Tabletop gas hob Stalgast 773036

A stockpot stove concentrates intense heat beneath a single large vessel, allowing rapid boiling, simmering or reduction of stocks, soups and sauces. The burner directs a ring of gas flame upwards, transferring heat directly to the base of the pot. A pilot flame remains lit to ignite the main burner instantly, while a flame safety device cuts the gas supply if the flame is extinguished, preventing unburned gas from accumulating. Reducing the burner to one-third power creates an economical flame for gentle simmering without scorching.

The operator places a stockpot of 450 to 500 mm diameter on the removable stainless steel grate, ensuring even heat distribution across the base. Adjustable feet level the unit on uneven floors, keeping the pot stable. The main burner is lit from the pilot, then set to full power for rapid heating or reduced to one-third for controlled simmering. Once cooking is complete, the burner is turned off and the pot removed.

The stove is constructed with a stainless steel grate that supports the pot and can be lifted out for cleaning. The burner assembly includes a pilot flame and a flame safety device that automatically shuts off the gas if the flame fails. Adjustable feet allow the unit to be levelled on any kitchen floor.

The 11 kW power rating indicates a high-output burner suitable for large-volume cooking, drawing a significant load on the gas supply. The footprint of 565 by 605 mm accommodates pots up to 500 mm in diameter, making it a compact yet powerful addition to a professional kitchen.

Cleaning involves removing the stainless steel grate and wiping down the burner area to clear food debris and grease. The adjustable feet should be checked periodically to ensure stability.

The stove is also available in gas versions G27 and G31, offering compatibility with different gas types.
