Citric Acid (Anhydrous) 100% Food Grade - Great for Bath Bombs! Mesh Powder - Cleaning Descaling Home Br - GMO Free - BP/FCC

Description:

Citric Acid is found in a variety of fruits and vegetables, but it is most concentrated in lemons and limes, where it can comprise as much as 8% of the dry weight of the fruit. It is also the most widely used organic acidulate, probably because it is classified as a weak acid. As with all manufacturing processes, we recommend lab scale trials in order to determine appropriate quantities. Normally the product is titrated with a dilute solution of Citric Acid (10 or 20% in water) until the desired pH is achieved.

Because citric acid can be made in a powder form, it can be used in dry foods when a sour flavour is desired. Citric acid is therefore a dry alternative to lemon juice or vinegar in dry foods such as seasoning salts, flavouring powders, and crunchy snacks. Citric acid is sometimes used to create an acidic environment and facilitate the ripening process when making cheese, particularly mozzarella. Citric acid is also used to adjust the pH of solutions when brewing both beer and wine. The acid pH of citric acid also makes it useful as a dietary supplement. Many minerals require an acidic pH for absorption. Citric acid is added to vitamin supplements to make some vitamins biologically available for absorption.

Sterilisers : For sterilisers you do need to descale this unit every 4 weeks, use 1 sachet with 150-200 mls of water. Take everything out of the unit, and place the water and citric acid in and switch on for 2-3 minutes.

Kettles : Half fill a kettle and boil, then empty 1-2 sachets of citric acid (10-20 gms) into the kettle and let it stand for about half an hour. Re boil and pour away the water, re boil with fresh water and pour away. The kettle is ready for use again.

Other Appliances : Also for use with coffee makers, humidifiers, bottle warmers, sinks, showers, taps and ceramic tiles. Please refer to any manuals that came with your appliances for specific usage about cleaning.

When and How to Use? When used for cleaning, citric acid is always dissolved in water first. The concentration depends on the application. A solution of 100 g citric acid (roughly 4 ounces) in 1 litre (roughly a quart) of water will make an excellent descaling solution.
