A commercial soup kettle holds soup, stew, gravy or a hot drink at serving temperature on the counter, so a restaurant, bar or catering kitchen can ladle out a portion the moment it is ordered instead of heating one up. It holds the contents for hours without them drying out, which is what earns it the bench space. A soup warmer commercial kitchens buy is the same appliance.

Our commercial soup kettles include 6 litre models for a cafe up to 10 litre models for high turnover, so you can buy the size that suits your business at its current size, then size up as your business grows. Alongside them you will find everything from benchtop cooking equipment to refrigeration, delivered anywhere in Australia.

These are the top FAQs for Commercial Soup Kettles

What size soup kettle do I need?

Our range starts at 6 litres and goes up to 10 litres. A busy restaurant or a catering business feeding large crowds is better off with a 10 litre model, because you are not topping it up as often. Either size holds soup, stew or a hot drink at temperature for up to six hours.

How do they speed up service?

You are not heating and decanting a serve of chilli, soup, beans or broth each time somebody orders one. The food sits at temperature and keeps its moisture, and the lid lifts off so you can ladle a portion straight into a bowl or a takeaway cup. Faster service, hot food, and nobody waiting at the counter.

Which soup kettles are most popular?

The ones from Apuro, who make a lot of the benchtop equipment our customers buy, including grills, food mixers and sous vide.

Can I use it for sauces, stews and mulled wine?

Yes. The temperature range runs from about 35℃ up to 98℃, so you can set it for soups and chowders, broths and chillis, or hot drinks like mulled wine and cider.

What safety features do they have?

The temperature range is the main one. You can set it anywhere from about 35℃ to 98℃ and it will hold food at temperature for up to six hours. Because it does not go above 98℃ nothing boils, and the lid traps and recycles the condensation so the soup, wine or chilli does not dry out.

The lid makes serving quick and keeps the mess down. They also come apart easily at the end of a shift, so washing one up is no trouble.

Are they cheap to run all day?

They are efficient over a long service, because once the contents are up to temperature the unit holds them there for up to six hours. Keep it plugged in where you can, though it is portable, which makes it useful for catering, food trucks and outdoor events.

What are they made of?

The part worth checking is the inner pot. It is usually stainless steel, which is easy to clean and makes food less likely to catch while you are holding it.

What else are commercial soup kettles called?

You will see soup warmer commercial, commercial soup pot, industrial soup kettle, commercial soup maker, restaurant soup warmer, commercial soup cooker, commercial soup kettle warmer, commercial kitchen soup warmer and commercial soup kettle cooker used for the same kind of equipment. The name changes with the supplier and the region, not the job it does.
