Product Description
The Roller Grill GES 20 is a countertop contact waffle iron designed specifically for producing Liege-style waffles. Unlike pressed Belgian waffles, Liege waffles are made from a denser, enriched dough rather than a poured batter, and the GES 20 is built with this in mind — its cast plates are designed to handle the thicker consistency and deliver an evenly caramelised finish across both grids simultaneously.
In a busy service environment, the ability to cook two waffles at once keeps output consistent without requiring a large footprint or a dedicated station. The unit works with both fresh and pre-prepared frozen dough, which gives operators flexibility in how they organise prep and manage throughput during peak periods. Recovery between batches is reliable enough for steady counter service, though operators running very high volumes continuously may find a multi-plate or higher-capacity unit better suited to their needs.
From an operational standpoint, the GES 20 offers a number of practical advantages for café, dessert, and street food-style service:
- Compact countertop footprint leaves room for other equipment or prep space
- Dual-grid design doubles output without doubling handling time
- Suitable for fresh dough and frozen pre-portioned product
- Cast plate construction supports consistent heat distribution across the waffle surface
- Simple operation reduces training time for front-of-house or pop-up service staff
Installation is straightforward — the GES 20 is a plug-in unit requiring only a suitable mains socket, with no specialist installation or extraction requirements in most settings. As with any contact grill, it should be positioned on a stable, heat-resistant surface and kept clear of combustible materials during use. Cleaning is relatively simple, though regular maintenance of the plates will preserve the non-stick performance and longevity of the unit.
This model is well suited to cafés, dessert counters, hotel breakfast operations, and event or market traders looking to offer freshly made Liege waffles as part of their menu. It is a practical entry point for operators new to waffle service, and equally useful as a supplementary unit for those already running a waffle programme who need additional capacity without a significant investment.
If you are unsure whether this model fits your service volume or counter setup, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The GES 20 is well suited to steady counter service and moderate-volume output, such as a busy café or hotel breakfast operation. For sites running continuous back-to-back production over long service periods, a multi-plate or heavier-duty unit may offer better throughput and durability under sustained load.
- No — the GES 20 is a plug-in countertop unit that requires only a suitable mains electrical socket. There are no gas, water, or specialist ventilation requirements, though as with any heated cooking equipment it should be used in a well-ventilated area and positioned on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
- The GES 20 is designed to work with both freshly prepared Liege waffle dough and pre-portioned frozen product, giving operators flexibility in how they manage prep. Using frozen dough can help simplify service and reduce prep time, particularly in smaller or pop-up operations.
