The love affair with vinegar continues... Today's installment will talk about cleaning with vinegar. I actually employ vinegar in most of my cleaning. I use a spray bottle filled with a 50/50 vinegar and water mix to clean the mirrors, sinks and counter tops. Here's what the Heinz Hints pamphlet suggests:
- Dynamite in the Dishwasher: To cut the soapy film on your cloudy glassware, place a cup of vinegar on the bottom rack of your dishwasher, run for five minutes, then run through the full cycle. A cup of white vinegar run through the full cycle of the machine once a month will also reduce soap build up on the inner workings of the machine.
- Take A Shine To It: To make your chrome fixtures, appliances and counter tops gleam, rub away the streaks and smears with a cloth soaked in white vinegar.
- Grease Be Gone: To help prevent grease build up and to keep your drains fresh smelling, pour a handful of baking soda down the drain pipe. Add one-half cup of white vinegar. Cover the drain tightly for a few minutes, then flush with cold water.
- A Great Perk: To eliminate lime deposits that can build up and clog the inside heating element of your automatic drip coffee maker, once a month fill the reservoir with white vinegar and run through the brew cycle. Rinse thoroughly with two cycles of water and enjoy fast, fresh, hot coffee.
That's it for this week! More cleaning tips to come next week. I am sure you can't wait. :)
