Hi Lindsey
Again, not a question. A few months ago I asked about the gauge of aluminium pans and you responded by saying it can be confusing because one manufacturer uses one sort of gauge and another a different one. You did comment though that a base of about 6 mm is a good indicator to use.
About a month ago I bought an aluminium frying pan, seasoned it as you suggested and it's great. It's so easy to clean in hot soapy water if something sticks. My only problem is that he handle is 26cm long and the pan won't fit in the oven. I'm so keen on them that I'll probably buy another one when it needs replacing.
So thank you once again for your guidance.
Love
Wendy xx

Hi Wendy,
Our Little Gem Frying Pan has an 18cm handle but I expect it’s a smaller frying pan than the one you have. It’s the little gem 'sauce' pan that has a 6mm base. The base of the omelette pan is heavy gauge but not as thick as the saucepan.
Delia has some heavy gauge aluminium pans that are at least 20 years old so you my have to wait some time before you need to replace your pan!
Best wishes
