A pot for generations. Almost indestructible, if you know how to handle it. No other material conducts heat so quickly, can be regulated with pinpoint accuracy on the stove and has a sterilizing effect.
Germany's only copper manufacturer also makes use of all these properties. It has pots made by hand from this raw material.
In the process, it works together with various specialists. Martin Mittermann is one of them. He presses the pot bodies on a spinning lathe just as he did 100 years ago. Today it's the turn of 50 jam pots. The master metal spinner begins by cutting the two-millimeter-thick copper sheet into slices. From the so-called round blank, he presses a chipless and seamless blank in just a few minutes.
The production of the dishes, like the cooking in them, is based on experience and a feeling for copper. Amateur cooks swear by it because the sweet spread - made in it - probably tastes fruitier, retains its color and gels faster than in stainless steel, for example.
