Why copper rather than stainless steel (the more common, less costly option)?
- e40 4y agoPerhaps because copper has antibacterial qualities? I use stainless steel, myself. Never plastic.
- bergenty 4y agoStainless steel is just as good.
- potatochup 4y agoIt could be that some people are sensitive to nickel (which is the 10 in typical 18/10 stainless steel)
- ClumsyPilot 4y agoCopper gets into acidic food, and is actually poisonous in large quantities
- michaelsshaw 4y agoCopper is actually a reactive metal, will leach into acidic liquids, and is generally not permitted for restaurant use for this reason.
