I'm curious if the steel is sensitive to Acidic Juices (Oranges and Lemons/Limes) as well as Soda's?

These are designed for Coffee and tea, I suggest you pick a real cheap plastic bottle for that purpose if you are so taste sensitive.

I have never used this for fruit juices or sodas, however, there is not reason for the stainless steel to give any problems. I have other stainless cups and use it for a variety of beverages.

Depending on the item, I think it could. I agree, acid might mess up the metal but other foods may be just fine.

yes as far as I know the alkaline strips will let you know if the beverage is alkaline. BTW coffee is highly acidic

High carbon steel has better edge characteristics and can be made harder than stainless. In scissors, this is particularly important. We have been letting our scissors drip dry and have noted no corrosion.

Not that I'm aware of. It is made out of steel so it can take so larger pieces of fruit, unlike the plastic one I had. That one was fine for small lemons or limes but did not have the strength for oranges. Warranty or not I'm very happy to add this to my arsenal of kitchen tools.

Wear gloves, please, when using this at an unknown concentration. Acid is acid, and even lemon juice is not so kind to hands and it is only 5% citric acid. Be careful. You do not need to worry about it hurting the glass, however, if it is glass. We store it (high concentration citric acid) in glass in the lab.

It is steel and excellet product & results. I am new to juicing, started last year. I was amazed how much grass needed to get little juice. I feel i made a wise choice in purchasing this juicer. I do freeze in ice trays what I dont drink immediately after juicing. After the cubes freeze I just put in vacume seal and refreeze. I hope this helps.

I believe it's steel. I use for reptiles so I didn't have to worry about any water issues.

When I worked in my Mother's Restaurant, we cleaned all of the Stainless Steel with Club Soda! I know it sounds strange, but they all shined like new afterward, and no fingerprints! Hope this helps!

Yes, there is definitely some steel in the mechanism. Be aware that if you really like something like this, buy several. They don't last long.

I just checked and mine is steel. This is a really nice spray nozzle. Very comfortable to hold and use.

For me, the more acidic the juice, the more tolerable it was. Never pleasant but I recommend a small amount (1 mouthful) of pineapple juice with it. Helped some but I can't imagine a child drinking it.

I tested my two colanders with a magnet. It was non-reactive but I don't know whether that confirms SURGICAL steel or not.

The metal parts are aluminum but they do not come in contact with the food being juiced, the part that comes in contact with the food is a hard non-BPA plastic, very durable and will not leach anything into the juice.

I have not made fruit pies or cobblers, but it did not react with tomatoes which are also high acid. I have fermented Muscadine grapes, a variety of Scuppernong in a stainless stock pot with no problems. My guess is your old one was not pure stainless. A good stainless steel will not react.

Hello,I'm sorry to say that I cannot say for sure that that is its specific steel makeup...I don't have the box anymore. I use it in a commercial kitchen, but have only had it for about 4 months so I can't really speak to its durability yet.

This pan is porcelain coated carbon steel. No aluminum here. Yes you can use lemon. The metal is non reactive.
