Bain-marie BHS-G GBJ4022-097EG

A heated cooking trolley keeps prepared dishes at serving temperature without further cooking. Two independent water baths hold gastronorm containers while electric elements maintain a steady heat. The water transfers warmth evenly around the containers, preventing hot spots and drying out.

The operator loads two GN 1/1 gastronorm containers into the baths, fills the baths with water to the marked level, and sets each temperature dial between 30 °C and 100 °C. Once the elements reach the set point, the water circulates naturally, keeping the containers at a uniform temperature. Drain valves at the base of each bath let water be emptied without lifting the trolley, and an additional shelf below stores serving utensils or empty containers.

The trolley is built from stainless steel for hygiene and durability. Four castors—two with brakes—allow the unit to be moved between kitchen and service areas and then locked in place. Bumpers protect the trolley and surrounding equipment from knocks during transport.

The 2 kW power rating means the trolley requires a dedicated 230 V circuit capable of handling the load without tripping. The temperature range of 30 °C to 100 °C covers holding warm sauces, soups, stews and delicate items that must not overcook. The 970 mm length and 650 mm width fit standard worktop depths and aisle widths in professional kitchens, while the 900 mm height allows easy access for staff.

Cleaning involves draining the water, wiping the baths and exterior with a damp cloth, and drying the stainless steel surfaces to prevent water marks. The castors and bumpers should be checked regularly for debris that could impede movement or damage the trolley.

This model holds two GN 1/1 gastronorm containers and includes a lower shelf for storage. The separate temperature controls and drain valves apply to each bath independently.
