Stock pots get bought twice when you size by “how many seats” instead of peak liters — or when you confuse a wok range with a long-hold soup kettle. This guide matches removable pot vs built-in vs tilting, liters / φ, and kW · 380V on the CHINENG catalog — not a SKU-by-SKU tech sheet.

1. Quick Answer: Which Stock Pot / Soup Kettle?

A noodle shop needs a large pot for overnight bone stock; a canteen needs fast pour-off and easy clean; a hotel kitchen often wants tilt discharge instead of ladle scooping. Three different jobs — match pot style, volume, and how you empty the kettle.

Direct answer:

• Mid restaurant, swap pots / clean often, compact footprint → Low Soup Stove (removable pot) φ430 · 8 / 12 / 15 kW (single or double eye) — from about $266

• Central kitchen / high fixed volume, φ600–1000 built-in pot → Built-in Soup Stove ~141–471 L · 12–30 kW — from about $982

• Pour large stock / sauce safely, less hand ladling → Tilting Soup Stove φ700–1200 · 151–394 L · 15–30 kW — from about $1,346

• Only à-la-minute stir-fry → not this guide; see the Commercial Electromagnetic Wok Stove Buying Guide

Listed prices are machine only (exclude shipping, on-site service, and tax). Almost every catalog row on these pages lists 380V — confirm site power before you order.

2. Who This Equipment Is For

A fit if you are:

• Noodle / pho / ramen / broth shops that simmer stock daily

• Canteens, hotels, and central kitchens with large base sauce or soup volume

• Chinese / Asian restaurants that need a stock pot beside the wok line

• Sites replacing gas stock burners and wanting tighter heat control and cleaner hold

Skip these lines if: you only run small clay pots / multi-head portion cookers → see Vertical Electromagnetic Stew Stove (4–6 burners); or you only need flash stir-fry → high-power electromagnetic wok.

3. Five Mistakes When Buying a Stock Pot / Soup Kettle

1. Buying by seat count. A 30-seat noodle shop may need 150+ L of stock on hand; an 80-seat rice shop that only holds sauce may only need φ430. Count liters ready at peak and how many pots run at once.

2. Confusing wok ranges with soup kettles. Woks optimize pan recovery; soup stoves optimize long hold and large volume. They are different catalog families.

3. Ignoring 380V. Removable 8–15 kW and built-in / tilting 12–30 kW rows almost all list 380V. Without stable three-phase, do not lock large SKUs.

4. Choosing built-in when you swap pots all day. Removable pots clean and change easily; built-in and tilting suit fixed high volume.

5. Forgetting pour path and wet floors. Tilting QBT needs clear space in front when it tips; large pots need floor drains and a safe scoop / pour SOP.

4. Size by Liters at Peak — Not by Seats

1. Estimate liters of stock / sauce that must be ready in the busiest hour (not daily average)

2. Add 20–30% buffer for top-ups, hold loss, and mid-shift refill

3. Decide whether you need 1 or 2 eyes at once (e.g. bones vs clear stock in separate pots)

4. Pick style: removable (flexible) / built-in (fixed large volume) / tilting (fast pour, less ladling)

5. Match kW and measure frame + aisle before ordering

Worked example: Noodle shop ~80 bowls/hour at peak, holding ~120 L stock + one bone pot → double-eye CRC-SBT430 or one 15 kW eye plus a spare pot; if you keep >200 L fixed every day, step up to FB001 or QBT800+.

5. Removable-Pot Low Soup Stove (CN-RC-HC-TL430)

The Low Soup Stove page focuses on φ430, 8 / 12 / 15 kW, single or double eye, across series (CN-DTL-8023, CRC-BT430 / SBT430, CN-8001-B304…).

Strength of removable pots: lift off to clean, swap pots by recipe, smaller footprint than large built-ins. Limit: φ430 does not replace a 200–400 L FB001 / QBT.

Product-page starting price from about $266 (machine; excludes shipping / install / tax).

6. Built-in Soup Stove (CN-YS-YT-FB001)

The Built-in Soup Stove page lists two spec groups by bucket depth:

Choose built-in when stock / base sauce is a fixed high daily volume and you do not need to remove the pot often. Confirm φ and bucket depth on quote — same φ band, different liters between the two groups.

Product-page starting price from about $982 (machine; excludes shipping / install / tax).

7. Tilting Soup Stove (CN-CRC-QBT)

Use the Tilting Soup Stove when you need to pour stock / sauce into holding pans or the service line — less hand ladling at 150–400 L.

Leave clear space in front for the tilt arc; non-slip flooring and drainage are required in the install survey.

Product-page starting price from about $1,346 (machine; excludes shipping / install / tax).

8. 380V, Install, and vs Wok Ranges

• Power: catalog rows above almost all list 380V. Double-eye 15 kW×2 = 30 kW — plan dedicated circuits.

• Vs wok ranges: à-la-minute stir-fry → electromagnetic wok guide; stock / base soup → this guide. Many kitchens need both.

• Fume: simmering throws less grease splash than wok frying but still makes heat and odor — size the hood to the layout; heavy frying also see the fume purifier buying guide.

• Floor: scoop / tilt zones need drainage and non-slip surfaces.

• Induction-ready pots: on removable lines, use cookware suited for induction per factory guidance.

9. Cookline Flow: Prep → Simmer → Storage

10. Decision Tree

• Mid shop, swap pots / clean often → removable φ430 (1 eye; 2 eyes if bones + stock split)

• ~140–470 L fixed daily, no tilt needed → built-in FB001 (pick 500 or 600 mm depth)

• Need fast pour, less ladling → QBT700–QBT1200 by liters

• Only small multi-head clay pots → vertical stew stove, not QBT / FB001

• Only stir-fry → electromagnetic wok guide

• No stable 380V yet → fix power before locking 12–30 kW

11. Application Examples

• Small noodle / broth shop (~40–60 seats): one eye CRC-BT430-12Y or CN-DTL-8023-12; long weekends may need double-eye SBT430 (bones / stock split).

• Busy ramen / noodle counter: peak needs >150 L ready → step up to FB001 φ800+ or QBT800 if you pour into a holding pan.

• Canteen 500–800 covers: built-in ~300–470 L or QBT1000 / QBT1200; add a cold workbench for toppings.

• Hotel kitchen: QBT for banquet stock / sauce + removable φ430 for small shifts; keep the wok line separate per the wok buying guide.

• Chinese restaurant: removable or FB001 for stock + wok / XCDC for à la minute — do not force one machine to do both jobs.

12. Frequently Asked Questions

12.1 Removable pot vs built-in — what is the difference?

Removable (TL430): lift the pot, smaller footprint, easy cleaning. Built-in (FB001): pot fixed to the frame, larger catalog volume (up to ~471 L), suited to fixed high throughput.

12.2 When do I need a tilting soup stove?

When you regularly pour 150 L+ and want less ladling / burn risk. If you only hold and scoop small ladles at the counter, removable or built-in may be enough.

12.3 Can a soup kettle replace an electromagnetic wok?

No. Long simmer and flash stir-fry are different jobs. See the wok buying guide for the à-la-minute line.

12.4 Will these run on 220V?

Catalog rows in this guide list 380V. Do not assume a field conversion — confirm voltage version on the factory quote.

12.5 How much do they cost?

Listed starting prices are about $266 (removable), $982 (built-in), and $1,346 (tilting) — machine only; shipping, install, and tax are extra. Larger φ / kW are quoted by model.

12.6 Can a 4–6 burner vertical stew stove replace a stock pot?

Not the same job. The vertical stew stove serves many small pots (e.g. clay pots); industrial stock uses TL430 / FB001 / QBT.
