The Harbour View Café in Penzance needed a more reliable method for serving their popular seafood chowder. Using a pot on the stove was causing inconsistent temperatures and occasional scorching during the busy lunch rush, leading to waste.
"It’s been a fantastic addition. We just switch it on in the morning, and the chowder stays perfect all day. Our customers get a great product every time, and we're not throwing burnt soup away anymore. It's simple, but it's made a huge difference."
Tom Clarke – Head Chef
Since introducing the Buffalo soup warmer, the café has eliminated wastage from burnt batches and can serve customers faster, increasing their lunchtime soup sales by over 30%.
Ever used a double boiler at home to melt chocolate gently? The Buffalo G107 commercial soup kettle uses the exact same principle, known as 'wet heat' or a 'bain-marie'. Instead of a direct heating element touching the food pot, the element heats a surrounding jacket of water. This water then provides a consistent, gentle warmth to the inner pot holding your food. This is the secret to holding delicate soups, sauces, gravies, or even mushy peas at the perfect temperature for hours. It completely eliminates hot spots, which prevents the food from scorching, sticking to the bottom, or drying out. It ensures the last serving of the day tastes just as fresh and delicious as the first.
Q: Can I cook soup from scratch in this kettle?
A: No, the Buffalo G107 is a food warmer, not a cooker. It's designed to hold pre-cooked food at a safe and consistent hot temperature for service.
Q: What is 'wet heat operation'?
A: It means the unit uses a reservoir of hot water to gently heat the inner food pot, much like a bain-marie. This prevents food from burning or drying out.
Q: How much does it weigh when empty?
A: It weighs just 4.82kg without any food or water, making it very portable and ideal for mobile caterers or event use.
Q: What's the maximum temperature?
A: The temperature can be adjusted with the dial to anywhere between 35°C and 95°C, giving you great control over holding temperature.
Q: Is the inner pot dishwasher safe?
A: To ensure the longest possible life for the pot, we recommend hand washing it with warm, soapy water after each use.
Q: Does it come with a lid?
A: Yes, it includes a handy hinged stainless steel lid with a notch to accommodate a ladle, making serving simple and hygienic.
Q: What do the labels in the included pack say?
A: The magnetic label pack includes a variety of common options like Soup, Chilli, Curry, Beans, and Mulled Wine, so you can clearly inform your customers.
Q: Does it require any special installation?
A: Absolutely not. It comes fitted with a standard UK 13-amp plug, so you can just plug it into any standard socket and get started.
