Chester Copper Pot

First of all, Kudos to anyone who knows who the reference was to in the Title...


Getting to my Q. Because i am so adbsent minded lately, I put up a pot of water in one of my small copper pots to make some rice for my dog (yea, you read that correctly, i mix rice into my puppy's food).

Anyway, all the water boiled out (the whole cup and a half) and now the inside of my pot has these weird silerish lines all over it...

Anyone know what I need to do to remove this?

Thanks everyone!

Thanks for the kudos - that's one of my favorite cheesey movies - lol!!!

As far as the lines, have you tried the traditional half-a-lemon & coarse salt?

Goonies ftw!

Sounds like you might have scale, and need to delime to pot.

And here I am thinking, "How cute! This person named their copper pot. I should do that," If I ever get that 7.75 qt Ruffoni covered brasier I've been drooling over for forever, I'm gonna name it Chester!

lines inside or outside? is the pot lined? stainless or tin? outside use copper polish or lemmon and salt or salt and vinegar. Inside: stainless use stainless polish or barkeepers friend. tin lined? wash with soap and hot water and let it be.
