Well, that may have been because of copper, but I think it also has to do with the quality of WVO you get. Mine is some of the best, just liquid soy fryer oil that titrates to 1-2 KOH. Some of that diner stuff gets REALLY nasty with FFA, and that will probably corrode copper. Not to mention suspended water giving those ions motion....

So all I'm saying is, copper is probably ok IF you have good oil.
