The M018 is a single-burner gas stockpot hob delivering 2580 kcal (3 kW) output for heavy-duty stock preparation and large-volume simmering. It operates on LPG or natural gas and supports pots up to 30 kg capacity. Built for restaurants, hotels, and catering kitchens running continuous stock production.
Commercial Application
Stock reduction, sauce preparation, and bulk soup production require sustained heat over extended periods. The M018 provides consistent flame control for operations that cannot afford fluctuating temperatures during multi-hour cooking cycles. Gas burner design delivers direct heat transfer to large-diameter vessels.
Used during prep shifts for batch cooking stocks, broths, and sauces that supply service stations throughout the day. The 2580 kcal output maintains rolling simmer for 20-30 litre batches without temperature drop when ingredients are added. Flame adjustment allows transition from rapid boil to gentle reduction without repositioning cookware.
