Tilting Steam Kettle Stockpot

Product Overview

The Tilting Steam Kettle Stockpot is a high-performance, commercial grade cooking equipment engineered to redefine efficiency in large-batch food production. Unlike traditional stovetops that struggle with uneven heating and labor-intensive transfers, this equipment leverages steam-powered cooking (available in Direct Steam Injection or Jacketed Heating) to heat contents up to 3x faster—achieving 0–100°C in under 30 minutes for 50-gallon batches. Its standout ergonomic tilting system enables 90° hydraulic/pneumatic operation with one hand, eliminating the need to lift 500+ lbs loads and ensuring drip-free dispensing via a precision spout.

Crafted from NSF-Certified 304/316L Stainless Steel (3–5mm thick walls), the kettle resists corrosion, scorching, and acid damage—critical for long-term use with acidic ingredients like tomatoes or citrus. It meets global safety and pressure vessel standards, including UL/CE/CRN certification and ASME Section VIII compliance, making it suitable for regulated environments. Ideal for large-batch cooking of soups, stews, stocks, sauces, custards, and jams, it replaces multiple pots and transfer tools.

Technical Specifications

Application Scenarios

Hospital Kitchens & Soup Factories

Healthcare facilities and soup production plants require consistent, nutrient-preserving cooking. The Tilting Steam Kettle Stockpot’s precision temperature control (±1°C accuracy) ensures soups and broths retain vitamins, while its self-draining design (90° tilting) simplifies post-batch cleaning—critical for meeting healthcare hygiene standards.

Catering Services & Cruise Ship Galleys

Caterers and cruise lines operate in space-constrained environments. This kettle’s compact footprint replaces 3–4 traditional pots, freeing up counter space. The 90° tilting feature allows easy dispensing into serving pans or food containers, reducing spillage and labor during high-pressure events.

University Dining Halls & Correctional Facilities

High-traffic venues need cost-effective, efficient equipment. The kettle’s energy savings (40% less than stovetops) cuts utility bills, while locking tilting positions (15° for stirring, 45° for serving) let staff handle large batches safely—no more manual lifting of heavy pots.

Competitive Advantages

Unrivaled Efficiency

Faster Heating: Cuts batch time by 60% (e.g., 50-gal batches boil in <30 mins) vs. conventional stovetops.

Energy Savings: 40% lower energy use, plus reusable condensate options to minimize waste.

Safety & Compliance

OSHA-Compliant Design: Features cool-touch handles, auto pressure release valve, and 50PSI safety valves to prevent over-pressurization.

Food Safety Certifications: NSF/ASME/UL/CE compliance ensures adherence to global food processing standards.

Durability & Low Maintenance

Reinforced Construction: Hinges and base support 4x max capacity (e.g., 200-gal model handles 8,000 lbs), ensuring decades of use.

Hygienic Design: Smooth radius corners eliminate food traps, making health inspections stress-free.

FAQ

How do I clean the kettle?

The self-draining design empties completely when tilted to 90°, while stainless steel surfaces wipe clean with a damp cloth. For deep cleaning, it’s compatible with CIP (Clean-in-Place) systems (optional accessory) to automate sanitization.

Does it need a separate steam boiler?

No—electric models (all GL-series) include an integrated steam generator. Just connect to a 380V power source; no external boiler required.

Is it suitable for small kitchens?

Yes—smaller models (e.g., GL-100, 100L) fit mid-sized cafes or delis. Its compact design optimizes space better than multiple traditional pots.

Can it cook delicate recipes like custards?

Absolutely—its precision temperature control maintains low, steady heat (e.g., 70°C for custards), preventing curdling or burning.
