Finding out my sink isn't big enough! I bought a set of copper bottomed stainless steel cookware. They put a clear coat on the copper bottoms so they won't tarnish before you buy them. The instructions say to dissolve three tablespoons of baking soda in 3 quarts hot water and soak each piece for 20 minutes to remove the coating. Well, I only have the stopper for one side of my double sink, so only one pan at a time fits. I'm really glad I didn't get a set with more pieces! I sincerely hope the instructions are correct and/or that they're tailored to dunces, because you sure can't tell when the coating is gone. I'm having to go on faith that the soaking did it. If not, I'll find out the first time I use the pans and it leaves black marks all over the pretty copper bottoms....
