LOTUS Electric Deep Bratt Pan AUTOMATIC 50 L BRM50-78ETX

A deep bratt pan combines the functions of a frying surface, a braising vessel and a shallow stockpot in one large, tilting bowl. The electric element beneath the stainless steel pan heats a thick thermodiffuser base, spreading the heat evenly across the entire cooking area. This even distribution prevents hot spots and allows simultaneous searing, sautéing and simmering without moving the food. The pan's depth and volume make it possible to prepare large batches of stews, sauces or stir-fries, while the tilting mechanism lets the operator decant the contents without lifting or pouring from a heavy container.

To use the pan, the operator fills the 50 L bowl via the built-in water inlet tap, sets the thermostatic control to the desired temperature up to 300 °C, and lowers the double-wall hinged lid to retain heat. Once the cooking cycle is complete, the pan is tilted manually up to 80° for safe and controlled discharge of the finished product. The lid remains hinged throughout, reducing the risk of spills or burns.

The construction is 18/10 AISI 304 CrNi stainless steel throughout, with a 2 mm thick worktop and rounded edges for safety and durability. Chrome-plated components and a rear splashback protect against corrosion and splashing. The control knobs are IPX5 water-resistant, allowing them to be wiped down without risk of electrical fault. A removable front control panel provides easy access to all internal components for maintenance and cleaning.

The 10.5 kW power rating requires a three-phase 400/440 V supply, suitable for professional kitchen circuits. The 135 kg weight and adjustable flanged feet ensure stability on uneven floors, while the 800 × 705 × 900 mm footprint fits into standard worktop layouts. The 50 L volume allows bulk cooking without overcrowding, and the thermostatic control up to 300 °C covers the full range of frying, braising and boiling temperatures.

Cleaning involves removing the front control panel to access the internal components, then wiping down the stainless steel surfaces with a non-abrasive cloth. The Scotch-Brite satin finish resists fingerprints and stains, and the rounded edges prevent food debris from accumulating in corners. The water inlet tap simplifies filling and draining, while the tilting mechanism allows complete emptying of the pan.

The BRM50-78ETX is a single model with no variants. It is categorised under professional electric bratt pans in the LOTUS catalogue.
