My 14 yr old sap hauler decided to make a small batch of syrup and proceeded to put a gallon of sap in a sauce pan and got distracted(not the first time for this age) as the pan was on high, End result 1/8 inch of the hardest, blackist, sweet bruning smell in the house( it's been 2 days and still present and acounted for), and my question is how to clean the pan after scraping to get the rest of the black off?
P.S. Didn't yell at the future sugar maker, we all make mistakes just the older you get the larger the gruel

You might not save the pot, but the cost of a pot is a good lesson for aforementioned sap hauler. It might make a big enough impression that it saves an expensive pan in the future.

Got the pan clean, steelwool and elbow grease did the trick. A lesson well learned for the sap hauler as well as the parent. A closer eye on said sap hauler in the future isin the agenda. Thanks for the info on cleaning mothers pan.
