Engineered for continual use, it balances a compact footprint with a cooking surface sized to handle frequent sandwich production.
#@@# Top Plate#@#
Smooth cast iron construction on the top plate transfers heat evenly across the product surface, reducing cold spots that cause inconsistent toasting. Operators gain uniform browning and predictable cook times when they press multiple items consecutively.
#@@# Bottom Plate#@#
Smooth cast iron on the bottom plate provides a stable base for contact cooking and resists warping under repeated cycles. Kitchens experience less product waste because sandwiches exit with consistent texture and temperature.
#@@# Temperature Control#@#
Manual temperature controls scale to 570°F, enabling rapid transition between low heat for delicate melts and high heat for searing applications. Chefs adjust set points instantly to match menu demands without automated complexity.
#@@# Timer Function#@#
Built-in timer counts down cook intervals to standardize results across staff and shifts, minimizing operator guesswork. Managers reduce training time and improve portion consistency by using a repeatable timing routine.
#@@# Construction Quality#@#
Stainless steel exterior and cast iron plates create a durable package that withstands heavy use and frequent cleaning cycles. Facilities reduce repair frequency and protect uptime through materials chosen for commercial kitchens.
#@@# Electrical Specification#@#
Designed for 120v operation with a 15 Amp draw and a NEMA 5-15P plug, this unit integrates easily into standard commercial circuits. Purchasing teams plan installations without requiring specialized wiring or phase conversion.
