So I'm regretting listening to my mother-in-law. The bottom of my stainless steel pot in my last brew had some caked on wort. Not a whole lot, but enough that it had to be scrubbed away.
Anyways, I used a Comet clone and created a paste to try to loosen up the stuff and allowed it to sit overnight based on my mother-in-law's suggestion.
The pot is clean, looks fine, and doesn't smell like chlorine, but I am a little bit concerned. Is there enough chlorine in that stuff to damage a stainless steel pot?
I am going to take a look at the ingredients tonight on that stuff, but Comet's ingredients are as followed:
Comet Ingredients:
Active Ingredient: Sodium dichloro-s-triazinetrione dihydrate 1.2%
Inactive Ingredients: Other Ingredients 98.8%
They claim that their stuff is safe on stainless steel although I am not sure if 12+ hours is too much contact time.
