Is Stainless Steel Safe for Microwave Oven Container Casting? - JacksonT - 01-13-2025
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.
