Hi There,
I sure hope someone knows a basic how to on how to clean off
the inside of my tea kettle. There’s a hard white film that occasionally
comes out when the tea kettle is poured. This stuff doesn’t want to come off the bottom of the tea kettle. How do I get it off or do I have to buy an expensive copper bottom tea kettle? Thanks for any help and hope you have a great week ahead!

How can I clean the inside of a tea kettle?

It is stainless steal with a copper bottom. It is really old(made in 1968). The inside of it is dirty, possibly rusted??? What is the bet way to get the inside clean and with what product??
Yes, I plan on using it. I wouldn’t worry about cleaning the inside out if it was just for decoration. My husband told me that it was not rust it was just calcium build up and whatever else forms in kettles over time. How safe is it to use this kettle? How about after I have cleaned it??

Is is bad to drink from a copper tea kettle that has turned green inside?

I bought a cheap tea kettle, made in China, and they recommended to always dump out the water at the end of using it. Of course, it’s not my habit to always do that. I don’t remember us doing that with Revere Ware, for example.

Now I see why they said that — it has "oxidized", or developed a greenish-blue coating, on the copper inside the kettle, on the bottom. Do you think this is ok to still drink from, or should I get a new kettle? Informed answers are appreciated, thanks!
