Getting ready to "attempt" my first all grain batch and have been researching like crazy. I just got my new 40 quart aluminum pot in today and read that I need to put a passive oxide layer on it first before using it. This may be a stupid question - but once I boil it can I use immediately or do I need to epose it to air for a few days to build this layer up? Searching the archives did not produce this answer so I ASSume it is fine to use right away - but figured it was better to ask. Anything else to do to prep it right? I was hoping to brew tomorrow.
TIA,
Dan
