The Cleveland TKET12T is a twin-unit 12-gallon commercial steam-jacketed kettle featuring a manual tilt mechanism and a 2/3-jacket design, operating on 240v/3ph electric. Engineered for high-volume soup, sauce, stock, and braised food production, the 12-gallon capacity allows high-throughput operations running two simultaneous batches to produce large quantities of soups, stocks, sauces, gravies, puddings, and braised dishes in a single cooking cycle. Cleveland steam kettles are trusted by schools, hospitals, hotels, correctional facilities, and large-scale catering and food production operations across North America.
The 2/3-jacket construction of the TKET12T surrounds the bottom two-thirds of the cooking vessel with steam from the electric heating elements, providing concentrated bottom-heat for rapid stock and sauce production with exceptionally even temperature distribution that prevents hot spots and scorching. The manual tilt mechanism allows the entire cooking vessel to be tilted forward for easy, controlled pouring into transport containers, stockpots, or smaller vessels without the need to ladle product by hand — dramatically reducing portion time and labor for large-batch production. The polished stainless steel interior surface is smooth, non-reactive, and easy to clean between production batches.
The electrically heated boiler produces steam internally from the electric heating elements, making this a fully self-contained unit that does not require a facility steam connection. This flexibility allows the kettle to be installed in any location with the appropriate electrical connection, even in kitchens without central steam. The 12-gallon capacity makes this kettle appropriate for producing restaurant-scale batch quantities of soups, sauces, and braised items that exceed the capacity of standard stockpots and range cooking.
Cleveland Range has been manufacturing commercial steam cooking and steam kettle equipment for over a century, and the TKET12T reflects the design experience and material quality that have made Cleveland kettles a standard in institutional and commercial foodservice kitchens. The TKET12T is NSF certified, meeting food safety and sanitation requirements for commercial cooking equipment. The 2/3-jacket design focuses heat at the bottom of the vessel for efficient heat transfer in fluid stocks, soups, and sauces where bottom heating is the primary requirement. Backed by Cleveland Range's commitment to commercial steam kettle quality, durability, and performance trusted by professional foodservice operators.
