I've rescued the odd pan, in fact they're never too far gone IMHO


You may try this "nette?method"


Take a couple of cans of cheap chopped tomatoes & a bottle of vinegar.( if it's a big pan add 3/4 pint of water too )


Mix together in said pan & bring to the boil.


Make a paper/foil

and lay on top of the liquid


Place pan with lid on in the oven on the lowest shelf/rack ( but not the oven base )


Cook at 150 for a good few hours.

Is said pan stainless steel or aluminium BTW ?

You and D-C are quick to give up! My jam pan has been with me a long time and I am not about to give up on it that readily!

A month - you say?

Blimey! :-S

Oh-kay LM, I do understand the emotional attachment to the jam pan. I have used simply fairy liquid (the green one, none of that other pomegranate and vanilla shite) in the past and a lot of hard graft with a brush.


Someone suggested hcl earlier, never tried using that but I do have some if you want to give that a go. Good luck x

At last! A woman of tenacity and perseverance! *swoons*


Before coming on here, I did try boiling up vinegar (minus the toms) in pan - but nowt. Looks as though bio-powder might be the leader here, but thanks for tip(s) anyway Nette.


Muckers.


PS: it's steel, I think. Weighs a ton!

PS: I should tell you that my pan is not at all odd! The very inference!


*harrumphs*



As for you Lady Kat, to the naughty room you go...


Thanks for your offer BTW - hopefully I shouldn't need it x

Haven't a clue...never buy it...someone left a large bottle of the stuff at our house. But, I think, it was "proper" cola. Used virtually the entire 2 litre bottle.


Remaining damage to pan proving very resilient...postponed blackberry picking :(.

Patience LM - the bio powder will work but may need 2 -3 more treatments as before (and don't be put off if it smells a little - that means it's working) keep the faith!

KTdigits - STOP watching Dr. Who/Torchwood/The Time Tunnel/Stargate/Quantum Leap etc., it is warping your mind.

Have you tried scouring while simmering with the non-bio? Requires a certain degree of heat proof hand covering, but once helped me save a pan I thought beyond redemption.


May have been entirely in my head, but there seemed to be a synergy in the simmering swirl that yielded results. Long handled brushes recommended.

CHAMPIONES, CHAMPIONES,


OLE, OLE, OLE...




ooops...sorry...wrong thread...twas the picture of Arsene that confused me...tee hee


Yes the jam pan, thank you for your further comments. Still soaking with Ariel. Progress has slowed tremendously, but I shall not capitulate - yet! RosieH, if the situation does not materially improve by midnight tomorrow, I shall attempt your "trick" of scrubbing whilst simmering. Failing that, I'm digging out the ice-skating boots! But right now, it's time to continue with important celebrations...priorities guys, priorities...


CHAMPIONES, CHAMPIONES...


8 - 2, I MEAN, 8 fukking 2....

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
