lol i had to use the biggest pot we had and flip it over halfway through
but it is good so far, just lots of tannins

That's a good thing... More tannins released now, the less in your tank.

Not always practical but use a bath, most people have one, cover it in boiling water from the kettle, I know it will take a while but I always do this with wood that I know is safe, if it's not that big use a bucke.

Nothing nasty should still be living
