subject: Cast Iron Kettles

-> I recently managed to obtain an old cast iron kettle that must be
-> about 100 years old.
-> Now I want this to sit on my wood stove and keep water hot for my
-> coffee. Trouble is is seems to rust as it boils. It seems to need
-> sealing of some sort.
We used to heat up cast iron frying pans, and rub cooking oil in them.
Seemed to make a black film over the iron so it didn't rust.  Wouldn't
recommend any other kind of sealant, though...
