Cleaning my pressure-cooker

I tried to cook some veal with some rosemary and honey, but unfortunately I used the wrong valve. When I openened the cooker, everything was carbonized, except the meat which didn't taste very good as one can easily imagine.

Now i need some help cleaning it. DON'T TELL ME MY COOKER IS FUCKED. It's probably true, but i'd like to try some stuffs before dumping it.

Okay so i've got some chlorhydric acid (H+ + CL-) and some NaOH. Which one should I use ? How long should i wait ? Should I mix both ? (bwawawawawa )

also i've got everything to protect myself : glasses, gloves, a blouse and a gas mask. And I live in a house, so i've got a garden too.

this sounds fun

you need some kind of high pressure steam device.

Baking soda. Make a paste and leave overnight. Try and get off as much crap as first though.

ah yeah

i've got a karcher and a vaporetto. But brutal chemestry looks more fun. It also looks like it's less work.

So i guess i'm gonna karcherize my cooker, then pour a strong solvent into it. So what is the strongest between caustic saudo and baking soda ?

I've already use caustic soda to dissovle shits (and by shits i mean turds). It's extremely awesome, the turd goes black, shrivel, and emit some smoke.

Engine cleaner might work.

BANG AND THE DIRT IS GONE

the only solution is to put the lid back on, put it back on the hob, and turn the hob up to max. leave overnight, maybe even for two nights for really burnt on stuff. by morning, everything will have superheated to the point of evaporation. true story.

baby carbonized cow

Caustic soda by far. Not sure what it will do to the coating of your pan if it has one though.

one of those orange oil cleaner things.

Hydrogen peroxide (h2o2)

totally H2O2's a good start for making a bomb.

well i just hope caustic soda wont bite the bottom of my cooker. I don't know it looks like it's made of iron or aluminium.

looks like steel

How about just using some oven cleaner?

You shouldn't be eating meat. Here, eat this freshly plucked bit of lettuce that's been rinsed under the tap
