MBM MAGISTRA PLUS 700 Electric Stove for Professional Kitchens, 9 kW

An electric stove transfers energy directly from heating elements to cooking surfaces, eliminating open flames while delivering precise temperature control. The elements convert electrical current into heat, which radiates through the cooking zones to pots and pans. This method ensures even heat distribution and rapid response to adjustments, making it suitable for high-volume cooking where consistency matters.

The MAGISTRA PLUS 700 stove begins with the operator selecting a cooking zone and setting its temperature using the independent controls. Each zone heats independently, allowing different dishes to be prepared simultaneously. The cast iron plate, with its removable central ring, provides a durable surface that retains heat well, while the carbon steel zones offer quick heating and flexibility for various pan sizes. Once the desired temperature is reached, the operator places cookware on the zone and monitors cooking progress, adjusting settings as needed.

The worktop is constructed from 1 mm AISI 304 stainless steel with pressed edges to contain spills, while the cooking surfaces use 10 mm cast iron and 15 mm carbon steel for durability. The 9 kW stainless steel burner powers the cast iron plate, and four separate elements heat the carbon steel zones, each controlled independently.

A 9 kW power rating indicates a significant electrical load, requiring a dedicated three-phase 400 V circuit commonly found in professional kitchens. The 84 kg weight suggests a sturdy, floor-standing unit that remains stable during use but may require two people for installation or relocation. The 700 mm width and 714 mm depth determine the space it occupies on the kitchen floor, while the 850 mm height positions the worktop at a standard ergonomic level for standing operation.

The stainless steel worktop and pressed edges simplify cleaning by preventing liquids from seeping into seams. The removable cast iron ring allows for thorough cleaning of the central area, while the independent cooking zones can be wiped down after use without affecting adjacent surfaces. Regular maintenance involves checking the heating elements for wear and ensuring the pressed edges remain free of debris.

The MAGISTRA PLUS 700 is categorised under professional electric stoves in the MBM range, designed for commercial kitchens requiring high-power cooking solutions.
