12 Quart Aluminum Colander

This 12-quart aluminum colander features traditional tapered sides for efficient draining and versatile kitchen use. Made from durable aluminum, it should be hand washed, as aluminum products are not dishwasher safe. Caution: allow the colander to cool completely before cleaning. Wash with warm water, mild soap, and a soft, non-abrasive sponge, then immediately dry thoroughly with a cloth or paper towel to prevent limescale buildup. For stubborn, cooked-on food residue, boil the colander in water with a splash of vinegar for 4–5 minutes to loosen debris, then wash, rinse, and dry as usual. Proper care will help maintain the colander’s appearance, functionality, and long-lasting performance.
