Should I use this Brew Pot

#1 (**permalink**) 12-02-2006, 09:32 AM

This is my first brew and I bought a new cheep 35 qt stainless steel
Stock pot for @ $45

I filled it with 5 gal. water and boiled it for 45 minutes at a low
boil.
Just wanted a dry (or wet) run through.
After I empty the pot I noticed that I could see some rust or metal on
the bottom that wasn't there before I used it.
I know this is a cheep pot and the stainless steel isn't too thick.

My question is, is this going to be a problem with my brew.
I plan on using a gas burner in the garage to cook my brew.

Thanks for the help

Hey, we heard you when you posted this YESTERDAY. Impatience won't win
you any friends or sympathy here, and it certainly won't make people more
inclined to help you. Wait a few days and if you don't get any response,
try posting again. You didn't even wait twelve hours.

If it's rusting then it's definitely a problem. Let the supplier know about your problem and maybe they'll replace it or refund your purchase price. Rust and beer do not go together well at all.

Good luck,

Hello all, new here. But, anyway, his rust isn't extract, because he
just used plain water. I'm betting that the pot is made as cheaply as
the price suggests!
