Hey everyone,
I just got my brand spanking new 10gal SS Brewtech kettle in the mail yesterday, and while reading the instructions that came with it, there's a section for passivation. I know this topic has been talked about here before, but all of the posts are older. I wanted to hear from people about what they did with their brand new kettles.
Spike says you don't need to. Palmer says to use a cleaner like Bar Keeper's Friend and that passivation will occur on its own after the kettle is washed down to bare metal. Can I just get away with a thorough wash and be ready to roll? Thanks!
