My bread making machine (Welbuilt) has a little ring around the bottom of the baking pan. I was cleaning it today and noticed a dark brown ring of crust inside that tiny little area.
I cannot clean it out even with a toothpick. I'm soaking it right now with baking soda & water.
The machine has me putting in the water first, so if there are germs in there, I'm probably getting them into the loaves.
What should I do? Should I worry about making myself sick or just forget about it?
