CASTA Fries Warmer GN1/1 LQ/SPE40BB for Countertop Use

A countertop fries warmer keeps cooked chips at serving temperature without further frying. The unit holds a shallow gastronorm container under two heating elements: a ceramic plate above the food and a sheathed element beneath the container. Together they radiate and conduct heat evenly across the chips, preventing the surface from drying out while the bottom stays crisp. The false bottom inside the container lifts the chips away from any residual oil, so they remain separate and hygienic.

Load the GN 1/1 container with freshly cooked chips, slide it into the warmer and switch on. The ceramic element above and the sheathed element below begin to heat immediately. After service, remove the container, lift out the false bottom and wash both parts separately.

The entire unit is built from AISI 304 stainless steel with a Scotch Brite finish. The work surface and body are 2.0 mm thick, giving a stable, rigid countertop appliance. Four adjustable legs raise the warmer to a comfortable working height and prevent movement during use. The container itself is also stainless steel and 150 mm deep, matching the GN 1/1 standard for easy transfer between kitchen stations.

A 1 kW power rating draws a modest load from a standard 230 V single-phase circuit, suitable for most professional kitchens. The footprint of 400 mm depth by 900 mm width fits neatly on a worktop or pass-through counter, while the 275 mm height keeps the unit low enough for staff to reach over comfortably.

Cleaning is straightforward: the container and false bottom are removable, so both can be washed in a sink or dishwasher. The stainless steel surfaces wipe clean with a damp cloth, and the Scotch Brite finish resists fingerprints and smudges during service.

The warmer is supplied as a single unit; no additional containers or accessories are included.
