that's limescale
65 1 ReplyLimescale from the tap, or a dirty dish with limescale.
Either way it's harmless.
This is why water softeners, aka soft water is a thing in many US homes.
31 0 ReplyThe kettle doesn't have whitish looking residue though. It's spotty specks of grey that leaves chalky white powder on my finger when I wipe them, is that still limestone?
11 0 ReplyYup. It takes a minute for the scale to build up on the metal.
16 0 ReplyMaybe the kettle has some kind of non-sticking internal surface?
Yes, that sounds like limescale.

Is it a dusty room?
14 1 ReplyThe whole apartment looks pretty clean, but the base of the kettle looked a little funky. Only realised it after drinking a cup of water
6 0 ReplyDo you know if it's a hard water area? It may just be calcium.
When you say "funky", was it a little furry and white? If so, that's probably calcium deposits (aka "limescale").
