Matfer Bourgeat Excellence Boiling Pot 17Ltr Stainless Steel

The Matfer Bourgeat Excellence Boiling Pot is a heavy-duty stainless steel stock pot designed for everyday high-volume preparation work in professional kitchens. At 17 litres, it sits in a practical mid-range capacity that handles large batches of stock, soups, pasta, potatoes, and pulses without being unwieldy to lift or store.

In a working kitchen environment, this pot earns its place through consistent, reliable performance. The stainless steel construction distributes heat evenly and holds up well to the rigours of daily use — repeated heating cycles, heavy contents, and regular washing. It is induction compatible, which makes it equally at home on induction ranges as on conventional gas or electric hobs, giving kitchens flexibility as equipment setups evolve.

Practically speaking, the key operational advantages are straightforward:

• Suitable for induction, gas, and electric hob surfaces
• Stainless steel build resists corrosion and withstands rigorous daily use
• A practical capacity for batch cooking without excessive weight when full
• Easy to clean and maintain to a hygienic standard
• Backed by a 10-year warranty, reflecting the build quality Matfer Bourgeat is known for

There are no unusual installation considerations — this is a freestanding piece of cookware requiring no fixed connection. One practical note: at 17 litres, the pot is a solid workhorse for mid-volume preparation, but kitchens producing very large batches continuously may find a higher-capacity model better suited to their throughput. Equally, for lighter prep work, a smaller pot from the same range may be a more efficient choice.

This pot is well suited to restaurants, pub kitchens, hotel operations, and catering teams where reliable, day-in day-out batch cooking is a regular part of service. If you are equipping a new kitchen or replacing ageing cookware and want to discuss which capacity works best for your operation, our team is happy to help you work through the options.
