I checked out that French/german site and their ss 38.5L pot is not compatible with a gas burner. Which is a shame as they were all set to give me a special price including shipping of 75 yoyos.

Ill keep looking[/quote:2xy5371a]

Hmm, I wonder what "not compatible" means.

After all, remember at school science class the demo of how you could boil water in a piece of paper folded up to make a tray?. The water wets the paper so it can't burn !! Just don't let it boil dry

Thin stainless steel is a little bit more flame resistant than paper!!

You can always stand it on a heat diffuser (like we did with the 6" square gauze on the bunsen burner)

A square of ss mesh or an off cut of steel or alumininium plate would do it

Cheers
