Hi all,
I made my first batch from an extract kit this past weekend. When I was done I realized that I didn't stir my wort enough or I left my specialty grain bag in one spot for too long as there was a 3 inch in diameter scorch mark on the bottom of the kettle. There is definitely some carbon there but so far I've been unable to remove it.. going forward with future batches is this something that will negatively affect my finished product?
Is there a way to remove this stuff that won't harm the kettle or would it be fine to leave it? I'm kinda bummed about it as it was brand new.
