The beer never touches the joints in the CFC. I used Bobby M's basic idea to make mine After reading several threads, I am leaning towards my water source being the culprit. I'll brew up a cheap/fast beer to confirm this using bottled water. The metal beers were made with water from my...

I'll pull out some brass and see if that scratches it, but thinking back, I'm pretty certain it's stainless. 1) It sparked pretty well during grinding and it didn't gum up the blades on my hole saw. 2) The cuttings that hit the bottom of the keg rusted and stained the bottom of the keg...
