So I got an aluminum Brinkmann turkey fryer from home depot, and had read that you should boil water in it for a bit to get the oxide layer on it. I boiled for an hour, and ended up with this:
The fryer got covered with some kind of white ash that wipes off clean. The bottom of the pot has orange marks where it rested on the fryer stand. The inside of the pot looks painted black. It doesn't come off with scrubbing. This isn't what the oxidation is supposed to look like is it? Is it still safe for beer? Does anyone have an idea what happened? Thanks.
