What is a milk pot? A milk pot is a small pot with a handle and a deep bottom. It is a common cooking pot in the kitchen for heating milk. The milk pot has many uses, especially suitable for boiling milk, soup, sugar water, etc., and the portion is relatively small, so there is no need to worry about wasting food.
When buying a milk pot, we need to pay attention to the brand and material, because when you want to drink healthy hot milk, the pot used to heat the milk should also be safe and healthy.

Why Do We Need a Milk Pot?
Why do we need a milk pot? From the name, a milk pot is undoubtedly the best tool for boiling milk. This is true. Most milk pots on the market now have specially designed bottoms that can heat milk evenly and efficiently, and generally do not burn the bottom. The bottoms of these milk pots are usually made of triply stainless steel composite materials, that is, SS304+aluminum+SS430. The composite bottom design makes its thermal conductivity much higher than that of ordinary pots, and the heating uniformity is also beyond doubt.
In addition, milk pots are usually designed with pouring spouts, allowing users to easily pour out milk without causing overflow or dirtying the tabletop, so milk pots are undoubtedly the best tool for heating milk! So another question is whether milk pots can only be used for cooking milk?
Is A Milk Pot Only For Milk?
Of course not. The milk pot, with its unique narrow bottom and high sides, is not only suitable for heating milk, but also for other kitchen tasks. For example, they can be used to make sauces, soups, milk tea, heat and melt chocolate, butter, etc. The narrow bottom and high sides of the pot make it very suitable for heating and melting small amounts of food that need to be heated over low heat. The milk pot is not only suitable for these tasks but also for making fried foods. The unique design of the milk pot can greatly save the use of cooking oil, but it will not affect the production effect.
Which Material Of Milk Pot Is Safe
Choosing healthy and environmentally friendly cookware is important. So make sure the various tools you choose for your kitchen are healthy. There are many materials used to make cookware and kitchen utensils on the market, but many of them will affect your health. So before buying, we need to pay close attention to the type and quality of the materials. Milk pots made of stainless steel are very healthy and safe cookware. However, stainless steel is also divided into many grades. Please make sure to choose high-quality food-grade stainless steel. Usually, high-quality stainless steel will be marked as 304 or 316. Milk pots made of low-quality stainless steel may contain harmful chemicals that will seep into the milk during heating. In addition, pots with non-stick coatings are also very dangerous for heating milk, because high temperatures will cause the non-stick coating to fall off and release harmful chemicals into the milk.
How To Clean Burnt Milk Pot
Use soft tools to clean the milk pot to avoid abrasion of the inner wall of the milk pot. Soak it in warm water for a while before cleaning, or use an appropriate amount of vinegar to remove milk stains.
Several ways to clean a burnt milk pot
Tomatoes: The first way to clean a burnt milk pot is to boil tomatoes. Pick a few not-so-good tomatoes and put them in the pot to boil. Slowly, the burnt bottom of the pot will fall off, and then simply wash it.
White vinegar or tea leaves: The second way to clean a burnt milk pot is to use white vinegar or tea leaves. Pour half a bowl of white vinegar (or some tea leaves) into the burnt pot, add water and boil for about three or four minutes. After boiling, let the pot stand for about five minutes, or wait for the water to cool down. At this time, you will find that the burnt part falls off from the pot in one piece, and finally just wash it.
Beer + liquor: The third way to clean the burnt milk pot is to use beer and liquor. Pour a little liquor and beer into the pot with a small amount of water, mix them in a ratio of 1:1:0.5, cover the pot, and leave it for about 5 minutes. It is easy to clean it by brushing.
Salt: The fourth way is to use salt. Put the pot on the stove and dry burn it with a low fire for a while. When the pot smokes, sprinkle some salt on it, shake it for one minute, turn off the fire, and then wipe it with a cleaning ball. It can be cleaned very cleanly without leaving any bottom or burnt smell.
