He hasnt been active since 2008. I doubt hes going to see this. (with all the aluminum and lead solder, he's likely got Alzheimer's)
To answer your question, literally everyone on here uses vinegar, or hot backset to clean copper. give it a hot acid bath then rinse it well with tap water and let it air dry.

Fear and ridicule are the tactics of weak-minded cowards and tyrants who have no other leadership talent from which to draw in order to persuade.
Re: Aluminum pot?

Re: Aluminum pot?
In your predicament It’s definitely unfortunate or fortunate depending on how you look at it.
We suggest to put that aluminum pot aside for something else.

Keep searching. Hopefully you can find a safe boiler.

Freedom had been hunted round the globe; reason was considered as rebellion; and the slavery of fear had made men afraid to think. But such is the irresistible nature of truth, that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing.

Yep, i think before the last revolution we had one of the best wines out there, there was the popular araq sagi liquor, the shiraz wines, now people buy non alcoholic beers, put sugar and bread yeast in them and done.Stonecutter wrote: ↑Sun Feb 19, 2023 12:11 pm Looks like Iran holds a beer record.
