I try to pour enough jigs at one time that I only have to pour once a year. I got a new 1/24th ounce jig mold a couple weeks ago and wanted to pour some. Plugged up the pot, got ready to pour and nothing at all would come out of the bottom pouring port. I took a torch tip cleaner and jabbed it up in the hole for a while. Still nothing. I ended up having to pour all the lead out of the top of the pot, take the stem out, and clean the port with a drill bit to get all the rust out of it. I'm guessing that the rust is caused by Galvanic corrosion? Do you guys store your pots with lead in them, or empty them each time? I don't see a way around emptying it each time, but wanted to ask, because I know there are guy here who know way more about it that me. Back when I used the pot every few months, I never had this problem.
