I imagine that stainless would just give it a place to plate out and weaken the batch considerably. you would have to watch it on a wood stove and that would be a long task. You don't want it to boil and it evaporates very slowly. You might rig up a way to heat with a candle under a metal plate of some sort with a glass vessel containing the CS. Used coffee pots are quite cheap and would be a good investment. Dave
