1- Make a cleaner for all surfaces with lemon zest
Lemon zest is an eco-friendly household product. Beyond removing grease, it can disinfect surfaces and be an excellent deodorant. To make this powerful cleaner, mix it with white vinegar, an eco-friendly antiseptic to remove all dirt, in a glass jar and let it soak for two weeks. Pour the liquid into a bottle equipped with a spray bottle to which you will add water. Before using this homemade cleaning product, shake it before spraying on the stained area.

2- Thoroughly clean your coffee maker with lemon zest
As you will have understood, lemon zest is ideal for getting rid of grease. This also applies to the limescale that forms white rings on your coffee maker. To take advantage of it, simply scrub the coffee maker with a damp sponge soaked in lemon zest and salt, a perfect ingredient to remove limescale from the water, and then rinse well. You can also use the peels of this citrus fruit to clean your teapot. If you want to adopt this trick, bring it to a boil and add the citrus peels. Let it cool for an hour and voila!
