Long durability: The double boiler pot is made of stainless steel, rust-resistant and sturdy. Capacity: 2.5 cups (0.6 quarts, 450 mL). Convenient to use: Front hook prevents sliding; double pour spouts on both sides; flat bottom; cool-touch handle. Fully compatible with all stovetops, including induction, electric, ceramic, and halogen. Dishwasher safe. Multi-function: The 2.5-quart pot is ideal for heating food—such as milk, water, or sauces. The 1-quart top pot is designed for gentle, indirect heat, making it perfect for melting chocolate, butter, cheese, or preparing delicate sauces. How it works: Steam from hot water in the bottom pot heats the upper pot. This gentle, even heat is ideal for tempering chocolate, making custards, or melting sensitive ingredients. Usage tips: Do not place the double boiler directly over open flame. Fill the bottom pot with water to approximately one-third of its height—do not overfill. Discontinue heating once steam appears; avoid boiling dry. Cut chocolate into small pieces before melting—do not add large chunks. Wide application: Suitable for home kitchens, hotels, restaurants, and commercial use. Also functions as a sauce warmer or serving container. Color: Silver. Material: 304 stainless steel.
