The N11 is a 24-litre gas-fired tea urn built for high-volume beverage service in commercial catering operations. It brews and maintains Turkish-style tea or hot water at service temperature for cafes, outdoor events, and restaurant breakfast service. Constructed from 304-grade stainless steel with CE certification for commercial kitchen use.
Commercial Application
High-turnover catering sites require continuous hot beverage supply without electric infrastructure dependency. Gas-fired operation delivers faster heat recovery than electric urns and maintains brewing temperature during sustained draw-off cycles. The 24L capacity serves approximately 100-120 small tea glasses before refill.
Operators fill the lower pot for brewing and the upper pot for dilution water. The gas burner maintains both chambers at optimal serving temperature throughout service periods. Draw-off occurs via the front-mounted tap without interrupting the heating cycle.
Key Operational Advantages
- 24-litre total capacity across dual-chamber brewing system
- Gas-fired heating delivers 8-12 minute boil time from cold start
- 304 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in humid service environments
- CE certification covers pressure vessel and gas safety requirements for UK and EU commercial use
- Independent gas control allows temperature adjustment during extended service periods
- Front tap position permits one-handed dispensing during high-volume service

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the N11 construction?
A: The N11 is fabricated from 304-grade stainless steel across all wetted surfaces. This alloy provides adequate corrosion resistance for tannin exposure and frequent washing.
Q: What gas supply does the N11 require for operation?
A: The unit operates on standard LPG (propane or butane) via cylinder connection. Gas consumption averages 0.3 kg/hour at sustained brewing temperature. Conversion fittings for regional cylinder standards are available on request.
Q: Can the N11 be used indoors in commercial kitchens?
A: Indoor use requires adequate ventilation and compliance with local gas appliance regulations. The CE certification covers the appliance but does not supersede building ventilation codes.
Q: How long does the N11 take to reach brewing temperature from cold?
A: Expect 8-12 minutes to reach rolling boil from ambient start with full 24L load. Heat recovery time after partial draw-off is 3-5 minutes depending on remaining volume.
Q: Are replacement taps and seals available for maintenance?
A: TurcoBazaar stocks brass tap assemblies and PTFE seal kits for the N11. Burner components including jets and thermocouples are available for scheduled maintenance or repair.
