KELOO Commercial Electric Rice Cooker 30L 3.25kW - ERC-30L

Production-volume rice from a single load. The ERC-30L takes around 9.5kg of dry rice - roughly 125 portions - and cooks it unattended, then holds it on keep-warm. At this size a rice cooker is doing the work of a hob section on its own.

Built for kitchens where rice goes out by the tray rather than by the plate: banqueting, contract catering, buffet service and central production.

Where this sits in the range

Key features

• 30L capacity - approximately 9.5kg dry rice, around 125 portions per batch
• 3.25kW element - sized to bring a full 30L drum up to temperature in a workable time
• Automatic cook-to-warm switching - drops to keep-warm on its own when the rice is done
• Non-stick inner pot - lifts out for washing and releases rice without scraping
• Covers a full function in one batch - no reloading part-way through a sitting
• Frees a hob section - releases burners for the rest of the menu during service
• Also cooks other batch products - steamed rice, congee, pasta, potatoes and pulses

Specification

Typical uses

Banqueting and event kitchens, buffet restaurants, contract and school catering, hospitals and care homes, central production kitchens, and places of worship catering for large gatherings.

Choosing your size

This range runs 8L, 10L, 13L, 19L, 30L and 35L. Size on your busiest single service rather than your daily total. 30L and 35L are production sizes - if you are cooking three or more batches on a 19L to get through a sitting, this is the model that collapses that into one. Below that volume, two smaller cookers often give you more flexibility than one large one.

Good to know

At 3.25kW this cooker draws more than a standard 13A socket allows. It needs a dedicated commercial supply - please check your electrics before ordering, and speak to our team if you are unsure. Cooked rice is also one of the higher-risk products in a commercial kitchen: serve it hot from the cooker or cool it quickly and refrigerate within an hour, and do not reheat it more than once. At this volume, plan your cooling before you plan your batch.
