Will an aluminum pot be OK, or will it leave a metallic taste in the beer? I bought a 32 quart pot today not thinking about what it was made out of and it turned out to be aluminum.
Same size pot? Go for the stainless.
Aluminum pots work just fine, as long as you remember to boil some water in them before you use them for beer or food. You need to build up a passive oxide layer before you trust your wort to them.

hmm. the aluminum pot that I got seems fairly thin, what is the thickness of your "tamale" steamer
