Stainless steel

[dutch701]

Hi guys ,

I have the chance of getting my hands on a small stainless steel brewery tank to ferment my cider in but it is 304 grade and not 316, would this be ok to use or would the apple juice attack the stainless,

Best regards Shane.

304 would be fine in this application. It is frequently used in food and beverage industry and will not be attacked by the apple juice.
