A woman discovered citric acid, not vinegar, effectively softens crusty towels, improving their feel for guests at her bed and breakfast. Jane Hindle found that adding citric acid to the rinse cycle removed mineral deposits, restoring softness to frequently used hand towels, a common problem. This method proved superior to vinegar, according to other users in a cleaning group. Citric acid, available at stores like Waitrose, is also useful for cleaning bathrooms and removing limescale from appliances. Users noted it's less harsh on laundry and machines than traditional softeners.
