Delivery Information
Price Match
The Roller Grill PREMIUM VC L is a single-head contact grill that uses a vitro-ceramic infrared heating system in place of conventional cast iron or chrome plates. The lower plate is flat and the upper plate ribbed, which means the unit handles pressed sandwiches and paninis alongside items that need grill marks — chicken breasts, burgers, fish fillets — without any plate change between services.
Vitro-ceramic infrared technology transfers heat through smooth glass-surfaced plates. In practical terms this supports reasonably quick heat-up and a decent response to fresh load, without the sluggish recovery that heavier plate materials can introduce. Smoke and odour output during cooking is also noticeably lower than with traditional contact grills — a genuine operational consideration in smaller kitchens, café counters, or front-of-house settings where ventilation is limited.
Day-to-day advantages for kitchen operators include:
- Consistent heat contact across the plate surface, reducing uneven cooking results
- Lower residue build-up on ceramic plates, which speeds up clean-down between services
- Reduced ambient heat output compared with open grills, more manageable in tighter spaces
- Compact countertop footprint with no gas or water connections required
The unit runs from a standard single-phase electrical supply. Whilst ceramic technology reduces smoke considerably, reasonable ventilation in the immediate work area remains sensible practice. It is not configured for continuous high-volume throughput across a long, heavy-grill service; operations running that kind of demand would be better served by a heavier-duty or multi-head unit.
The PREMIUM VC L is well suited to cafés, sandwich bars, hotel kitchens, and smaller restaurant operations where grilled items appear on the menu but do not dominate service volume. It also performs reliably as a secondary grill on a busy station. For sites needing higher throughput or independent dual cooking zones, larger configurations in the range are worth discussing.
If you would like to talk through how this fits your menu and kitchen setup before ordering, the team is happy to help you think it through.
Frequently asked questions
Is the PREMIUM VC L suitable for a busy lunch service in a sandwich bar?
It performs reliably at moderate throughput, making it a practical choice for a sandwich bar or café running a steady but not relentless grill volume. If paninis and grilled items are coming through continuously for two or more hours at pace, a multi-head or heavier-duty unit would handle that demand more comfortably — this model is better placed where grilling is regular but not the dominant pressure point of service.
What does the vitro-ceramic system mean in terms of day-to-day kitchen use?
The ceramic infrared plates reach working temperature more quickly than traditional cast iron and produce noticeably less smoke and odour during cooking. This makes the unit more practical in environments with limited extraction, such as small kitchens or counter-service settings, and the smoother plate surface tends to be easier to clean at the end of service.
What are the installation requirements for this contact grill?
The unit requires a standard single-phase electrical supply and sits on a countertop — there are no gas lines, water connections, or fixed installation works involved. Positioning it near reasonable ventilation is still advisable even with the reduced smoke output, and you should ensure the counter surface is stable and heat-resistant.
