I am a Bartender's Friend User, and it works like the video. Salt and Vinegar is more aggressive, and I have used that method too when I am out of my good stuff. But the BEST aggressive copper cleaner with a high shine finish is Citric Acid and Diatomaceous Earth!
Thanks for the wonderful information when needed desperately
You’re very welcome! Glad it was useful 😀
Amazing tips. Thank you Mr.!
Thanks for watching! 🙏
Excellent video. Thank you.
Thank you for watching 🙏
Really informative video and concise, well done dude I doff my cap !
Thank you for the kind words and thanks for watching. Cheers!
If you want to bring your pans up to an amazing gleaming finish, try using Peek metal polish cleaner. It's gentle enough that you can use it on even gold and silver and porcelain. After I have used it I then take normal laundry soap and water to wash off the residue and then polish with a soft cloth, and it comes out phenomenal!❤
Right on! Thanks for the tip. That’s a new one to me, so I’ll check it out 👍
Excellent!!!! Thank you!!!

Thanks for your video

Thank you for this, it explained so much.

Start video at 3:33 and 5:28 to save time.
I find Barkeepers friend works the best, and no stench like when using Brasso or vinegar and salt. It also works to clean up the handle if you have a brass handle as well.
Yes, I find Barkeepers in general does a good job, and is great on stainless steel, too.
Now if you wanna Polish it to a Glow try Never Dull or Metal Polish Paste
Thanks for the suggestions!
Thank you so much! I freaked out the first time I used a copper pan haha
Right?? Same here. Glad it helped and happy cooking!
Do you have a video on how to clean cast iron?
I do! Here’s the link: ua-cam.com/video/uC2k-_bWgZ4/v-deo.html
Thank you for these helpful tips. I thought I had ruined by son & DIL expensive copper pan.
Glad it helped. I had a similar freak-out moment when I started using mine all those years ago. 😀
I’m thinking of ordering some mauviel with the cast iron handle. I’m never going to see it, but I’d still like it to look presentable. Will I need to season the handle, and if so, is that done the same way I would season any other cast iron? How often? Any advice would be helpful! Love the channel, keep doing what you’re doing, and be well!
Thank you so much! Short answer is, yes I believe so. And I don't think you'd have to season it that often, as the handle won't be exposed to the type of heat an ordinary cast iron pan is. By the way, Mauviel is absolutely amazing stuff. I splurged on a piece last year when I saw a copper pan on clearance. Here's the video of me using it for the first time: ua-cam.com/video/TPwAwHo95wE/v-deo.html
@@IWantToCook I appreciate that! I’ve been saving my pennies for a couple of years. It’s kind of the dream pan, so I’m doing everything I can ahead of time to avoid ruining it. I’m definitely going to check that video out!
Hi after cleaning it with the vinegar and salt does it turn back to brown stains quickly thanks for your reply.
The patina will return when you cook with it again over flame. This is just one of those traits of copper. Cheers!
@@IWantToCook thanks Matey
Does the barkeepers scratch the copper?
I have found it doesn’t; I’d be more concerned with the sponge doing that, as some can create micro scratches or swirling. My recommendation is to start with the softest sponge or rag possible, and in the most inconspicuous spot. Cheers!
Try flitz polishing paste and it will shine like a new penny
Thanks for tip! Haven’t heard of that one.
I always wear rubber gloves when I'm using Bar Keepers friend. It is oxalic acid so you don't want to have that on your skin for obvious reasons
One tip use the soft side of the sponge to make it hold the shine. You are scratching the copper. Copper is a really soft metal.
I use vinegar and salt and to Finnish brasso polisher.
Great advice and thanks for the tip!
I recently bought beautiful handmade tin lined copper pans. The merchant recommended vinegar and brasso. Seems to be the most effective and safest.

Skip to 3:32. That is when he actually starts saying how to clean it. Man, Americans can ramble on.
Cleaning copper by putting it in a solution of vinegar and table salt is called pickling; it works well, but the leftover solution is extremely toxic and needs to be brought to a hazmat center for disposal. If you clean your copper this way, you need to be careful.
Wait really? No one warned me, I put it down my sink omg
Hllo
Don't do this the hard way; tightly wrap a cloth around your middle and index fingers (slightly) moisten it dip the tip of your fingers in baking soda then buff! I guarantee this works and is reasonably genital on the pan!
Good to know. I’ll give it a shot.
Baking soda doesn't seem to work.
