Commercial Bain Marie | Food Warmer | 4 Round Pots | Wet Heat | Modena BMH4

Q: What is a 'wet heat' bain marie?

A: It uses a chamber of hot water to gently heat the food pots from below. This provides even heat and  stops delicate foods like sauces and  soups from drying out or catching on the bottom.

Q: Is this unit suitable for solid foods too?

A: Yes, while it's perfect for liquids, it works just as well for holding items like baked beans, chilli, or pulled pork.

Q: How easy is it to clean?

A: Very easy. The four stainless steel pots and  lids are fully removable for washing in the sink. The main water chamber has a drain tap and  can be simply wiped clean once it's cool.

Q: What does the 'anti-dry burn' feature actually do?

A: It's a safety cutout that automatically switches the heating element off if it detects the water level has dropped too low. This prevents the element from burning out and  damaging the machine.

Q: How precise is the temperature control?

A: The simple dial thermostat allows you to set the temperature anywhere between 30°C and  110°C, giving you accurate control for a wide variety of foods.

Q: Does this need to be installed by an electrician?

A: Not at all. It comes fitted with a standard 13-amp UK plug, so you can plug it straight into the wall and  start using it immediately.

Q: How much does each pot hold?

A: This model includes four individual round pots, and  each one has a capacity of 3.5 litres.

Q: Can I use different sized pots in this unit?

A: This unit is designed specifically for the four 3.5L round pots that it comes with to ensure optimal heating and  a snug fit.
