Commercial Glass Buffet Warmer Features & Performance

• Modern Front-of-House Glass Presentation: Traditional water-filled bains-marie can look industrial and generate messy steam condensation on customer serving lines. The INF-TC2 replaces wet wells with a sleek, flat black ceramic glass surface. Chefs can place stainless steel 1/1 Gastronorm pans, cast iron sizzle dishes, or decorative ceramic platters directly onto the heated glass deck, providing an elegant and clean presentation for upscale buffets.
• Two Generous Heating Zones (526mm x 324mm): Sized specifically around standard commercial catering dimensions, the glass cooking deck accommodates two full-size 1/1 GN pans or combinations of smaller 1/2 and 1/3 GN containers side-by-side. The broad heating area allows venues to hold breakfast sausages, bacon, scrambled eggs, roasted vegetables, or carved meats warm throughout long dining services.
• Precision German EGO Thermostat (30°C to 85°C): Equipped with an industry-standard German EGO rotary thermostat dial. The smooth mechanical control allows kitchen and front-of-house staff to dial in exact temperatures from 30°C to 85°C, ensuring compliance with commercial hot-holding food hygiene standards (keeping foods safely above 63°C) without overcooking delicate sauces or drying out proteins.
• Concealed Underside Heating Elements (500W Total): Driven by dual 250W under-glass heating elements that transmit gentle, uniform conductive heat through the ceramic plate. This eliminates the scorching and hotspots common with direct exposed elements, ensuring that even delicate egg dishes or creamy sauces maintain their texture without skinning over.
• Ultra-Low Energy Draw (Standard 13A UK Plug): Drawing just 500 watts (approx. 2.2 amps), the INF-TC2 runs off any standard UK 13-amp 3-pin wall socket. Its ultra-low power consumption drastically reduces daily running costs and makes it an ideal option for mobile event caterers working on limited generator supplies.
• Durable Stainless Steel Chassis & Rapid Cleaning: Built with a commercial food-grade stainless steel body and toughened ceramic glass that resists scratching and thermal shock. At the end of service, the flat glass plate and stainless frame wipe clean in seconds with a damp cloth and mild sanitiser—no emptying water tanks or cleaning greasy elements required. Sturdy anti-slip rubber feet prevent shifting during active guest service.

Technical Specifications

Operating Advice: This hot plate is designed for holding pre-cooked hot food at serving temperature and should not be used as a primary cooking appliance. Always use flat-bottomed cookware, GN pans, or heat-rated serving platters to ensure maximum surface contact and efficient heat transfer.
