Hey Guys,
I purchased a 15 gallon brew kettle from MoreBeer a few weeks back and last night was the first chance I've had to use it.
During cleanup I noticed a small black spot on the kettle wall. I took some bar keepers friend and tried to scrub it off with no luck. It looks like the kettle wall was scorched. When I looked at the outside of the kettle the same spot is there, but the spot on the outside is looks concave like the side wall is melted or dented.
I boil at pretty low rate, about 1 gallon/hour boil off. Can anyone suggest what I may have done to cause this?
Thanks
