hi all
i would like to make an aluminum cooking pot .
which aluminum alloy should i use ?


Aluminum isn't good either unless it's coated so the food doesn't touch
the
aluminum. Better to be made from stainless steel.


Nothing wrong with aluminum for cooking pots. Commercial
kitchens use them all the time. I don't the specific alloy,
but any kitchen supply store will have lots of plain aluminum
cooking pots and it isn't coated.

The newer ones are anodized to seal the metal.
