Kann eine Keramikschüssel in die Fritteuse? Antwort für Sie

With the increasing popularity of small kitchen appliances, air fryers, as a convenient, low-oil, and healthy cooking tool, are entering the daily lives of more and more families, restaurants, and even commercial kitchens. In the process of consumers frequently exploring “what else can air fryers do”, a highly practical question has gradually emerged: Can ceramic bowls be put into air fryers?

As a professional ceramic bowl manufacturer, Jinhua-Keramik has received similar inquiries from customers in the past few years. Whether it is a brand, an e-commerce platform or an offline retail buyer, everyone is curious about the safety and applicability of ceramic utensils in high-temperature kitchen equipment. This article will systematically explain whether ceramic bowls can be put into air fryers from a professional perspective, combined with our years of manufacturing and use experience, and the key matters that should be paid attention to during use.

Can Ceramic Bowls Be Put Into Air Fryers?

Answer: With certain conditions, most high-fire temperature ceramic bowls can be used in air fryers safely.

The working principle of air fryer is to create a high-speed hot air circulation by internal heat source and fan system, thus acquiring the purpose of baking, heating, dehydration, etc. Its normal operating temperature range is typically 160°C-200°C, and some models are even up to over 220°C. In spite of the large temperature range, high-quality ceramic bowls (especially products that are fired in high temperature over 1200°C) will typically be stable under this temperature range without problem such as bursting, deforming, or release of toxic substance.

But not every ceramic bowl is safe for air fryer use. The type of material, design process, and surface decoration for ceramics can impact directly on their heat resistance and safety.

Which Ceramic Bowls Can Be Safely Used In Air Fryers?

To determine whether ceramic bowls can be used in air fryers, it is necessary to analyze from the following aspects:

Whether the material is high-temperature fired ceramics

High-temperature firing ceramics such as reinforced porcelain, bone china, stoneware, etc., are usually fired at higher temperatures over 1200°C with good density and high resistance to thermal shock. Unlike stoneware or low-temperature pottery, such ceramic product can withstand the circulating hot air inside the air fryer and is not likely to explode due to thermal stress.

Is it explicitly marked “can be used in the oven/microwave oven”

The majority of new ceramics will be labeled on the bottom or exterior package with their range of use, i.e., “oven safe”, “microwave safe”, etc. Since the item is safe to use in a microwave or an oven, it is basically safe to use in the air fryer.

Is there no metal decoration or decals

Certain ceramic products will add gold borders, silver trim or surface electroplating ornaments for beauty, yet these metal materials may cause local hot spots, arcing, and even damage the internal structure of the fryer under the heat and high temperature air. It is therefore recommended to use plain porcelain or ceramic bowls with a smooth glaze.

Is the surface intact and crack-free

Even slight cracks can expand significantly in a high-temperature circulation system such as an air fryer, causing the ceramic to crack or break. A careful check of the surface and bottom of the ceramic before use must be maintained for no hidden cracks and structural collapse.

Which Ceramic Bowls Are Not Recommended To Be Put Into Air Fryers?

In actual use, some ceramic bowls are not suitable for air fryers. Mainly including:

• Pottery or craft pottery fired at low temperature: This type of product is mostly used for decoration, with loose structure, poor thermal shock resistance, and easy to crack under high temperature conditions.
• Ceramic bowls with metal edges or electroplating decoration: It is easy to conduct heat unevenly or generate electric sparks in the air fryer.
• Cracked and bumped ceramic utensils: Even if they are high-temperature porcelain, they are no longer safe if the structure is damaged, especially after heating, they are more likely to crack.
• Ceramic products with unknown scope of application and unknown sources: Safety cannot be guaranteed, and it is not recommended to use them in high-temperature equipment.

Precautions for Using Ceramic Bowls In Air Fryers

In order to ensure safety and the service life of ceramic bowls, whether you are a home user or a purchaser, it is recommended to pay attention to the following details in actual use:

Do not put cold ceramics directly into the preheated air fryer

Sudden changes in temperature will cause ceramics to crack. It is recommended to heat the ceramic bowl with the air fryer or use it at room temperature.

Avoid direct contact between the bowl and the heating element

Place the ceramic bowl in the center of the frying basket and ensure that the bottom is stable to avoid damage caused by shaking.

Do not seal the container

If you put a lid on the ceramic bowl, you must ensure that it is well ventilated to prevent thermal expansion pressure from causing rupture.

Let it cool naturally before cleaning

The ceramic bowl just taken out of the fryer is at a high temperature. It is not advisable to rinse it with cold water immediately to prevent blasting or glaze cracking.
