Hey folks, I've been considering using stainless steel for microwave container casting. Is it a practical and safe option?
I believe stainless steel can cause problems due to reflected microwaves. It might not heat up evenly, or it may even damage the microwave. Anyone got any hands-on experience with this?
is right. Stainless steel can sometimes cause arcing in microwaves, potentially damaging the oven. It might be safe for casting, but microwaving is a different ball game.
Been there, done that! It's not a good idea. My friend had to replace a microwave because they tried microwaving a stainless steel container.
