Electric soup kettle Stalgast 432115

A soup kettle maintains a large volume of liquid at a steady, low temperature, allowing soups, sauces and stocks to simmer without scorching or boiling over. The heating element sits beneath the vat and warms the contents evenly, while the insulated walls and tight-fitting lid reduce heat loss and evaporation. Because the heat is gentle and distributed across the base, delicate ingredients such as roux, cream or fresh herbs cook through without breaking down or sticking to the bottom.

To use the kettle, fill it with the required liquid up to the marked level, close the lid, and set the desired temperature on the electronic control panel. The display shows the current temperature and the target setting, so the operator can monitor progress without lifting the lid. Once the temperature is reached, the kettle holds it automatically, freeing the chef to attend to other tasks. The cut-out in the lid allows a spoon to be left in place for stirring without losing heat or steam.

The housing is constructed from matt stainless steel for durability and easy cleaning. The control panel is sealed to protect against splashes, and the temperature can be adjusted in single-degree steps between 65 °C and 95 °C, giving precise control over delicate reductions and long simmers.

A 9 litre capacity provides enough volume for batch production in a small to medium kitchen, while the compact footprint of 395 mm diameter and 340 mm height fits on most worktops or under standard shelving. The 0.4 kW power rating keeps the electrical load light, suitable for a standard 230 V single-phase circuit commonly found in professional kitchens.

Cleaning involves wiping the exterior with a damp cloth and washing the interior vat with warm soapy water after each use. The lid and cut-out are removable for thorough cleaning, and the matt finish resists fingerprints and smudges during service.

The kettle is listed in the Stalgast catalogue under counter-top cooking equipment for soups, sauces and stocks.
