theres an old rule of chemistry
use no metels with acids and bases
and use no plastics with solvents

if SS "stainless steel"
whether it be nichrome or strait chromium steel
when it  gets involved with acids "like in your cooking batch"
the chromium in the ss will be leached out into solution

and will rear its ugly green emultion head
when you base
and shake with np.

if you use carbon steal ....
theres no chromium nor nickle in it

the iron and carbom may/will leach but i dont think they will create such a mess as does that damm changing color with ph changes ......chromium does!
