Yep, I bought it on Amazon. It's stamped underneath as 304 stainless, but I'm suspicious. Here's the link to the exact one I purchased.
homEdge Espresso Steaming... Amazon.com
There are different grades & 'families' of stainless steel.
Some information:

Anyone can put a stamp of anything on any material. Keep that in mind
As far as good brands of stainless steel which should not cost a fortune, I have found Zebra brand to be very good. I used to buy stainless pots & melting vessels of this brand for making salves & such in a local Asian supermarket for a *very* good price. The stuff is heavy duty, nice & thick, and will probably outlive the majority of the world's population the way most of us are going
At the time I was buying that brand, I believe it was still made in Thailand ??

EDIT: my god, I have become the queen of typos lately...I feel like my brain is going through a 'rewiring', almost dyslexic for lack of a better term, because this is not something I have ever had an issue with....neuroplasticity...fascinating field! Therefore, my slurry is now slutty in another post LOL
Ya may see me put an advert up for them in the near future, we shall see....
A fair number of OMH FOs have a cherry smell and an almond smell. Could it be one of those?I keep sniffing and resniffing one of my FO samples (OMH from Lonestar) and I still can't tell if I like or dislike it. It definitely is not what I expected this to smell like, but I can't place exactly what it does smell like.
Maybe? I'm picking up something floral along with a touch of vanilla and oddly enough, that fake cinnamon broomstick smell.A fair number of OMH FOs have a cherry smell and an almond smell. Could it be one of those?
Fake cinnamon, yuck. That's not one I've smelled in OMH before. Thankfully!Maybe? I'm picking up something floral along with a touch of vanilla and oddly enough, that fake cinnamon broomstick smell.
I keep resniffing because I just can't tell what I'm actually smelling. I've had one friend say it smells like wood, another says it smells floral, and another says maybe a cookie? Then again, this is just sniffing the open bottle. Maybe it'll smell different in soap or lotion.Fake cinnamon, yuck. That's not one I've smelled in OMH before. Thankfully!
Just placed orders at 3 vendors. Am cutting it super close for ingredients to make lotion bars and lip balms. Many thanks to @not_ally for the tip on Abyssinian Oil!
Gah, that darned inventory guy, again, as always! Smart inventory staff would pay attention to Black Friday sales. But I can't let him go during this holiday season!
<holds up hand> I'd like Right of First Refusal, please!
It's here in Canada as well. I/we encountered it about 20 years ago when we were involved in opening a restaurant here.@Jorah I had to look that term up because I had no idea what it meant LOL I'm thinking....why does dude want to REFUSE something he wants....or am I just clueless...or is he taking the p*** as the British say....or? Turns out I was just clueless!
Is that a legal term used only in the US? Or elsewhere? I've never heard it uttered before
We don't know what we don't know

Yup, it's like hollering 'FIRST DIBS!' but in a workplace-acceptable tone.Ah ok, thanks for clearing that up....I never had to deal with any actual 'laws' when I had my small restaurant because I lived in a 'lawless' place - so to speak - at the time
