Hi, I am Ludwig Engler from Lara Copper
Our pans are 2.5 mm thick. Fry, saute, crepe pan 2.0mm + 0.5 mm tin, sauce pan casserole 1.6 mm + 0.9 mm copper. We choose this combination for long live before re-tinning.
The tin lining melts at 450 F. The customer was given specific instruction on how to cook with tin lined copper cookware. For the past 300 years people have cooked, and still do, in tin lined copper cookware without any problem.
I remember the customer. He rung me and was hysterical, I asked him to return the pan, I was going to refurbish the pan and return it to him free of charge. He did not want that. He bought 2 pans, the unused one he was going to return for a refund. I have not heard of him any further, until I read the above comments.
We have thousands of customers all over the world, once in a while on of them is doing the wrong thing and tries to blame us for his / hers mistake.
