Read More ReviewsGentle Heating
Great for a variety of cooking techniques, this double boiler set allows for a gentle cooking process to prevent burning and scalding of your ingredients. To use, simply fill the outer pot with water and heat it over your stovetop. When the water in the outer pot is boiling, place ingredients in the inner pot. They will heat gently rather than burning because they aren't in direct contact with the heat source.
Reliable Construction
Made with heavy-duty stainless steel, this boiler set is durable enough to withstand the rigors of everyday use and will serve as the workhorse of your commercial kitchen. With its nonreactive type 400 stainless steel interior and smooth surface, this pan is easy to clean, won't discolor, and won't react to acidic foods, which could impact the flavor of your dishes. Ideal for preheating and moisture-free cooking, the pots of this set feature an uncoated finish that's perfect for concocting gourmet sauces.
Convenient Design
The inset boasts smooth, rounded corners, which makes whisking and stirring a breeze while minimizing the risk of sticky foods becoming lodged in corners. The handles are securely welded to the boiler, which creates a strong bond and helps to minimize bacteria collection. The handles to the double boiler and inset also have convenient hanging holes that can be used to hang the set for convenient storage if desired. Plus, this boiler set ships complete with a flat cover to help retain heat while cooking, preventing unnecessary splatters.

Frequently Asked Questions From Customers
What's the difference between a riveted and a welded handle?
A riveted handle is connected by small metal pieces (called rivets) that are crushed between the handle and the pan body to attach them together. This type of handle is more common on copper and aluminum cookware.
For a handle to be welded, the metal must first be melted and then adhered to the pan body. This creates a strong bond that leaves little to no space in between, so bacteria and other food crumbs can’t collect and cause sanitation issues. Both are long lasting solutions for fry and sauce pan handles because they are durable and can withstand heat.

Why is the bottom of this cookware slightly concave?
This cookware is designed with a very slight concave bottom surface to allow the metal to expand when heating up without warping. This feature allows for the cookware to still be induction-compatible and will ensure optimal operating temperature when in use.

Light, induction approved, fast on heating and easy to maintain
As a pastry chef in a high-volume restaurant, I recently used the Vigor SS1 Series 2 Qt. Stainless Steel Double Boiler Set (Item #473SSDB2) to melt chocolate for truffles, and it’s a reliable tool for delicate tasks. This 3-piece set, made from 22-gauge type 400 stainless steel with a 4 mm aluminum-clad bottom, ensures even heat distribution, preventing scorching during chocolate tempering at 120°F.
Good basic double boiler for a great price. Pot is not clad, but that is not needed to boil water. Works well for melting chocolate and sauces, but lemon curd made in it had a metallic taste. Webstaurant quickly resolved the problem for us, so we are good.
Got the double boiler as a free ad on the 6-piece Vigor Stainless Steel Set. The bottom of the pot is thinner on the double boiler than the others which makes sense just pointing out for others if interested. Also, the inside of the upper part has a rivet that things will get stuck in but with a spatula you can get most of it out. Overall, I am very pleased with the function I have made a few sauces in it including hot fudge which came out well and I didn't have to worry about burning it.
Smaller then I expected but I’ll still us it for something
Thank you for the review Shanique. If you are looking for a larger double boiler, we have a great selection of other sizes available - use the "Capacity" filter to narrow down to the size you are looking for!
