What is a Steam Jacketed Kettle with Agitator?
A jacketed kettle features a double-walled construction. The inner wall holds your product, while the outer jacket circulates a heating medium—in this case, steam. This design provides gentle, uniform, and efficient indirect heating, preventing scorching and ensuring consistent product quality. The integrated agitator continuously mixes the contents, which is crucial for even heat distribution, maintaining texture, and achieving perfect homogeneity. This equipment is ideal for products requiring controlled heating and continuous mixing, such as tomato paste, fruit jam, sauces, and juice concentrates.
Why Choose Our Steam Jacketed Kettle?
Our kettles are built with precision for demanding industrial environments. Here are the key features that set us apart:
1. Robust Construction: Made from high-grade, food-contact approved stainless steel (304 or 316L), ensuring hygiene, corrosion resistance, and easy cleaning.
2. Uniform Steam Heating: The steam jacket delivers consistent heat across the entire cooking surface, eliminating hot spots and guaranteeing that every batch is identical.
3. Efficient Mixing Agitator: Our agitator gently folds and mixes the product. It can be customized to prevent burning on the kettle’s bottom, which is ideal for milk, custards, and fruit jams.
