Direct-Steam • 2/3 Jacket • 304/316 Stainless Steel • NSF

Designed for smaller batch production, the Crown DC-6 brings the speed and efficiency of direct steam to any worktop. From glossy sauces to hearty soups, its 2/3-jacketed hemispheric bowl delivers rapid, even heat transfer while the smooth forward tilt makes precise portioning and complete emptying effortless.
