3Does this answer your question? [Is it safe to use a tea kettle with black dots on the bottom?](https://cooking.stackexchange.com/questions/43561/is-it-safe-to-use-a-tea-kettle-with-black-dots-on-the-bottom) – GdD Jul 13 '22 at 13:08

Welcome to the site. I'm voting to close this as it's a duplicate of another question, although you have white dots it's the same answer - mineral deposits which don't impact safety in the slightest. – GdD Jul 13 '22 at 13:10

This is aluminum oxidation and it's there because the previous user left it over to dry by itself. I have some aluminum mokas and managed to get this earlier. This level of aluminum is safe to ingest and otherwise it's the same thing GdD said to you in a comment

i didn't see a comment other than yours, is there anything you suggest i do Damian? vinegar, baking soda, etc, etc, is there anything i can do, and you would feel safe drinking out of it daily? thanks in advance, and thank you for your answer. – sister Jul 13 '22 at 21:43
