Product Description
The Lincat PB66 is a twin tank electric pasta boiler designed for continuous use in commercial kitchens where pasta features regularly on the menu. Each tank operates independently, allowing different pasta types or portion sizes to be cooked simultaneously, which is a practical advantage during a busy service when orders vary.
In a working kitchen environment, the PB66 performs consistently under repeated use. The thermostatic control maintains a stable water temperature throughout service, which matters when you need reliable, even cooking across successive batches. Recovery between portions is steady, and the separate tanks mean one can be refreshed or rested without interrupting output from the other.
From an operational standpoint, several design choices reflect practical kitchen use:
- Front-mounted controls keep adjustments accessible without reaching over hot surfaces
- Hinging element with safety cut-out allows straightforward access to the tank for cleaning
- Front drain taps make water changes quicker at the end of service
- Stainless steel tanks and elements resist corrosion over time
- A choice of basket configurations supports different portion and pasta-type requirements
Installation is straightforward relative to gas alternatives — as an electric unit it requires an appropriate power supply and a suitable worktop or counter position with drainage accessible nearby. The front drain taps simplify daily water changes without needing to lift the unit. It is worth confirming your electrical supply can support the unit's load before installation, and ensuring adequate extraction is in place above the cooking area.
The PB66 is well suited to restaurants, hotels, and contract catering operations where pasta dishes are a consistent part of the menu and a reliable, manageable twin tank unit is preferable to a larger, higher-output boiler. For very high-volume sites — large-scale pasta-focused kitchens or high-throughput canteens — a heavier-duty model with greater combined capacity may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether the PB66 is the right fit for your service volume or kitchen setup, our team is happy to talk through the options with you before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The PB66 is well suited to restaurants where pasta is a regular menu feature and a steady, manageable throughput is needed rather than very high-volume output. The twin tank design helps maintain continuous service, though for sites cooking pasta at very high volume across a long service period, a larger-capacity unit may be a better fit — it is worth discussing your expected covers with us before deciding.
- As an electric unit, the PB66 requires an appropriate power supply capable of supporting its load — your electrician should confirm suitability before installation. You will also need a nearby drain for the front drain taps to be practical, and adequate ventilation or extraction above the cooking area. It is designed for counter or worktop installation, so a stable, heat-resistant surface at a workable height is also necessary.
- Yes — the independently operating twin tanks mean you can cook different pasta types, sizes, or batches simultaneously without one affecting the other. The available choice of basket configurations supports this further, allowing you to match basket size and layout to the specific pasta portions your menu requires.
