The Cleveland KGT-12-TGB is a versatile and efficient 12-gallon (45 L) kettle that enables you to produce consistent, high-volume batches of soups, sauces, stocks, and more. Featuring a 2/3 steam jacket and gearbox tilt, this self-contained unit delivers fast heat-up and precise temperature control, all while maintaining splash-proof durability. Crafted from 316 stainless steel, the KGT-12-TGB is designed to maximize productivity without requiring a remote boiler connection or taking up valuable floor space.

Why Choose the KGT-12-TGB:

• The powerful 53,000 BTU gas-fired system quickly reaches the set temperature and recovers fast between batches.
• The solid-state thermostat maintains the temperature within ±1 °C, providing perfect simmering control from 145 – 260 °F (63 – 127 °C).
• The IPX6 splash-proof control panel with LED heat-cycle and low-water indicators is designed to withstand the demands of a busy kitchen environment.
• The manual gearbox tilt with a self-locking marine-style latch prevents accidental dumping and allows for one-handed pouring.
• The anti-drip pouring lip and reinforced rolled rim help to keep the countertops clean and resist abuse.
• The 316 series stainless steel liner and exterior resist corrosion from acidic or salty recipes, making it ideal for scratch cooking.
