Maestro 5-ply from BEKA - For the ambitious amateur chef
In addition to classic stainless steel cookware, the diverse BEKA Maestro collection also offers models with high-quality 5-layer technology (5-ply). The 5-ply models inspire both ambitious amateur chefs and professionals. Thanks to the advanced 5-ply technology, the products impress with their excellent heat distribution, high energy efficiency and fast response to temperature changes.

🥘 What does "5-ply" cookware mean?
"5-ply" stands for a structure of five firmly bonded metal layers - across the entire wall and base surface:
- Exterior: Induction-suitable stainless steel
- Inside: 18/10 stainless steel - tasteless and easy to clean
- Core: Three layers of aluminum - ensure optimum heat conduction

This distributes the heat quickly and evenly right up to the edge - ideal for precise searing, gentle simmering and energy-saving cooking.
Good to know: The aluminum is completely encased in stainless steel and has no contact with food. This makes this cookware collection ideal for anyone who wants to avoid aluminum in direct contact with food, but still wants to benefit from its excellent heat conductivity.

📏 Which size is right for you?
Which pan or casserole is right for you depends on your cooking style and the number of people. An important advantage of the Maestro 5-ply pans: Thanks to their straight, almost vertical walls, the frying surface is significantly larger than that of pans with sloping edges. Depending on the diameter, this results in up to 20 % more usable surface area - ideal if you want to cook several pieces of meat at the same time or need space when frying.
