KELOO Electric Contact Grill Single 305mm 1.8kW - Ribbed Top Flat Base - EG-811A

Grooved on top, flat underneath - the combination that actually works for sandwiches. The ribbed upper plate presses char lines into the bread, while the flat lower plate gives full contact underneath so the base browns evenly instead of striping.

The EG-811A is the compact 305mm model: the right size for a café adding paninis and toasties without giving up half a bench.

Key features

• Ribbed top, flat base - char lines on show, even browning underneath
• Cooks from both sides at once - roughly half the time of a single-sided grill, with no turning
• 305 x 400 x 210mm (W x D x H) - a small footprint that fits into a crowded café counter
• 1.8kW on a standard 13A supply - plugs into an ordinary socket
• Floating hinged top plate - self-levels over thick and thin fillings so pressure stays even
• Thermostat control - set once for your product and leave it through service
• Stainless steel body with drip tray - quick to wipe down at end of service

Specification

Typical uses

Cafés and coffee shops, sandwich and deli counters, bakeries, pub kitchens, convenience store food-to-go, and any site adding hot sandwiches to a cold menu.

Choosing your grill

This range runs the 305mm EG-811A, the 425mm EG-811EA and the 580mm fully grooved EG-813. Ribbed top with a flat base is the best all-round sandwich configuration - it marks the top without striping the bottom. Fully grooved (EG-813) is the choice if you are grilling meat and vegetables more than bread. On width: 305mm handles a steady café trade, 425mm doubles your throughput at peak, 580mm is for volume sites.

Good to know

Wipe the plates down while they are still warm, with a scraper and a damp cloth rather than an abrasive - the non-stick coating on grill plates is the part that wears first, and abrasive cleaning is what shortens its life. Empty the drip tray daily. Allow the grill to come fully up to temperature before the first order; a cold plate will not mark the bread.
