I just picked this up for $30 here locally. Another step towards all grain brewing.

Is there an easy way for me to check whether it is SS or aluminum?

 

[sittingturbo]

I would guess put a magnet to it... Not sure that would work, but aluminum is super non magnetic, if my science serves me correctly

 

[Bytor1100]

Yeah, it's not magnetic, but I've also read the SS they use for kegs isn't magnetic also.

It's stainless.

 

[skou]

It's stainless.

Yep, if it is a keg, then it's stainless.

Period!

Aluminum, (or aluminium, for you Brits) is NOT something I'd like to store beer in, for any length of time.

That's a nice find for $30. If you use a plasma cutter or have someone use a plasma cutter to cut a hole it the top remember to put a few inches of water in it to prevent slag from damaging the bottom. Make certain to release all the pressure from that puppy before doing anything with it.
