Product Description
The Lincat PB66 is a twin tank electric pasta boiler designed for commercial kitchens where pasta appears consistently on the menu. Each tank operates independently, which allows different pasta types or portion sizes to be cooked simultaneously — a practical advantage when orders vary across a busy service.
In operation, the PB66 holds up well under the repeated demands of a continuous service. Thermostatic control maintains stable water temperature across successive batches, which supports consistent results when pasta dishes are being turned around throughout the day. The independent tank arrangement also means one side can be refreshed or briefly rested without interrupting output from the other — a useful characteristic when demand shifts unevenly across a sitting.
Several design details reflect practical kitchen use:
- Front-mounted controls keep adjustments accessible without reaching over hot surfaces
- Hinging element with safety cut-out allows straightforward access for cleaning between services
- Front drain taps simplify water changes at the end of service without having to lift or move the unit
- Stainless steel tanks and elements offer durability suited to regular commercial use
- Basket configurations can be adapted to different portion sizes and pasta types
As an electric unit, installation is generally more straightforward than a gas equivalent — there is no gas supply or flue to account for. You will need an appropriate power supply to support the unit's load, a stable worktop position, and drainage within reach. Extraction above the cooking area should also be confirmed before installation, as steam output during service is considerable.
The PB66 is well suited to restaurants, hotels, and contract catering operations where pasta is a regular menu fixture and a reliable twin tank unit is enough to meet service demand. For very high-volume sites — large pasta-focused restaurants or high-throughput canteens — a heavier-duty model with greater combined capacity may be worth considering.
If you would like to talk through whether the PB66 fits your kitchen layout and service volumes, our team is happy to help you work that out before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The PB66 performs reliably in mid-to-high-volume settings where pasta is a regular menu fixture, such as restaurants and hotel kitchens running consistent covers. For very high-throughput operations — large canteens or pasta-led concepts pushing significant volume continuously — it is worth discussing whether a heavier-duty unit with greater combined capacity would serve better.
- You will need a stable worktop position, a suitable electrical supply to handle the unit's load, and drainage accessible nearby for the front drain taps. Adequate extraction above the cooking area is also important given the steam output during service — this is often overlooked but should be confirmed before installation.
- Because each tank operates separately, you can run different pasta types or portion sizes at the same time without one affecting the other. It also means that if one side needs refreshing or a water change mid-service, you can do so without completely halting output — a practical advantage when demand shifts across a sitting.
