Nice drill. Are you doing this in your kitchen? Seems like it would
be a messy job.

I forget what he burned. I would try soaking the pan in warm
soapy water with some bleach added overnight. That can really
soften many burned on things. Then attack it with a Brillo pad or
Ajax and a scrubby pad.

Cleaning with a drill and sandpaper sounds a bit overkill to me.

Toffee, so it's carbonized sugar.

I favor boiling a strong solution of baking soda for this sort of
thing. It's amazing at getting burnt-up crud off of things.

Last resort, certainly. Or may second-last, right before replacing
the pot.

What's your plan for restoring the smooth surface? Successively finer
grit sandpaper?

Ive burned maple syrup to that same extreme and been able to completely
recover my own without a sander. It can be done.

I don't know about bleach. Vinegar can do wonders if you give it enough
time, or soak if in water with baking soda. I have found that using
water and dish washer detergent and boiling it for a while will remove
just about anything, including burned on crap. Mr. IinheritedaFortune
could have just thrown out the pot and replaced it.

Of course, that pan is a POS... those sanding discs are worth more
than that POS pan. Would be much smarter to learn how to cook... but
of course Alex can't learn, Alex is a pointy headed imbecile.

There's plenty of modern cookware that is far superior to vintage,
you're just not going to find it at your local Dollar store.

He should have used some of that oven cleaner he uses to clean the grout in
his floor. Or boiled a Bounce dryer sheet and let it sit overnight. Or
vinegar. Scotchbrite Extreme Scrub scour pads work pretty great, too.

He was trying to make "English" toffee without a candy thermometer,
without constantly stirring it and with the heat too high. So he burned
some sugar. Big whup.

It doesn't take power tools to clean that pot. Just a soak in very hot
soapy water. He's just whining for attention again.

Funny how he loves everything electric yet he can't make toffee in a pot
on an electric stove. Heck, I grew up with nothing but electric stoves.
I've used them to make different types of candy many times in my life.
Nary a problem with scorched or burned sugar in a pan. Ever.

Or maybe he just wandered off somplace and forgot about what was on the
stove. So it burned. Now he's trying to impress us with the fact he
owns power tools. LOL

Kuthe should get his recipes from the Better Homes and Gardens Cook Book
for Children. When it comes to working around the stove or anything else
that is hot it advises them to get adult help.

This was an antique I purchased at an estate sale years ago when I lived on Westminster in the CWE. And a VERY GOOD candy cooking pot too! I WILL get all the carbon off, but I'm gonna be very wary of cooking English Toffee syrup in it again! I'll HAVE to try, but...

And no, new is not always better. In fact many times OLD IS BETTER! Like my Kitchenaid Coffee Mill from the 1940s that I got off Ebay, and the 80 year old steel based desk lamp I got off Craigslist! Both made in USA, to last! Not China to be replaced!

If you burned the pan like that you also ruined the taste of the
toffee with a burned taste. You should probably use a candy
thermometer

Thank you, Janet US. How many times have I mentioned a candy

it. He screwed up.
