how big is your stock pot? mine is 22 litres

mine is a 11.9qt sitram.

Why?

>>8431802
no reason

just interested in what people had to work with

12 qt is about the minimum i'd go in terms of usefulness, maybe 15

I use it to make a gallon of chicken stock or boil water for pasta/big pot blanching for vegetables. Anything bigger and I'd have to buy a new stove with stronger burners. It still takes over 25 minutes to get water to a full boil when it's full.

sounds like something's wrong with your stove

try replacing a burner and see if that helps, they're like $12

you can also try just cleaning the contacts (i assume this is an electric stove we're talking about)

I have several. My dutch oven is 4 gallons and I have several sauce pants that are near and around that general capacity. I rarely but them all out unless I'm making a from-scratch pasta sauce.

Estimating, I think my total volume for sauce pans would bout about 26 gallons.

It's gas and I cleaned all of the little orifices in the flame spreader with pic related. I then just bought a new one on amazon when it didn't work. I think my stove is just cheap.

oi

i hope you have a working carbon monoxide detector

>people unironically buy copper stockpots

picked up a solid 10 litre lead pot at a market the other day. will i need a lid to use it for stock? would wrapping foil over the top suffice?

Mine is a litre, but it is the thought that u give to the ingredients that u add that makes a good stock pot.

My mom told me.

you could probably get away with a cartouche at a push bro
