Building a mash tun

[chungking]

Is zinc, brass, or other metals a no-no for hardware when constructing a mash tun? or is stainless steel the preferred option?

Stainless is preferred as it's easy to clean, durable, and unlikely to contain lead (unlike cheap brass).

What size mash tun? A cooler works best and won't kill you

Sorry I misread, you were talking about hardware. I'm dumb
