Double Panini Grill, Smooth\/Smooth Cast Iron Plates, Built-In Timer","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Omcan PG-CN-0711-FT 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. A built-in timer lets you set a consistent press duration for each sandwich so you can step away to plate other orders or prep toppings without watching the clock. This is especially useful during a lunch rush when you are running multiple grills and cannot babysit each one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCast Iron Grilling Surfaces with Stainless Steel Body\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e3,200W Heating Element with Thermostat Up to 572°F\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Omcan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51267210903837,"sku":"42913","price":936.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/4716\/2909\/files\/48206_be5d5c39-58ad-4396-a831-0d29e7bd8d3f.jpg?v=1778414556","url":"https:\/\/thechefstore.com\/products\/omcan-pg-cn-0711-ft-22-in-double-panini-grill-smooth-smooth-cast-iron-plates-built-in-timer","provider":"TheChefStore.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
