From thread the threads. Lacanche Part 15

I have a question for those of you who have your Lacanche's for a while. I have had my Cluny for almost a year and the brass needs a little brightening, especially the burners. What have others used to polish the brass? Any pitfalls to avoid? Many thanks.

Tsprinkle, here's what I do when I polish up the range: I pour some of the Copper Brite that AC sent onto a cloth and polish the ends of the handles and drawer pulls with that. Use sparingly and wipe off immediately; be careful not to let the cleaner run because it can cause a slight green discoloration in places. I take off all the knobs, put them in a bowl in the sink, squirt more Copper Brite over them, and let them sit while I do the burner covers and collars (it helps to keep the oven knobs separate from the burner knobs). The burner covers require a bit more work. I've used Dawn Power Dissolver to loosen up some of the cooked-on darkness, but the thing that really works the best is Brillo pads. The Power Dissolver does help so that you don't have to scrub quite so hard. Same with the aluminum collars, though I've never succeeded in getting all the dark spots off those. The steel wool in the Brillo pads goes a long way towards shining up the burner covers, but I give them a finishing coat of the Copper Brite as well. Then I just rinse off and wipe dry the knobs and put them back on. Voilà--beautiful, shiny brass!

New Threads Posted

Thanks to Zolablue, I now have all of the Lacanche threads. Lacanche Parts 1 through 18 are now posted.

I will look at the threads to see if I can find items to pull out into other categories ( cleaning, cooking, ect ) as I can.

The link to Marin's kitchen is here.

Swissmiss's (Marin's) comment from the forums.

Well, we bought our Lacanche Volnay over two years ago (thanks to this forum) and we're finally done building our house, so here it is happily nestled in the corner of our new kitchen.... The heat output on this thing (even with LPG) is amazing; my only complaint is the burner rings are hard to clean

Lacanche

I've set up this website to store old Lacanche threads, Lacanche pictures, and other wisdom from That Home Site.

Links to threads and pictures are on the left

This is a simple and free hosting service. The threads and pictures can be accessed from the links on the left. Every entry has a comments section , this allows users to post additional comments. The comments section only allows limited HTML (no pictures) but I think it will allow users to include there own links.

If you would like to post an entry or picture on this website, it can be done in two ways.

1) I will post an entry for you if you email the information to lacanche@gmail.com

2) Anyone is welcome to become an administrator of the site and post entries. The blogger interface is not difficult to use, and I would be happy to explain how to anyone who is interested. Email lacanche@gmail.com and I will set you up with the passwords to access the interface.

Note about posting pictures:

I will only post the links to photos on this website. The links will work as long as the photos remain hosted by the original owners and available to the public.
