Blodgett KTG-12E 12 Gallon Countertop Electric Steam Jacketed Kettle with Gear Box Tilt Mechanism - 208V, 3 Phase, 12 kW

Blodgett KTG-12E208/3 Details

Increase your production capabilities while saving energy and labor with this Blodgett KTG-12E 12 gallon countertop tilting electric steam jacketed kettle with a hand crank tilt mechanism. The tilting mechanism allows this unit to tilt forward 90 degrees so that you can empty the contents with ease. Since this kettle uses a gear box with a hand crank, it offers smoother, more controlled tilting than many manual tilt countertop steam kettles. Plus, the mechanism is self-locking and has a positive stop action so that it can hold any position.

Designed with a closed, self-contained steam system, this unit only requires an electrical connection rather than a direct steam line or a water line. Its 12 gallon capacity allows you to prepare large batches of your signature soups, stews, or pasta without the hassle of ranges or stock pots. As a countertop model, this kettle lets you expand your cooking equipment lineup without taking up valuable floor space and it comes with concealed mounting lugs that let you mount it securely to your counter.

This unit has manual controls that let you precisely control the temperature between 165 and 290 degrees Fahrenheit, and thanks to its 2/3 jacketed design this kettle has 1-2 times more heat transfer surface area than a traditional stock pot. This means you'll have faster heat-up and cook times, which increases overall efficiency and production. Other features that help keep your kitchen running smoothly include the thermostat, cook indicator light, pressure gauge, and power switch.

With more even heating, there is less need for frequent stirring or "pot watching." The hemispherical bottom ensures superior heat circulation, which helps keep the heat inside the kettle and prevents energy from being lost to the surrounding kitchen area.

This kettle is manufactured with a type 304 stainless steel exterior and a type 316 stainless steel interior cooking surface that are highly stain- and corrosion-resistant. This allows much easier cleaning and maintenance of the cooking and exterior surfaces. Plus, the elements are removable to simplify maintenance.

Safety features include a safety valve, low water light, and a low water shut-off that prevents use if the sealed kettle jacket loses water. It requires a 208V, 3 phase electrical connection.
