Product Information
Full details
The Karaca Elite Stock Pot & Lid is an essential kitchen tool designed for home cooks who prioritize durability and heat efficiency in their daily meal preparation. Crafted from high-grade 18/10 stainless steel, this 14cm pot is perfect for creating small-batch sauces, reheating soups, or boiling sides, offering a safe, non-reactive surface. While its compact size is a major advantage for small tasks, users should note that its small 14cm diameter may be limiting for family-style cooking or large meal prep.

FAQs
Is this pot dishwasher safe?
Yes, the Karaca Elite Stock Pot is dishwasher safe for added convenience.
Can I use this on an induction stove?
Yes, this pot is fully compatible with induction, gas, electric, and ceramic hobs.
What does 18/10 stainless steel mean?
It refers to the composition of the steel (18% chromium and 10% nickel), which provides superior resistance to rust and a high-quality, polished finish.
Does the lid come with the pot?
Yes, the product includes a matching lid designed to seal in heat and moisture.
Are the handles oven safe?
While the handles are made of metal, they are designed for stovetop use. We recommend using oven mitts as they may become hot during cooking.
Troubleshooting
Discoloration or rainbow-like stains inside the pot
This is often caused by minerals in water or overheating; remove stains by wiping with a soft cloth dipped in white vinegar or lemon juice.
Food sticking to the bottom during cooking
Reduce the heat setting; stainless steel conducts heat efficiently, and medium to low heat is often sufficient to prevent sticking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before using the pot for the first time, wash it thoroughly with warm, soapy water to remove any manufacturing residue. The Karaca Elite is designed for universal compatibility; ensure the pot is centered on your hob's element to maximize energy efficiency. To maintain the polished finish, avoid using abrasive scrubbers or steel wool, which can scratch the stainless steel. While the product is dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to preserve the exterior shine over the long term. If stuck-on food occurs, soak the pot in warm water for a few minutes before wiping it clean. Always ensure the pot is completely dry before storing it in a cabinet.
