Brilio.net - Glass cups are one of the kitchen utensils that are used almost every day. Apart from drinking mineral water, glass cups are also often used to serve hot or cold drinks, such as tea or coffee. The basic material of glass makes this type of glass more durable and not easily damaged.
With proper care, glass can indeed remain in good condition for a longer period of time. However, glass cups can still experience problems if used continuously. One problem that many people often experience is finding glass that is opaque and crusty. This has been experienced by Instagram user @tilahamo.
"After being used for years, glass can become dull, especially if it is used as a container for water that contains calcium, lime or other minerals. Therefore, we need to deep clean it so that the glass becomes shiny again," said Instagram user @tilahamo, quoted by BrilioFood on Monday ( 4/22).
Unfortunately, the white crust on these glass cups tends to be stubborn and difficult to clean, you know. Even soap cannot immediately remove the crust . It's not surprising that many people use harsh ingredients, such as bleach.
How to wash dull and crusty glass glasses.
However, instead of using bleach, Instagram user @tilahamo has his own trick when washing glass glasses. With simple ingredients, he can restore the appearance of the glass to shine and clarity even without brushing it. Well, the cleaning agent used is citrus.

How to use it is quite easy. Place this glass cup in a large container or heat-resistant basin. Then pour enough hot water until the glass is submerged. So, so that it can be completely submerged, you can position the glass horizontally, OK?
Next, pour enough citrus powder evenly. Then rotate the glass so that all parts are exposed to the citrus and hot water. If so, just leave it for about 15 minutes.
