The Lincat ECG6 is an electric countertop chargrill built for commercial kitchen use. It uses electric heating elements to produce the branded grill marks and chargrilled finish more commonly associated with gas or charcoal equipment. An integral water bath sits beneath the cooking grid, adding humidity during cooking and simplifying end-of-service cleaning.

In a working kitchen the ECG6 performs reliably across a sustained service. The water bath helps retain moisture in meat and fish, which reduces shrinkage and supports consistent plate presentation — a practical consideration where yield matters and covers are moving steadily. A safety cut-out activates if the water bath runs dry, offering a degree of protection during a busy service when the unit may not be watched constantly.

The main operational advantages worth noting:

  • Integral water bath maintains humidity and reduces food shrinkage during cooking
  • Splash guard with water funnel allows the tank to be topped up without interrupting service
  • Hinging elements lift clear for straightforward end-of-service cleaning
  • Electric operation removes the need for a gas supply or gas safety infrastructure
  • High-temperature safety cut-out protects the unit if the water bath runs dry

As a countertop unit, the primary installation considerations are available worktop space and access to a suitable electrical supply. No gas connection is required. The cooking process generates smoke and steam, so adequate canopy extraction above the unit is essential and should be confirmed before the unit is installed — this is standard practice for chargrilling equipment in most commercial kitchens.

The ECG6 is well suited to smaller and mid-sized operations that want to offer chargrilled dishes without a gas infrastructure: cafés, gastropubs, hotel kitchens, and compact restaurant operations are typical environments. It works well as a standalone grill or alongside other countertop cooking equipment. For sites running high volumes of chargrilled covers across a long continuous service, it is worth considering whether a larger or heavier-duty unit would be a better fit for the demand.

If you would like to talk through whether this unit suits your service style and kitchen setup, our team is happy to help you work through it before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

Is the ECG6 suitable for a kitchen that doesn't have a gas supply?

Yes — the ECG6 runs entirely on electricity, so there is no need for a gas connection or the associated safety infrastructure. You will need a suitable electrical supply at the point of installation, and it is worth confirming the circuit specification with a qualified electrician before fitting.

What extraction do I need above an electric chargrill?

Despite being electric, the ECG6 generates smoke and steam during cooking, so adequate canopy extraction directly above the unit is essential. Most commercial kitchens running chargrilling equipment will already have suitable extraction in place, but this should be confirmed before installation — particularly if the unit is being positioned in a new location on the cookline.

Is the ECG6 the right choice for a high-volume operation?

The ECG6 is well suited to smaller and mid-sized operations where chargrilled dishes form part of the menu rather than the bulk of output. For kitchens running a high volume of chargrilled covers continuously across a long service, it is worth speaking with us about whether a larger or higher-capacity unit would better match the throughput required.
