Subject: Metallic taste from aluminum cooking pots?

I elected to try pasteurizing my last (second!) batch of cider, and 
the resulting product had a slight "metallic" taste - could this have 
been from the pot? 

It's possible that it's not - I used a half gallon of food-grade apple 
concentrate to up the gravity, and that might be throwing of the 
flavor. 

I tried using cinnamon, and the bubbles from the airlock smell great!
