LOTUS Electric Pasta Cooking Machine 40 Litre CP-66ETX

A pasta cooking machine heats water in a stainless-steel tank and circulates it around perforated baskets of pasta, cooking the product evenly and quickly without stirring. The water remains at a constant temperature, so each batch emerges with the same texture and doneness, while the baskets keep the strands separate and prevent clumping.

The operator fills the 40-litre tank to the marked level, selects one of four temperature settings on the control switch, and lowers the chosen basket into the water. A safety thermostat prevents overheating, and a water-level sensor cuts power if the level falls too low. When the timer signals, the basket is lifted out and the pasta drained over the tank or a separate worktop. The front tap empties the tank for cleaning or a change of water, and the integrated filling system refills it without manual pouring.

The body is constructed from 1 mm CrNi 18/10 AISI 304 stainless steel with a Scotch-Brite finish, rounded edges and chrome-plated details. The tank itself is made of AISI 316 stainless steel for extra corrosion resistance in wet environments. IPX5-rated waterproof control knobs protect the electrical components from splashes and steam.

The 4-position control switch sets the cooking temperature, while the safety thermostat and water-level sensor monitor the process. Adjustable feet and a fixing system keep the unit stable on uneven floors.

A 13.5 kW power rating requires a 400 V 3-phase circuit, the standard supply for professional catering equipment. The 600x600x900 mm footprint fits within a metre-square worktop space, and the 81 kg weight ensures the unit stays in place during use. The 510x307x327 mm tank dimensions determine the maximum basket size and the volume of water that must be heated for each batch.

Daily maintenance involves draining the tank through the front tap, wiping the interior with a soft cloth, and rinsing the baskets. The front control panel opens to give access to the heating elements and sensors for periodic inspection. Perforated baskets in different configurations can be ordered separately to suit various pasta shapes and quantities.

The CP-66ETX is a single-tank pasta cooking machine designed for professional kitchens requiring consistent, high-volume pasta preparation.
