Groen DEES/40C 40 Gallon Steam Jacketed Kettle - Manual Tilt, Enclosed Base

At 40 gallons the DEES/40C is a production vessel rather than a service one. Floor mounting sets the rim at a height where a transport pan can catch the pour. The kettle makes its own steam electrically, which suits a building with no gas service.

Heat reaches the food through a steam jacket rather than a heated plate, and condensing steam holds one temperature across the whole heated surface. The sheet gives 50 PSI as the maximum working pressure. One operator works the crank, and the mechanism holds its position when the handle is released.

Groen builds the vessel in type 316 stainless in one welded piece. A 180 emery grit interior is specified, which shows every time the vessel is washed. The liner is type 316 stainless, and that grade is what carries an acidic menu year after year. Classic covers power, temperature and the warning lights, Advanced adds a display and a timer, and Cook2Temp adds the probe. The listings are UL, NSF and ASME.

It is offered for 208 V or 240 V, single or three phase service; choose the electrical option above. The pour side needs an aisle wide enough for a loaded transport pan. A drain within reach shortens the wash-down at the end of a run.
