Am I the only one who's done this??????
LOML was making apple sauce a few days ago with the kids and they managed to seriously burn the bottom of one batch.
We soaked it.
We scrubbed it.
We pulled out the SOS pads (soap impregnated steel wool, for anyone who's never seen those)
We soaked it more.
We soaked it in vinegar + baking soda, and heated that up to loosen things.
Nope.
I was at the point of not caring any more, and so I pulled out my ROS with a slightly worn piece of 150 grit...
This sure was messy, since I had to take off the dust bag to fit the sander in the soup pot, but about 45 seconds later the bottom was buffed totally clean. (It was a good quality stainless steel pot, by the way, not enamel or cast iron or teflon or anything, just plain stainless steel.)
