This offer ends in:
The VICSWQ10 holds 10 litres of soup at serving temperature in commercial service environments. It runs on 400W single-phase power and integrates into front-of-house operations where staff serve customers directly from the unit. Cafeterias, hotel breakfast stations, and self-service counters use this model during peak meal periods.
Commercial Application
This kettle solves the operational problem of maintaining soup at 75–85°C without continuous stovetop attention. Kitchen staff prepare batches in bulk cooking equipment, then transfer finished product to this holding unit at the service counter. The aluminium insert distributes heat evenly across the base and sidewalls.
During lunch service, a 10-litre capacity supports approximately 40 portions at 250ml per serving. Staff ladle directly from the insert without removing it from the base unit. The black housing remains cool to the touch while the thermostat holds internal temperature stable for three to four hours of continuous service.
