Sodium acetate is cool stuff, I never thought of using it for cleaning.

If you mix vinegar and baking soda and simply boil down the resulting solution, you get this liquid that crystalizes exothermically on contact with it's crystalized self, or with the shock from inverting a small metal disc, as used in reusable hand warmers. If you fill a small jar with it, you can boil the jar (with something under it) to reset the sodium acetate back to it's liquid form.
