I just use vinegar with some water. Leave for half an hour or so then rinse out. I then boil the kettle three times afterwards. I would not boil vinegar.

Diluted vinegar, leave overnight, rinse well the following morning. If there is a residue smell use bicarbonate of soda about 1 teaspoon to about 1 pint of water again leave to stand, rinse well boil once and should be clean for use. This method is more environmentally friendly than descalers which also work very efficiently. Whatever you use rinse well before reusing kettle. Do regularly so as not to get a build up in the kettle.

The vinegar will work well.
However if you live in an area with hard water it will pay you to buy a new kettle every year.

Descaler, or in a push vinegar poured over the element and boiled up - be careful though, it can flood over the top.
