For you using the kneaded rubber: be sure to keep it away from your pot, copper turns black pretty fast after coming in contact with the rubber. Doesn't look to neat, I don't know if aluminum does the same, but I suppose there will be some sort of reaction with that as well.

Otherwise, a very nice guide, Deanzo!

.

I give mine a coke bath every month or so, works very well.
I used to use a mix of vinegar and salt, it cleans very well, but turns the copper a little bit pink and the smell is a little bit much.

I also tried with soda but it didn't work, maybe I did something wrong because people clean copper with soda

Every time I use coke, I always wonder what that stuff is doing to our insides.

I suppose I have to sacrifice a can of coke then. I suppose the worst effect coke has is on your teeth, actually.

this is why kneaded rubber eraser is the best first layer of insulation...



the 10 second un-insulation method two minutes after finishing benching at -100C
