    I am glad i am not the only person having trouble trying to buy White Vinegar ! I have got a friend to get me some from the cash + carry.

    My local Tesco is hopeless !
    I cant get Maxwell House instant powder coffee,because my Tesco says no 1 had been buying it,so they stopped selling it.Strange that,because i know a lot of people that used to buy it.

    I have not had a decent cup of coffee since April ! I think i email Maxwell House,see what they say .

    As many people have said on here before, the best place to get white vinegar is Chinese supermarkets as they sell 5 litre plastic bottles for under a fiver.

    it should be withn the other vinegars well in morrisons it is, its also good for limescale, if you put sum onto a piece of kitchen towel and put that into a sandwhich bag and tie the bag round a tap with some string and leave if for a few hours it will get rid of limescale

    hello

    thanks to reading this site i tracked down some white vinegar

    today i put some in fabric slot in washer and ran a 90o wash
    and put some in a cup and stood it in bottom shelf of dishwasher(empty load)
    and ran a 60o wash

    looks fab clean

    did i do it right? and how often should i do it as we are in very hard watrer area

    thankyou

    Most people recommend a maintenance wash for the washing amchine about once a month. This is especially true if you normally wash at 30 or 40°C.

    Personally I'd only use vinegar in these washes about every second or third month.

    AND...

    The big one...

    Do you mean a washing machine (laundry) or a pressure washer?
