Citric acid is a naturally occurring acid which is found in large quantities in fruits – notably citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons and certain berries. It is a relatively weak acid and has a distinct, sour taste.
What Is Citric Acid Used For?
1. Water Softener Citric acid’s chemical properties as a weak organic acid make it a powerful water softener. It works by breaking down the trace amounts of metal found in water, making it an ideal all-natural choice for treating hard water.
2. Household Cleaner Add a small percentage of citric acid to hot water or your cleaning liquid and use it to clean hard water stains and kitchen messes. For hard-to-remove stains, you can soak a paper towel in the mixture and lay it on top of the stain. The citrusy smell of the acid is pleasant, so it works well as both a cleaner and a deodorizer.
3. Bath Bombs You can make your own bath bombs—fizzy, effervescent bath soap/salt—by using citric acid. The citric acid is completely safe to use in the bathtub.
4. Carpet Cleaner Applying a 10 percent pharmaceutical-grade citric acid to discolored carpeting can help to remove stains.
5. Descaling Kettles Fill your kettle halfway with water, and bring it to a boil. Once it has boiled, turn it off and add 1 – 2 tablespoons of citric acid powder to the water. Allow the water and citric acid mixture to sit in the kettle for 15 to 20 minutes, then discard
