RE: CSsafety of crystal
I've always understood lead is in all crystal glassware, quantity dependant on manufacturer. I brewed a batch in a crystal jug years ago and it turned tea coloured in a very short time. I assumed electrolysis of the silver interacted with the lead in the crystal? Was always going to repeat the exercise to satisfy myself one way or tuther, but never have. N.

Re: CSsafety of crystal
My understanding is that there is lead crystal which is manufactured with lead and then there is crystal manufactured without it.

Thank you Neville. I won't be making silver water in it but still drinking fruit juice may not be smart.

Marshall, thank you for this. I just hit all my glasses with a fork. everyone makes a ring sound even the plain cheap juice glasses that have no prism or crystal appearance.

Hi all, My general advice is that you use borosilicate glass for brewing that way you can significantly minimise the effects of anything leeching into the water and other interactions that may occur.
