This is one of those videos that should be part of a "scrapping" playlist. Excellent, to-the-point, and encompassing explanation of brass that I think may be the first best general explanation on YT. Even talked about the scratch tests for brass! Thankyou!!!

I have a chocolat color brass that I wasn't sure if it was bronze. This came from the frame of a Tiffany style ceiling lamp. Might be red brass as you say ! Good video.

I always have a hard time telling red brass from copper

[BROutdoorz]

🤔 watching this video, I can’t help but to think that, while doing the scratch test, and seeing the gold colour to confirm, and putting the magnet on it to reveal it does not stick, how can one differentiate the brass from the copper..both can also be heavy, or light in weight, depending on the product..

Is brass with solder considered dirty brass?

Great vid superman.
I almost had a pink fit the other day going through my brass fitting and odd n ends. Some are ever so slightly magnetic. They will pick up a small neodymium magnet, barely.
What do you think.... Do you think this could be low quality or contaminated brass?
