Kettle polluted (by stray rubber seal ) - help!

matticus · 22 Dec 2023

We think a bit of hot-water bottle seal fell in and got boiled up. This was 10 boils ago, and the foul taste isn't going away :sad:

Suggestions how to purge the poor thing?

Does it taste like a Kiss From a Rose?

Milton sterilising fluid? At least it will smell of something else....

If it were bike, the obvious answer is a new one, so new kettle is the answer.
K+1 and all that
