Unfortunately, the carbon deposits that appear on the pot after a couple of hours on the fire cannot be removed using ordinary soapy water.

But there is no reason to be upset - there are many folk methods, each of which is characterized as highly effective and energy-efficient.

We will share one of them (using soda and glue) with you today.

So, to clean the inside of a metal cauldron, you need to fill a bucket with water and add 25 g of soda ash and silicate glue.

After the contents of the container have been thoroughly mixed, pour the liquid into the cauldron, filling it completely.

Now the pot can be put on the fire. Wait for the solution to boil and do not turn off the flame for another hour.

After this time, the cauldron can be removed from the heat to cool, and then the liquid must be drained and the product washed with the addition of detergent.

As they say, the final touch is to rinse off the remaining cleaning agents under running water, and you can use the cauldron again (this time completely clean) for your purposes.
