Right, but you know what I meant: Why dilute it any further?

I quote enough text that I don't look like a mental case.

The only place we vary on technique is that I like to seal the greasey
thing in a bucket or plastic bag, but up *out of the ammonia*. In my
experience it seems to be the fumes that clean the best.

If the pot is aluminum and old you might need to use a little aluminum
polish on it afterward.

Hoooold on. What is the pot made of? Stainless Steel? Aluminum?
Cast Iron? Anodized Aluminum?
