Hey guys I just finished up these new 14th century reproduction bronze cauldrons, take a look:  They come with a fully tinned interior so they're actually usable as cookware! I haven't started selling them to the general public yet, so if you want to get the discounted rate of $250 (+ $30s/h within continental U.S.) let me know ASAP (retails at $285 US dollars). Also available is a complete cauldron set including a hanging handle and a turned maplewood lid.

ok, I was quoted between $60-$80 going with the US Postal Service(UPS and Fed Ex were right about double that)depending on the actual final weight of the cauldrons and the added packaging that would go in. If you want to snag them at the preorder price go ahead and I'll contact you with the difference in shipping once I have the cauldrons in hand and boxed.
Also, I've now updated the website to offer the cauldrons in an untinned version at the bottom of the page. http://www.thadenarmory.com/sell/cookware/cookware.htm Thanks. Patrick [ 02-22-2006: Message edited by: Patrick Thaden ] -------------------- Patrick Thaden

I believe the problem is with the unhistorical tinning. He was having problems getting it to work. However I purchased one un-tinned. We have used it since and it is awesome. No more worry about cracking pottery on the fire. We do not leave food sitting in it, it gets washed right away. Unlike cast iron pots, you should use soap in it, which make me happy. Prior to the start of camp season, I clean it with this recipe just to be extra safe.1 tsp salt
1 cup white vinegar
flour to make a paste let it sit for 15 minutes to one hour. The paste allows all the inside to be covered for the full time. I am tempted to buy a second. -------------------- Woodcrafter

We use bronze pots and as long as food is not left standing and you avoid highly acidic mixes the copper leaching is minimal.Also a good clean before use is required to get rid of any oxidation and of course afterwards. On camp I use wood ash and water to clean the pots, the abrasive and detergent effect works a treat. -------------------- history is in the hands of the marketing department - beware!
