burnt malt on element

Postby bluc » Sat Apr 20, 2019 1:09 pm

so pulled down my rims tube to clean up in preparation for another round of all grain and it has some burnt baked on malt on it. I guess I recirced to fast :handgestures-thumbdown: wondering best way to clean it without using a scourer, soaked it overnight in sodium percarbonate but there is still some stuck firm..if I use a scourer I reakon it will just make it worse for the next time around when I have to clean it.. 8-}

Switch it on with some vinegar in it as you would a kettle?
