STEAM TRAP
To remove line condensate that forms inside the steam jacket, each kettle should be equipped with a steam trap in the line of the kettle outlet to the drain. A good steam trap at startup releases air and wet steam into the drain line for a few minutes, then holds the steam jacket. During cooking, the trap periodically releases accumulated condensate. If the kettle's cooking performance becomes inadequate after long use, replacement of the steam trap with a new one may restore kettle operation to peak efficiency.
