How to Get Rid of Calcium Deposits in Pots

1. Fill the pot with equal parts vinegar and water.

Use white vinegar, as it is more acidic than other types of vinegar and will work better at dissolving the calcium deposits.

2. Bring the mixture to a boil.

This will help to loosen the calcium deposits.

3. Let the mixture sit for several hours or overnight.

The longer the mixture sits, the better it will work.

4. Scrub the pot with a non-scratch scrubber.

This will help to remove any remaining calcium deposits.

5. Rinse the pot thoroughly with water.

Make sure to rinse all of the vinegar and baking soda out of the pot.

The salt will help to scour the calcium deposits.
