Isn't it a bit similar to the tablets I have used? I haven't used vinegar though, only like 60-70C water and then brushing.

Yes I’d say similar, but likely cheaper. Buy a big box at the pharmacy, use a bunch. I bet you’ll get it clean

It sounds silly. I know and agree but they work! I hadn’t properly cleaned my thermos in years, when I heard about denture tablets. I picked up a box from a dollar store, boiled some water and plunked in two over night. When I brushed it and poured the water out the following morning, the buildup came out in chunks. It was disgusting and amazing all at the same time. Tea tasted a lot better too!
