Do you need to fill both sides of a double crock pot?

Yes. Water is fine. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the minimum level necessary.

Crock pots are made of a ceramic material, which does not tolerate expansion. If one side is heated with food, it will be cooler than the other side which is heated empty. Even if you don't crack the pot in one use, you have created stress that can crack the glazing.

If you have run the pot with only one side filled, look for paler marks - especially in the area where the temperature would have been different (between the halves) and at bends. The cracks might start out too small to see as cracks, but the color change reveals them.

If you see such markings, do not use the pot again without liners. Once water or food enters the cracks, the problem will progress until the pot is unusable.
