Common Questions About Vollrath's Products
What sets Vollrath pans apart from other pans?
Made of 22-gauge, 300-series steel, these pans have the same thickness on every side, providing durability and ensuring a consistent heat pattern. Since Vollrath pans are built to a high standard and have a strong structure, they resist warping. When pans warp, it can prevent them from sitting flush on the table. A complete fit holds heat in the table and reduces the operational cost of your steam table. These pans do not release heat into the room, reducing the load on the HVAC system.
Vollrath's Super Pans have unique corners that are reinforced. This helps prevent the pans from becoming deformed, warped, or dented if they are dropped or banged together. This also enables users to pour product instead of having to scoop it out. These Vollrath pans are made in the United States in Sheboygan, Wisconsin.
What is Vollrath cookware made of?
Vollrath's aluminum cookware is a porous metal that responds quickly to temperature changes, such as heating up and cooling down repeatedly. The 1100 series aluminum is nearly a pure metal that is soft and more likely to dent and warp. Two alloys make up the 3000 series; this cookware is harder and stronger than pure 1100 series aluminum.
Stainless steel cookware heats up and cools down slower and less evenly than aluminum. However, because this material is non-porous, it does not transfer flavors between foods, and many cooks believe it creates more flavor by releasing more caramelized fat from the pan's bottom into the cooking sauce. Vollrath's stainless steel cookware is dent and corrosion resistant, so it can be used with acidic dishes.
Thinner and lighter than cast iron, carbon steel cookware heats up quickly and works well with high-heat cooking. Because of these features, it is often used in Vollrath's woks. Carbon steel is a ferrous metal, so it can be used with induction cooktops. This material requires seasoning before use.
The Vollrath Company offers clad cookware that has a non-ferrous stainless steel interior with a ferrous stainless steel exterior. The core between the two materials is most commonly aluminum, though could also be copper or carbon steel. This design provides the interior with the benefits of stainless steel cookware, while making the exterior compatible with induction equipment. The pan's core reduces heating and cooling times. Clad cookware from Vollrath can be fully clad, which heats evenly across the bottom and up the sides, or have a clad bottom, which only heats the base.
What are some of the features of Vollrath EaziClean® can openers?
Vollrath's EaziClean can openers have quick-release blade carriers that simplify cleaning. To further ease cleanup, the blades on these can openers have an anti-bacterial coating that slows harmful growth. The blades withstand heavy use since they are case hardened, and the high-grade steel cutting mechanism ensures the cut is clean without the risk of contamination from frayed metal shavings. For comfortable use, Vollrath's can openers are ergonomically designed.
