No, the Hamoki BM-4 is specifically designed as a wet heat bain marie. Using it without water can damage the heating element and cause uneven heat distribution.
The unit includes a single 4-litre round pot.
No, it is designed for plug-and-play use with a standard 13 amp electrical connection.
Use the front-mounted drain tap to release water safely into a container or floor drain.
The thermostat allows for adjustment between 30°C and 85°C.
The removable pot is generally dishwasher safe, but the main stainless steel housing must be wiped down manually as it contains electrical components.
Check that the unit is plugged in correctly and the power switch is in the 'on' position. Verify the thermostat dial is set to the desired temperature range.
Ensure the lid is kept on the container when not in use. Check that the unit is not positioned near a draft or air conditioning vent.
The overheat protection may have triggered. Allow the unit to cool down completely, check the water level, and refill if necessary before restarting.
Place the unit on a flat, heat-resistant surface using the provided anti-slip feet. Ensure the drain tap is closed before filling the tank with water to the marked maximum level. Plug the unit into a standard 13 amp power socket and adjust the dial to the required heat setting. For care, always allow the unit to cool completely before draining the water using the front tap. Wipe the stainless steel exterior with a soft cloth and a food-safe detergent; avoid abrasive scrubbers that may scratch the finish. Check the rubber feet periodically to ensure the unit remains level and stable.
