After my first brew in the new aluminum kettle, I did a full clean with PBW. Brought it to 160 degrees and let it circulate for a full hour.
it seems to have knocked off my oxidation layer, because the pot looks a lot more shiny than when I started the batch. Should I re-passivate with boiling water before I brew again? If I brew without boiling first, can I harm the beer or myself?
I love the idea of the full deep clean after each brew, but obviously don’t want to make my beer undrinkable.
Thanks!
