My Goblin Teasmaid

I've bought a vintage Goblin Teasmaid on eBay. I'm worried the kettle and spout part might not be clean. It could have been in a mouldy attic for fifty years. Can anyone advise? There's a heating element inside which I don't want to damage so I don't want to bleach it. You can tell I don't adult often.

Posted on AIBU for traffic and because I'm ridiculously excited about my new toy.

Am I being unreasonable?

There is a video on YouTube about how to descale it so that would thoroughly clean it safely.

Do you know they now sell them new? Argos have them but they are £60- I hope it makes an amazing brew for you to wake up to. I’d be very excited to not get out of bed to make a cuppa!

Thank you, I did not know any of that!

I thought it would be a great hot chocolate making device with my kids. But didn't want to poison them!

Thanks again
