Stalgast 7.2 L stainless steel pot with lid, 240 mm

A stainless steel pot with a close-fitting lid transfers heat evenly from the hob to the food inside. The encapsulated base spreads the heat across the entire bottom surface, preventing hot spots that can scorch or leave some areas undercooked. This method keeps the temperature steady while the pot is on the heat, so sauces thicken smoothly and stocks simmer without constant stirring.

To use the pot, place it on a compatible hob—gas, electric, ceramic or induction—and turn the heat to the desired setting. The welded steel handles stay cool enough to grip even when the pot is hot, allowing the operator to lift and move it without a cloth. Once the food is added, the lid seals in steam, speeding up cooking and retaining moisture. After use, the pot can be washed by hand or placed in a commercial dishwasher.

The pot is constructed from stainless steel with a satin finish, which resists corrosion and staining under daily kitchen conditions. The 7.2 litre volume provides enough capacity for soups, stews or sauces without crowding, while the 240 mm diameter fits standard professional hobs and worktops. The overall height of 160 mm allows stacking with other pots of similar size for storage.

The encapsulated base and welded handles are designed for frequent use, reducing warping and loosening over time. The pot's weight remains manageable for lifting when full, and its footprint leaves room on the hob for additional pans.

Cleaning involves removing food residue with a non-abrasive sponge and detergent. The satin finish hides minor scratches, and the dishwasher-safe construction simplifies routine upkeep in a busy kitchen.
