Al

MATERIAL: EXTREMELY LIGHT AND VERY MALLEABLE. THESE FEATURES MEAN IT IS NOT VERY RESISTANT TO KNOCKS AS IT DEFORMS VERY EASILY. IT IS A POROUS MATERIAL THAT CAN MAKE CLEANING DIFFICULT.

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY: AFTER COPPER, ALUMINIUM IS THE MATERIAL WITH THE HIGHEST HEAT CONDUCTIVITY USED FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF COOKWARE. THIS MEANS WE CAN GET A VERY UNIFORM HEAT DISTRIBUTION THROUGHOUT THE RECEPTACLE AND MAKES IT THE IDEAL MATERIAL FOR ENERGY SAVING.

USE: IDEAL FOR GAS OR ELECTRIC KITCHEN. NOT APPROVED FOR INDUCTION UNLESS IT HAS AN IRON BASE SOLDERED TO THE EXTERNAL PART OF THE BOTTOM. IT CAN BE USED IN THE OVEN WITHOUT PROBLEMS.

MAINTENANCE AND HYGIENE: BEING A POROUS MATERIAL MEANS THAT CLEANING IS MORE COMPLICATED BECAUSE, IF IT IS NOT DONE CORRECTLY, BACTERIA MAY REMAIN IN THE PORES AND CONTAMINATE THE FOOD.
