Sertodo Copper Stock Pot

Hot-tinning is the traditional method for lining copper cookware because it offers a superior, naturally non-stick surface that is entirely non-reactive. While stainless steel is more durable, tin provides better heat conductivity and is easier to repair or re-tin over time, ensuring the pot lasts for generations.

No, this pot is made from solid copper, which is not magnetic and therefore will not work on induction surfaces. It is designed for use on gas, electric, and ceramic cooktops.

This pot is not dishwasher safe and requires hand washing with warm water and mild soap. To maintain the exterior's shine, you may occasionally need a copper polish, though many owners prefer the natural patina that develops over time.

While the heavy-gauge copper adds significant weight compared to aluminum or thin stainless steel, the ergonomic, stay-cool handles are specifically designed to provide a secure, comfortable grip. It is substantial, but the weight is a direct result of the superior heat retention and durability.

With proper care—such as using wooden or silicone utensils and avoiding abrasive scrubbers—the tin lining will last for many years. If it eventually wears down, the pot can be professionally re-tinned, which is a standard service for high-quality copper cookware.
