The flavoring chemical diacetyl - used in many manufactured foods - has been tied to three deaths and serious illness in at least 200 people, yet it remains unregulated by the government and under the radar of doctors

Diacetyl attacks, inflames and virtually obliterates the bronchioles, the lung's tiniest airways. As the body tries to heal, scar tissue builds up and restricts the airways. The damage is irreversible, though it sometimes can be moderately controlled with medications. Rats exposed to diacetyl at levels similar to those in factories suffered major lung injuries, according to 2001 reports by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. Half died within six hours.

I heard that if you use an aluminium kettle, the poison from it will cancel out the diacetyl...

Drink the bleach, but out of an aluminum mug, THEN pee in the wort. That'll take care of it.

then I've been getting it wrong. I drink the bleach, pee into an aluminum mug then pour it in the wort. I knew I was doing something wrong.
