Countertop Tilting Kettles

reservoir for a solution of heat transfer fluid and
distilled water for improved heating of the kettle
contents. The kettles are used to prepare a
variety of liquid or semi-liquid food products such
as soups, stews and sauces.
MODELS COVERED
The 6 and 12 gallon kettles can be mounted to a
