The double boiler insert is an indispensable tool for toiletry making. Most people don’t have a double boiler at home. Heating oils in cookware that sits directly on top of the heat source can overheat and destroy the beneficial properties of delicate oils and other ingredients. Microwaving can also overheat your ingredients.
The advantage of using a double boiler or our double boiler insert is that it allows for more gentle heating of your ingredients. Double boilers typically are comprised of two stacking pots. Water is added to the bottom pot (the pot that sits directly on top of the heat source). Oils and your other ingredients are added to the top pot. The top pot rests slightly inside the bottom pot. The water in the bottom pot gently heats the ingredients inside the top pot. Double boilers, however, can be expensive and cumbersome to use and store.
Our double boiler insert is an excellent, affordable alternative. This 18/10 stainless steel double boiler insert fits most household pots. The insert holds 8 cups with adeqquate room to stir. It can hold up to 10 cups all the way to the top of the insert. It is the perfect solution to safely melt waxes, butters and solid oils without worrying about overheating.
