Guest guest Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 Hi I would think that Stainless teel can be used for brewing kombucha. The problem is that All stainless steel are not created equal... The better stainless steel is non-reactive and would not react with the KT compounds. I know that one commercial KT is brewed in stainless steel. IIRC GT's Dave Kombucha is brewed in big Stainless Steel containers. I am certain these have been tested or are food or laboratory grade. If one cannot ascertain the quality of one's stainless steel it is best to keep brewing in glass, then again even some glasses have lead in them so... I would not make it a rule NOT to brew in stainless steel or other non-reactive alloys or metals(Gold, Platinum > I have always brewed mine in stainless steel, and steeped it in there as > well.
