Why should I buy the BS3W?

The Lincat BS3W is a wet heat bain marie supplied with 2 round stainless steel pots and lids. Each round pot has a 4.5 litre capacity, which is 8 pints in old money. A wet heat bain marie is effectively a water bath in which the food is gently and steadily heated to the desired temperature. Wet heat bain marie provide a moist environment and are particularly good for emulsifying delicate sauces like hollandaise and beurre blanc, without curdling them. They will also melt chocolate and make custards. Bain marie generally are an ideal appliance for holding sauces, gravies and pre cooked foods such as soups, pasta sauces, peas, baked beans, curry sauces, porridge and hot condiments in such a way that they do not lose their freshness or dry out. Bain marie become indispensable when preparing and batching up large quantities of foodstuffs ready for the day’s business. They will safely hold pre cooked foods at the required temperature for up to 2 hours without loss of flavour or texture. The temperature is thermostatically controlled for precision and consistency. In effect, bain marie increase shelf life and can dramatically reduce food waste. A bain marie, used sensibly, will lower raw food costs and increase profitability.

This 2 pot bain marie is perfect for the small to medium sized catering business. It’s a plug in appliance so mobile caterers love it; it’s good too for outside functions and hospitality events.  Because this bain marie from Lincat is stylish in looks, it also lends itself to front of house hot buffets and self service outlets. The stainless steel pots are attractive and compact and look good when displayed on a service counter. The BS3W is a counter top unit fitted with anti slip nitrile feet. The unit is easy to use: add water to around a 10mm depth, switch on and allow the unit to warm up for 20 minutes; set the temperature to the desired level then add the hot food to the pots. It’s important to make sure that sufficient water immerses the bath. There is a front drain tap for easy draining.  Bain marie are not cookers and are intended to maintain temperature rather than actually cook foods.

The power rating is 1kW so the unit just plugs into a standard socket; a 13A plug is fitted as standard.  The polished finish looks attractive and the fully sealed surface makes for quick and easy cleaning.
