- Built to last: The heavy-gauge stainless steel construction feels virtually indestructible in a commercial setting.
- Weight when full: At 10 litres, it gets very heavy, requiring careful handling.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Cumbrian Pie Kitchen" in Penrith was struggling to keep up with demand for their signature steak and ale pies. The traditional slow-cooking method for their beef brisket was creating a bottleneck in production.
"We were spending hours just waiting for the meat to get tender. The Artame pressure cooker has completely changed our prep schedule. We can now cook three batches of brisket in the time it used to take us to do one, and the quality is consistently brilliant."
Robert Finch – Head Chef
The switch allowed them to increase their weekly pie output by over 40%, meeting wholesale orders without needing to extend kitchen hours or hire more staff.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, wash the pot, lid, and rubber gasket thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
- Familiarise yourself with the locking mechanism; ensure it engages securely with an audible click.
- Never fill the pressure cooker more than two-thirds full to allow space for steam to build.
- For foods that expand (like beans or rice), only fill it up to the halfway mark.
Keeping It Going
- Always clean the pot and lid after every single use to prevent food build-up.
- Carefully remove and clean the rubber gasket, ensuring no food particles are trapped.
- Regularly check that the pressure release valve is clear and free from any blockage.
- Store with the lid placed upside down on the pot, rather than sealed, to allow air to circulate and protect the gasket.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's the main benefit of a pressure cooker over a standard stockpot?
A: Speed and flavour. It can reduce cooking times by up to 70% and locks in more nutrients and taste compared to conventional boiling or simmering.
Q: Is this model difficult to use?
A: Not at all. It's a very straightforward manual pressure cooker. Once you're familiar with the secure locking lid and heat management, it's very simple to operate.
Q: Can I use this on my induction hob?
A: Yes, the Artame CM580 is fully induction compatible, as well as being suitable for gas, electric, and solid top hobs.
Q: How do I know when it's at the right pressure?
A: The pressure valve will begin to release a steady, gentle stream of steam. You then lower the heat to maintain this state for the duration of the cooking time.
Q: What foods is it best for?
A: It excels at cooking things that normally take a long time: tough cuts of meat (like brisket or shanks), dried beans, lentils, stocks, and dense vegetables.
Q: How full can I fill it?
A: A maximum of two-thirds full for most foods, and only half-full for ingredients that expand, like pulses or grains.
Q: Is the stainless steel construction easy to clean?
A: Yes, stainless steel is non-porous and very easy to clean with standard washing-up liquid. The smooth interior prevents food from sticking badly.
Q: How is this different from a domestic pressure cooker?
A: It's built for commercial use, meaning heavier-gauge steel, a larger capacity, and more robust components designed to withstand daily, intensive use.

Explore more from ArtameHow Pressure Cooking Unlocks Speed and Flavour
Ever wondered how a commercial pressure cooker works its magic? Think of it like a time machine for cooking. In a normal pot, water boils at 100°C. The Artame's sealed lid traps the steam, which builds up pressure inside. This increased pressure raises the boiling point of the water to around 121°C. It's this super-heated, high-pressure environment that works wonders. It forces heat and moisture deep into food fibres far quicker than boiling or simmering ever could, drastically reducing cooking times while simultaneously making meats and pulses incredibly tender and locking in their natural flavours.
