I'll jump in with something I learned from Mary. Get some fine steel wool, it will clean firescale right off. You can also order Cupronil from Rio Grande, it's a fire scale preventative. Spray it on the copper once the copper is warmed a bit.

I do a combination usually but there are times I forget to use the Cupronil. You just have to scrub a bit harder with the steel wool, it gets the job done.

HTH!
