I am really looking forward to going all grain, but think I may have hit a stumbling block.
I have just cut the lid off an aluminium (I think) keg and noticed a coating inside of a tan coloured layer (I assume to protect the beer).
Does this need to come off, or is it okay to stay on? I am a touch worried that on boil this may 'go funny'. Though if it is contacting the beer, it must be non-toxic?
I am assuming aluminium due to flat dents in the rim, no noticable sheen, and that I am in the UK.
Cheers for any advice.
