Stalgast Stockpot with Lid Ø 400 mm, 50.3 L

It falls under the category of cooking pots.

The operating principle of a stockpot is straightforward: it is a vessel designed for heating and cooking large quantities of liquid or semi-liquid food. The heat is applied to the base, which transfers it to the contents. The lid helps to retain heat and moisture, speeding up the cooking process and preventing evaporation. The multi-layer encapsulated base is constructed to distribute heat evenly across the bottom of the pot, reducing the risk of hot spots and sticking.

To use the stockpot, ingredients and liquid are added to the pot. The lid is then placed on top. The pot is placed on a heat source, and the contents are brought to the desired temperature for cooking. The steel handles provide a secure grip for moving the pot, even when full.

Construction is from stainless steel, providing a hygienic cooking surface. It features a satin finish, contributing to its professional appearance. The pot is equipped with steel handles for safe handling. The multi-layer encapsulated base is a key feature for heat distribution.

Specifications for this model include a diameter of 400 mm and a height of 400 mm. The total volume is 50.3 litres. These dimensions indicate a substantial capacity suitable for batch cooking.

Cleaning involves washing the interior and exterior surfaces. The stainless steel construction allows for straightforward cleaning, and the encapsulated base should be kept free of burnt-on residue to maintain its heat-spreading properties.

This stockpot is listed in the catalogue under the LUX range for pots with lids.
