A lava rock grill uses natural volcanic stones that are heated by a gas burner. The stones retain and evenly distribute heat, similar to charcoal. This simulates the operation of an open flame grill. The lava rock grill provides a more authentic grilling flavor, as the stones mimic the heat of coals. When fat drips onto the hot stones, a light smoke is produced, giving the food a smoky, aromatic taste—similar to traditional outdoor grilling.
The CASTA E7/BS1BC is a lavastone ribbed gas grill designed for professional kitchens. This unit operates using gas burners that heat lava rocks placed beneath a ribbed grilling surface. The radiant heat from the hot lava stones, combined with the direct contact from the ribbed surface, cooks food, imparting characteristic grill marks and flavour.
The sequence of use involves igniting the gas burners, allowing the lava rocks to heat up. Once at temperature, food is placed directly onto the ribbed stainless steel grilling surface. The grill grate is shaped in a “V” to channel cooking fats away. Temperature is regulated using minimum and maximum settings controlled by heat-resistant knobs. The unit is equipped with a gas safety tap, a thermocouple for flame failure detection, and piezoelectric ignition for starting the burners.
Construction features a stainless steel surface made of AISI 304 with a rounded top edge. The “V” shaped grill grate is also stainless steel. A steel grate for grilling fish is available on request. For managing cooking byproducts, there is a grease runner with a drainage hole leading to a removable fat collection drawer. The adjustable legs are made of AISI 304 18/10 stainless steel. The unit is CE certified.
The power rating of 8 kW indicates the maximum rate at which the appliance consumes gas to generate heat. The dimensions are 400 mm in length, 700 mm in width, and 850 mm in height. These measurements define the unit's footprint and the space required for installation.
Cleaning involves emptying the removable fat collection drawer and cleaning the grease runner. The unit includes 5 lava rocks. The catalogue places this product under lava grills.
