Karaca Swiss Crystal Almond Cream Non-Stick Induction Stainless Steel Handle Casserole & Lid, 24cm, Cream

Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the handles?

A: The handles are manufactured from 18/10 stainless steel, standard for commercial cookware applications. This grade resists corrosion from repeated washing and maintains structural integrity under thermal cycling.

Q: What is the maximum load capacity for batch cooking?

A: The 24cm diameter holds approximately 3.5 to 4 litres when filled to safe working capacity. This translates to 6-8 portions of stew or 1.5kg of cooked rice in typical café or small hotel service.

Q: Can the casserole withstand commercial dishwasher cycles?

A: The stainless steel handles and base tolerate commercial dishwasher temperatures. The Swiss Crystal non-stick surface may degrade faster under repeated high-temperature detergent cycles compared to hand washing.

Q: Is the non-stick coating suitable for metal utensil use?

A: Swiss Crystal coating is harder than standard PTFE but metal utensils will accelerate surface wear. Silicone or wooden utensils extend the non-stick lifespan in commercial operations where turnover is frequent.

Q: What induction hob wattage is required for optimal performance?

A: The casserole operates on induction hobs from 1400W upwards. Higher wattage units (2000W+) reduce time to boil and improve heat response during simmering phases in high-turnover service environments.
