How to Clean Cast Iron Kettle

by Christopher Jones

There are many different methods for cleaning cast-iron cookware. One of the most popular is to scrub off any stuck bits with a wire brush, rinse it in hot water, and dry it thoroughly before storing. For an old kettle that has rust spots or other stubborn stains, you can use vinegar to remove the mess - just pour some in the pan and bring it to a boil before rinsing clean.

You'll want to rub down your pan after boiling vinegar too since there's no guarantee that all of the acid will be removed by just pouring out.

  1. Fill the kettle with water and bring it to a boil
  2. Remove from heat, add 1/4 cup of salt, and stir until dissolved
  3. Place the kettle on its side on top of some newspaper or an old towel so that no part will touch your kitchen counter
  4. Scrub off any rust spots using steel wool pads or coarse sandpaper
  5. Rinse thoroughly with hot water, then dry completely before storing indoors for winter storage
  6. Coat inside surface with vegetable oil to prevent rusting during storage (optional).
