An enamelled cast iron cauldron on three legs with a domed lid and steel lifting handle, 6 or 8 L, in red or grey, for stews over a campfire.
- Diameter
- 23 cm (9.1″) for the 6 L pot; 26 cm (10.2″) for the 8 L pot
- Capacity
- About 6 L or 8 L
- Material
- Enamelled cast iron; stainless steel lifting handle
Choosing the right size
Diameters are measured across the top rim; the flat base is usually 3 to 5 cm (1–2″) smaller. Match the base to your hob ring or zone. On an induction hob, check that induction is listed under Hob types: a magnet sticks firmly to a base that works on induction.
Stands in the fire or hangs above it
- Three cast legs: the pot stands over coals without a separate stand.
- Steel lifting handle: a stainless steel bail handle for carrying it or hanging it from a tripod.
- Domed lid: a cast lid with a loop grip holds steam and heat in while the stew simmers.
- Enamelled inside and out: glossy red or grey outside, milky white enamel inside.
The whole pot, the handle and the lid get very hot: use heat-proof gloves and set it down only on a heat-resistant surface. Warm it up gradually and never heat it empty. Use wooden or silicone utensils to protect the enamel. The temperature limit and packed weights are supplier-stated.

Care and cleaning
Before the first use, wash the cauldron in warm water, dry it inside and out, and wipe a thin film of vegetable oil round the rim to keep rust away. Let it cool before cleaning and never quench it with cold water. Soak stuck food in warm water and clean with a soft sponge, never steel wool. The white enamel inside may yellow slightly over time, which is normal; chipped enamel cannot be repaired, so avoid knocks in use and in storage.
