The proportions of the pot support slow reduction and long cooking processes, allowing ingredients to move naturally through the liquid without excessive evaporation from an oversized surface area. For sites producing daily stocks or running soup on the menu through a full service, this capacity is a practical working size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePractically, aluminium offers good thermal conductivity and keeps weight manageable when the pot is full.
