Abstract
Austrian manufacturer HWM has launched the I-Stockpot, a freestanding induction hob which is designed to handle pans up to 70 litres.

Supplied in the UK by CuisinEquip, the HWM range is known for its ‘quality, efficiency and design’ all over the world. Positioned at a height of 500mm and with dimensions of 480mm x 480mm the unit will fit into existing kitchens.

The I-Stockpot features a powerful 8.5kW induction hob and a simple-to-operate, single-dial controller. A robust 6mm Ceran glass-ceramic hob combines the aesthetics of glass with the extreme heat resistance and stability of ceramic material. This enables the unit to heat pans with a diameter of up to 46cm and a capacity of up to 70 litres.  

Steve Elliott, sales director at CuisinEquip, said: “In today’s age of ever-increasing overheads, operators are looking at ways in which they can reduce the energy consumption in their kitchen. The use of induction technology is not something that is new to our industry and for many chefs, its use has not only saved ongoing costs, but also helped generate a better working environment for their brigade. Induction has traditionally had its limitations though – especially when cooking large quantities of foods.

“Using high-powered coils and the latest induction technology, the I-Stockpot is ideal for those sites making their own stock, soups and sauces on a large scale. What’s more, the very nature of induction technology eliminates open flames, helping to support safety in a kitchen, particularly when in use for the 24-48 hours it takes to produce the very best stocks.”
