When using the electric kettle, you need to fill it with water first, and then turn on the power. A few people will like to turn on the power first and then add water to the kettle, which will easily dry the kettle, burn out the heater of the kettle and eventually make the kettle lose its function of boiling water. Of course, only a few people do this, and most people are still used to receiving water before boiling, but this still needs attention.
The sound of electric kettle boiling water is getting louder and louder, and the boiled water is getting worse and worse. This is because the scale accumulated in the kettle is destroying it. Generally, the water quality of tap water is hard, and a lot of scale will be left at the bottom of the pot after boiling. There are many water components left in the scale, which will seriously affect the health of water use for a long time, so it is necessary to clean the scale regularly.
Precautions for boiling water in electric kettle are as follows:
1, the boiling time should not exceed 15 minutes: in order to kill germs to the greatest extent and reduce the hardness of water as much as possible, it is best to control the boiling time of boiling water within 5~ 10 minutes. If the boiling time exceeds 15 minutes, or it is boiled repeatedly like a water heater in a public place, it will cause certain harm to the body after drinking.
2. The water should be completely boiled: in the process of operation, you can't think that the water is boiling just because the water surface is about to boil. In fact, the water quality is relatively toxic at this time, so for this kind of water that is not completely boiled, it is still necessary to cook for a while before drinking, so as not to affect your health.
3. Add water while drinking: When boiling water, be sure to drink it at any time and add water at any time to avoid automatic heating after the temperature drops to a certain extent, resulting in deterioration of water quality.
4. Open the lid when the water is about to boil: when the water is boiling, remember to open the lid and dry it, and then put out the fire 3 minutes after the water is boiled, so that the chlorine content in the water can be reduced to the safe drinking standard, which is the real boiled water.
