Features of ceramic pots

March 07, 2020

We talk a lot about cooking pots and often review both granite pots and enameled pots. In the new blog we are introducing today, we will tell you about a slightly different type of pot, called clay ceramic pots.

In short, these fireproof pots can be placed on the stove, gas stove, or electric stove without the risk of damaging it. The secret is that the material is made with heat-resistant soles.

Here are some tips on how to choose ceramic pots based on your tasks and needs.

What to consider when buying ceramic kettles:

Production and material characteristics:

The production of ceramics uses natural raw materials - clay, which is an amazing mineral.

It retains its strength and moisture resistance under the influence of high temperatures, and to improve the properties of the material, it contains various additives and reinforcing components. As you know, clay products have been made in ovens since ancient times.

Modern furnaces have high power, reaching temperatures of 1000 degrees.

Ceramic cookware is necessarily covered with enamel, which strengthens the material and reliably closes the pores. The top and bottom coatings are distinguished by their heat-resistant durability, and the inside has a smooth coating that protects against scratches.

Here, we share with you another blog from our online store regarding ceramic pots.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of clay ceramic pots?

The most important advantage is the high heat capacity and its uniform distribution. Ceramics are much better than cast iron in these parameters.

Dishes in ceramic pots turn out much tastier than in other materials. However, the biggest drawback of the material is that it is quite thick. In the worst case, while pots made of other materials can deform after falling to the floor, ceramic products can completely break after falling to the ground.

Also, before buying, it is important to consider that in order to bake in the oven, the ceramic material must withstand high temperatures.

Ceramic boiler volumes:

Typically, the capacity of durable ceramic pots does not exceed five liters. The most popular models are up to three liters, which can be placed in both ovens and microwaves.
Classic round, lidded pots are quite practical, with sturdy ceramic handles. Small pots with a capacity of 1-1.5 liters are quite convenient for preparing a meal for two people, while pots with a capacity of 3 to 5 liters are designed for more people.

We wish you a successful purchase!
