Roller Grill 400 CFG LPG Gas Crêpe Machine

Product No: 400 CFG

Product Description

The Roller Grill 400 CFG is a gas-fired crêpe machine running on LPG, built around a 400mm diameter cast iron cooking plate. It requires no electrical connection, making it genuinely portable for settings where a mains supply is unavailable or impractical. The machine handles crêpes, pancakes, blinis, and similar thin batters across a range of catering environments.

Cast iron distributes and retains heat evenly across the cooking surface, which reduces hot spots and helps maintain consistent browning without tearing. The plate is hard enamelled and treated to resist sticking — important when working quickly with thin batters during a busy service window. Because heat recovery is steady rather than rapid, this machine suits moderate throughput comfortably, though operators running a dedicated crêpe counter at high volume all day may find it limiting at this plate size and power level.

In practice, the 400 CFG is well suited to:

  • Mobile catering units, food trucks, and market stalls
  • Café and restaurant dessert or theatre-cooking stations
  • Event catering, pop-ups, and hospitality activations
  • Schools, leisure sites, and community kitchens with occasional crêpe service

Because it runs on LPG, an appropriate gas cylinder, regulator, and compatible hose must be in place before use. The machine should always be operated in a well-ventilated area, and any semi-permanent installation within a commercial kitchen should be reviewed against local gas safety regulations. It is not suitable for use in enclosed spaces without adequate ventilation.

If you are weighing this model against a larger plate size, an electric alternative, or simply want to talk through expected output for your service, we are happy to help you work it out before you order.
