Note: All copper pans are excellent conductors of
heat, and are hard wearing and strong, but need
quite a lot of care. They can be very heavy and do
not usually have completely flat bases. The interiors
are usually lined with a different material such as tin.
A stainless steel pan with a sandwich base of
aluminium and stainless steel is an excellent
conductor of heat and is suitable for use on ceramic
and halogen hobs, providing they are used in
accordance with the saucepans manufacturers’
recommendations.
Stainless steel pans with a sandwich base of
aluminium and copper are excellent conductors of
heat. If using stainless steel saucepans with
aluminium and copper sandwich bases on ceramic
and halogen hobs, the use of these pans must be in
accordance with the saucepan manufacturers’
recommendations.
Extra care should be taken to ensure the base of the
pan and the hob is cleaned, and the hob
conditioned, after each and every use, when using
this type of saucepan.
If these recommendations are not followed, the
result will be a build up of small copper deposits on
the surface of your hob which, if not cleaned after
each use, will result in permanent marking of your
hob.
Always lift the pan from the hob, do not
