Panini Griddle 50 Cm 20" Heavy Duty Commercial Panini Contact grill Ribbed

Q: Is the cooking surface chrome-plated or bare cast iron?

A: Both plates are ribbed cast iron without chrome plating. Operators season the surface with cooking oil before first use. Daily brushing and re-oiling maintain the non-stick patina.

Q: Can this unit run on propane or only natural gas?

A: The GMT01 is configured for natural gas supply at standard commercial pressure. Propane conversion requires burner orifice replacement and regulator adjustment by a qualified gas technician.

Q: How is grease managed during cooking?

A: The ribbed plate design channels rendered fat toward the front edge. A removable stainless steel drip tray sits below the cooking surface to collect grease. Operators empty the tray between service periods.

Q: Is the 9 kg weight suitable for food truck mounting?

A: The unit weighs 9 kg and measures 43 × 50 cm at the base. Most food truck countertops support this load without reinforcement. Secure the unit with L-brackets during transit to prevent sliding.

Q: Does the single burner create uneven temperature zones?

A: The burner flame spreads across the base plate width, and cast iron distributes heat laterally. The center runs slightly hotter than edges. Operators place thicker items toward the center and thinner items toward the perimeter.
