Brand new kettle of very high quality. I'll leave the name of the company out until I've gotten answer from them from the email I've sent.
I filled it with water yesterday, threw a couple pieces of grain in and tested my new pump/whirlpool setup with it. I then cleaned it with Oxi as usual and rinsed many times then dried.
Today I filled it with 6 gallons and did a trial boil to calculate losses. After cooling and draining I notice these on the bottom of the kettle....is it rust? I sure hope not, as I said this is a high quality stainless kettle with tri-clad bottom.
