as effective. Buying citric acid in a 1kg sachet is the most economic option unless bought in much larger quantities. Ideally, if you're purchasing it for the first time I recommend you buying it in a 1kg plastic tub that you can then subsequently re-fill from a sachet. I've found that 1kg lasts me quite a while. Recommended. This is food grade citric acid so can be used in the preparation of foodstuffs although I've never tried this myself. It is also useful to make up a cleaning solution too particularly with bicarbonate of soda.
