[Syrupmakers] Syrup pan

[sjward]

` In Houston, 4' X 10', 16 gauge SS was $ 697.50.   The same in copper was $ 876.00, last Monday, as the price of copper vary and is requoted daily.

    Good Afternoon all.
    I have a question that has come up regarding the metal to build a pan out of.  I went to our local metal  supply company this week, and priced  4X10 sheets of stainless and copper. After getting the prices and a near coronary, I decided that if I had a pan built out of 14 carat gold it would cost only $14 more, I have started looking for alternatives.  There for the questions.  Has any one had a pan made out of 1/8" or 3/16" inch plate steel?  If so,what problems did you have with it? Were there rusting or corrosion problems? did it affect the taste, color, or cause other problems with the syrup.  I know that cast iron pans were and are pretty normal boiling pans, but I have never really heard of one built out of cold rolled. any help would be appreciated.  And if any one knows of a stainless pan for sale, reasonably priced and I don't have to go to Alaska to pick it up I am open for that also
