Shop Soap Production: Mixing
To heat, mix and pour soap in one vessel, WaxMelters builds PRIMO waterless heated pot tippers: the 15-gallon ($2,895, 800 W), 25-gallon ($3,495, 800 W) and 40-gallon class ($6,495, 1,200 W). A bracketed mixer adds heat-mix-pour batch processing for $995, and each tilting kettle usually ships within 3 to 5 days.
Batch-processing equipment for heating, mixing, ingredient incorporation and controlled discharge of soap formulations and compatible production materials.
Choose Around the Batch Process
Heat & Mix
Combine thermal processing with ingredient incorporation in one vessel.
Mixing Requirement
Mixer style and power depend on viscosity, batch volume and formulation.
Discharge Method
Choose valve discharge, transfer equipment or tilting according to workflow.
PRIMO Heated Pot Tipper Advantage
Heat, Mix & Pour Without Transferring to Another Vessel
Most Pot Tippers are designed primarily to mix and pour. PRIMO adds digitally controlled waterless heating to the tilting production vessel itself.
Heat + Pour
Heat oils, fats, butters or compatible soap ingredients in the same vessel used for controlled tilting discharge.
Add Mixing
Configure the heated Pot Tipper with agitation to heat, mix and pour without transferring the batch between separate machines.
Waterless PRIMO Heating
Digital temperature control with permanent waterless heating: no Water Jacket to Maintain and no routine replacement heaters under normal intended operation.
See It in Action
The PRIMO heated pot tipper heats, mixes and pours soap in one stainless steel tilting kettle, so one person can pour a full batch into molds with a controlled tilt. Watch on YouTube

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a heated pot tipper?
A heated pot tipper is a tilting kettle with its own heating. PRIMO pot tippers add digitally controlled waterless heating to the tilting vessel, so oils, butters and soap batches can be heated, mixed and poured into molds from the same kettle without transferring to another tank.
Which pot tipper size should I choose?
Choose by working batch volume. The 15-gallon class (60 qt / 57 L) suits small-batch soap makers, the 25-gallon class (about 26 gal physical vessel) suits growing production, and the 40-gallon class (164 qt / 155 L nominal) suits larger batches.
Can the tilting kettle mix as well as heat?
Yes. Add the bracketed mixer ($995) for heat-mix-pour batch processing. Without the mixer, the kettle is configured for heat-and-pour batch processing.
Why choose WaxMelters for a heated tilting kettle?
WaxMelters is the industry leader and the leading USA manufacturer of melting, heating and filling equipment since 1999, and builds every PRIMO system in Ronkonkoma, New York. Best performance, energy efficient: waterless PRIMO heating melts 2 to 3X faster using half the electricity.

Upgrades and options (such as X-Treme high temperature, longer hoses and other add-ons) usually ship within 7 days.
Need to Heat, Mix and Pour in the Same Vessel?
Soap-production workflows often heat oils or ingredients in
one tank, transfer them to a separate Pot Tipper, mix the batch and then
pour from the Tipper.
PRIMO Heated Pot Tippers combine controlled heating and tilting
discharge in the same production vessel, with mixing available
for a complete Heat + Mix + Pour system.
The PRIMO heating system is waterless, digitally controlled and permanently integrated: no jacket water to fill or maintain and no routine replacement heaters under normal intended operation.
