Expert Review and  Insights

The Blue Seal Evolution series has a reputation for being built like a tank, and  the E516A-LS is no exception. It’s a proper piece of engineering for kitchens that can’t afford downtime. The power and  zoned heating are standout features, giving chefs the sort of control you need for a varied menu. It’s a serious machine for a serious operation.

Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment Expert View Profile →

  • Pros: The three-zone control is brilliant for managing a complex breakfast service.
  • Cons: Its significant weight and  3-phase power needs mean installation isn't a simple DIY job.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Northern Quarter Grill' in Manchester were struggling with their old griddle, which created bottlenecks during their popular weekend brunch service. They upgraded to the Blue Seal E516A-LS to gain more space and  better temperature control across the cooktop.

"The difference is night and  day. We can have bacon sizzling on one side, pancakes on another, and  halloumi on the third, all at their perfect temperatures. Our ticket times have dropped, and  the chefs are far less stressed. It’s just so reliable."

Tom Williams – Head Chef

Since installation, the kitchen has increased its brunch cover capacity by 30% on weekends.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure you have a suitable 3-phase electricity supply installed by a qualified commercial electrician.
  • Position the unit on a level, stable surface, leaving adequate clearance for ventilation around the back and  sides.
  • Before first use, season the griddle plate according to the manufacturer's instructions to create a non-stick surface.
  • Connect to a water supply for the retractable hand shower and  iCareSystem features.

Keeping It Going

  • Scrape down the griddle plate after each use with a suitable tool to remove food debris.
  • Use the retractable hand shower for a quick rinse-down between services.
  • Run the automated iCareSystem cleaning cycle daily for a deep, thorough clean that protects the machine.
  • Regularly check and  empty the fat collection drawer to maintain hygiene and  safety.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Griddle

Feeling the heat when choosing a new griddle? It's a big decision, so here are a few things to keep in mind to make sure you get the perfect fit for your kitchen.

Size Matters

Think about your peak service. How many burgers, eggs, or pancakes do you need to cook at once? A 900mm width like this one is great for high-volume kitchens.

Power Source

Electric griddles offer consistent, even heat, but often require a dedicated high-power supply. Gas offers fast heat-up but can have hot spots. Choose what works for your setup.

Plate Material

Steel plates, like on this Blue Seal, are fantastic all-rounders – durable and  great at retaining heat. Chrome is more non-stick but requires more careful handling.

Thermostatic Control

Look for precise temperature controls. Independent zones, like those on the E516A-LS, give you ultimate flexibility to cook multiple items perfectly.

Ease of Cleaning

A griddle gets a lot of use, so cleaning can be a chore. Features like integrated cleaning systems or hand showers can save your team hours each week.
