I'm about to do my first brew tomorrow and got to looking for a stock pot to use as it seems mine has gone missing. My neighbor has a 30qt but it was last used to fry a turkey and now that I think about it I think it's aluminum. It is pretty well crusted on the bottom and is going to take a fair amount of elbow grease to get clean. Now for the questions...
1.) Can I even use this if it is aluminum because I've seen alot of talk about that being a "no no".
2.) if I can use it does anyone know what would work best for getting this crap(grease I assume) off the sides and bottom? I was going to put a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar and
Boil it to see if that works but figured I'd check here first.
Is this a bad idea? Do I just need to go shopping? Thanks!
