I’ve been making a soft acid-precipitated cheese that gets heated to ~190 F almost daily, and I’m having trouble keeping the (stainless steel) pot clean. There’s a pale scaly buildup, and the pot smells milky all the time. I’ve been rinsing it in cool water, then soaking, then scrubbing with hot water and soap; I’ve also tried baking soda. Some of you mentioned before that you don’t use scouring pads as they create grooves where bacteria can settle. I tried ordering a foaming acid detergent advertised as good for removing milk scale, but when it arrived it had heavy warnings about serious eye and skin damage and the need to use rubber gloves and wash contaminated clothing before reuse…I’m wary of using anything that toxic on kitchenware. Any advice?
