Cromargan®
WMF has been using the tried and tested Cromargan® stainless steel alloy for cookware, cutlery and kitchen gadgets for nearly 100 years. The material is corrosion-free, acid-resistant and remains shiny for a very long time. Neutral taste and scratch-resistant, the material still looks beautiful and impressive even after being cleaned in the dishwasher.
Timer
A timer integrated into the cooker lid ensures that the food can be cooked precisely. It displays the minutes for the cooking time, and the timer continues to function even after being removed. The signal is both visual and acoustic, so you can't fail to notice it. The timer is only available on certain models and cooker lids, such as for example on the lid handle in the Perfect Ultra collection.
Two cooking settings
A large cooking indicator displays the two possible cooking settings. The first ring appears when the cooking temperature reaches approx. 110°C, and the second at 119°C. There is a recess on the base that enables you to detect the relevant cooking setting early on. Some models have a yellow ring that displays the residual pressure.
TransTherm universal base
The patented TransTherm universal base is made from an aluminium core that is encapsulated in chrome steel. On the one hand, this special construction provides for excellent heat retention and energy-savings when cooking and roasting, while on the other hand the magnetic chrome steel in the base of the pressure cooker makes it suitable for induction hobs too. The base is also extremely stable and does not warp even when the temperature is extremely hot.
