I had no idea this was not okay. I soaked my 5 gallon kettle overnight in the sink full of 1 ounce of bleach then, next morning scrubbed it with steel wool.
It came out clean but, of course is very scratched up. I don't mind scratches on pots I'm going to be using. That's a part of wear and tear but today I read you can't clean with bleach (while reading a steel keg article about using kegs instead of bottles).
My kettle looks fine minus the scratches, a tiny bit of oxidation but not terrible. did I just ruin my kettle? Is it never to be used again?
