Tabletop gas hob BHS-G GG2140-080EV

A gas fry top heats a solid metal plate with burners beneath, transferring heat evenly across the surface for consistent cooking. The chromed plate on this BHS-G model conducts heat rapidly and retains it, allowing immediate searing or gentle frying without hot spots. Because the plate is smooth and non-porous, food releases cleanly, preserving flavour and appearance—critical when preparing delicate items like fish or seafood.

To start, the operator turns the ergonomic knobs to the desired temperature, confirmed by the piezo-electric igniter lighting the burners. The inclined surface lets excess fat drain away through a large hole into a container below, reducing flare-ups and simplifying cleaning. Once the plate reaches the set temperature, food is placed directly on the surface, where the even heat distribution ensures uniform cooking across the entire 790 by 510 mm area.

The fry top is built with a stainless-steel body for durability in busy kitchens. The chromed cooking surface resists sticking and corrosion, while the removable chimney can be detached and washed in a dishwasher. Temperature is adjusted smoothly via the knobs, allowing precise control between 120 °C and 280 °C for tasks from gentle warming to high-heat searing. A hair-joint connection system ensures seamless alignment with other GORT LINE 700 units when placed side by side.

The 13 kW power rating indicates the gas load required, so the kitchen must have a suitable supply line and ventilation. The 800 by 730 mm footprint fits standard worktops, while the 250 mm height allows comfortable use without excessive bending. The removable fat container catches drippings, reducing mess and fire risk during operation.

Cleaning involves wiping the chromed surface while warm, then removing the chimney and fat container for thorough washing. The inclined plate and large drain hole prevent grease build-up, making daily upkeep straightforward. When ordering, the gas type must be specified to match the kitchen's supply—options include G20, G25, G25.3, G2.350, G27, or G30/G31.

This fry top is part of the BHS-G professional catering range, designed for commercial kitchens requiring precise heat control and easy maintenance.
