Omcan PG-CN-0711-F 22 In. Double Panini Grill, Smooth/Smooth Cast Iron Plates

SKU21466 BrandOmcan

The Omcan 21466 Panini Grill

The Omcan PG-CN-0711-F is a double panini grill with smooth/smooth cast iron plates and a 10" x 18" cooking surface, built for restaurants, delis, cafes, and sandwich shops that serve pressed sandwiches, panini, quesadillas, and grilled flatbreads. Both the top and bottom plates are smooth, which gives you full, even contact with flat breads like focaccia, ciabatta, and flour tortillas. Smooth plates also work well for delicate items like quesadillas and grilled cheese where you want a uniform golden crust without grill marks.

Cast Iron Grilling Surfaces with Stainless Steel Body

The cast iron cooking plates retain heat better than stamped aluminum or coated surfaces, which means the plate temperature recovers faster between sandwiches and you get consistent browning from the first press of the shift to the last. Cast iron also builds a natural seasoning over time that improves nonstick performance without the risk of coatings peeling or flaking into food. The stainless steel body wipes down quickly and holds up to the grease splatter and crumb buildup that comes with high-volume sandwich production. Heat-resistant handles on the top plate let you open and close the grill safely during back-to-back pressing, and non-slip rubber feet keep the unit stable on wet or greasy countertops. A panini grill cleaning brush is included so you can scrape the plates between orders without damaging the cooking surface.

3,200W Heating Element with Thermostat Up to 572°F

The thermostat adjusts up to 572°F, which is well above the range you need for most pressed sandwiches (typically 350 to 450°F) and gives you headroom for high-heat searing on flatbreads or quick-browning items like grilled pita. At 3,200W on a 220V / 60Hz / 1Ph circuit with a NEMA 6-20P plug, the dual heating elements in the top and bottom plates heat up quickly and recover temperature fast between presses. The "double" designation refers to the dual-plate hinged design where the top plate presses down onto the bottom plate under its own weight, applying even pressure across the full 10" x 18" cooking area. This pressing action compresses sandwiches for the flat, crispy result customers expect from a proper panini.

    About Panini Grills

    Commercial panini grills are essential for any operation serving pressed sandwiches. They use heat and pressure from both sides, giving you a crisp crust and melted interior faster than a flat top or oven. Whether you run a cafe, deli, hotel, or restaurant, a commercial panini grill gives you consistent results on every sandwich. Electric models are available in single and double configurations, with flat and grooved plates to match your menu and presentation style. If you need a compact single press for lower volume or a large commercial double panini press for busy service, there is a model to fit your kitchen and output needs.

    Common Types and Configurations

    • Commercial panini press: The go-to for most cafes and delis. Delivers even heat and pressure from both plates for reliable results.
    • Commercial panini press flat: Smooth plates top and bottom. Use when you want full contact and no grill marks.
    • Commercial double panini press: Two sets of plates in one. Press more sandwiches at once to keep up with busy service.
    • Commercial panini press with removable plates: Plates come off for faster cleaning. Good for high-volume kitchens that need quick changeovers.
    • Commercial sandwich grill: Like a panini press, but usually with grooved plates for grill marks and better grease drainage.

    What to Look at Before You Buy

    • Plate surface: Flat plates give you even contact and a smooth finish. Grooved plates add grill marks and help drain grease. Some units offer a grooved top and flat bottom for more flexibility.
    • Plate size: Match plate size to your bread. Most run from 10x10 to 10x20 inches. Bigger plates mean more sandwiches per batch.
    • Single or double: Single presses work for low volume. Go double if you need to keep up during rushes.
    • Removable plates: Easier to clean and let you switch between grooved and flat plates as your menu changes.
    • Timer: Built-in timers take the guesswork out and help staff get consistent results, especially when you have new team members.
    • Voltage: Most units run on 120V or 220V. Check your kitchen's power before you buy.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the difference between a panini press and a sandwich grill?

    A panini press uses flat or grooved plates on both sides to press and heat the sandwich at once. Sandwich grill usually means grooved plates for grill marks. Most kitchens use the terms interchangeably. The real difference is whether you want grill marks or a smooth finish.

    How much does a commercial panini grill cost?

    Commercial panini grill prices depend on plate size, single or double units, and features like removable plates or timers. Single presses cost less. Double units with extras cost more but give you more output and easier cleaning for busy kitchens.

    What should I look for when buying a commercial panini grill?

    Start with plate size and surface. Make sure the plates fit your bread and decide if you want flat, grooved, or both. Then pick single or double based on your volume. Look for even heat, removable plates, and a timer to keep service moving. The best commercial panini press for your operation matches your bread size, volume, and service style.
