Expert Review and  Insights

Lincat's Silverlink 600 range has a stellar reputation for a reason, and  this GS9 dual zone griddle is a prime example. It’s not flashy, but it's incredibly effective. The heat distribution across that thick steel plate is superb, giving you the confidence to cook anywhere on the surface. For kitchens that need versatility and  raw power, it's a very smart choice.

  • Pro: The dual zone control is precise, making it genuinely useful for multi-item cooking.
  • Con: It's a heavy unit, so ensure your counter can support its 60kg weight.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Bistro in Brighton was struggling with an ageing griddle that had inconsistent hot spots, causing delays during their popular weekend brunch service. They upgraded to the Lincat GS9 to increase capacity and  improve cooking quality.

"The Lincat GS9 has been brilliant. We can finally cook our halloumi skewers on one side and  sear off burger patties on the other, with no temperature dips. Our kitchen flow is so much smoother now."

Michael Davies – Head Chef

Since installation, the bistro has successfully reduced its average brunch ticket time by over 15% on weekends.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the counter is level and  can safely support over 61kg.
  • Leave adequate ventilation space around the unit as per the manufacturer's guidelines.
  • Before first use, season the steel plate with cooking oil and  heat it to create a non-stick surface.
  • Have a qualified electrician connect the unit to the correct power supply.

Keeping It Going

  • Scrape down the surface with a griddle tool throughout service to remove food debris.
  • At the end of each day, clean the plate while it's still warm using a griddle scraper and  appropriate cleaner.
  • Regularly empty and  clean the front-access fat collection drawer.
  • Wipe down the stainless steel exterior with a soft, damp cloth to maintain its finish.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Griddle

Not sure which griddle is the right fit for your kitchen? Here are a few key things to consider.

Plate Material & Thickness

Steel plates, like on the GS9, offer fantastic heat retention for high-volume cooking. A thicker plate (12mm+) means less temperature drop during busy periods.

Power Source

Electric griddles offer precise thermostatic control and  are often easier to install. Gas models can heat up faster but may offer less precise temperature management.

Size and  Zones

Measure your counter space carefully! A wider griddle like this 900mm model is for high output. Dual zones offer amazing versatility for cooking different foods.

Safety & Cleaning

Look for features like built-in splashguards and  easy-to-access fat drainage drawers. They make life safer for staff and  speed up your end-of-day clean.

Modularity

If you plan to expand, consider a griddle from a matching range like Lincat's Silverlink 600. It ensures a professional, seamless cook line.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do the two cooking zones work?

A: Each half of the griddle has its own independent thermostatic control dial, allowing you to set two different temperatures simultaneously or just use one side during quieter periods.

Q: What is the main benefit of the thick steel plate?

A: The 12mm thick steel plate acts as a heat reservoir, providing excellent heat retention and  distribution. This means it won't lose temperature when you place cold food on it, ensuring a consistent cook.

Q: Is this griddle easy to clean?

A: Yes, its design makes cleaning straightforward. It features a fully welded plate to prevent dirt traps, a smooth surface for scraping, and  a front-mounted channel that drains grease into a collection drawer.

Q: What is the maximum temperature it can reach?

A: The Lincat GS9 has a temperature range of 50°C to 300°C, providing versatility for everything from gentle warming to hard searing.

Q: Can I cook directly on the surface?

A: Absolutely. The machined steel surface is designed for direct contact cooking. We recommend seasoning it before first use to create a natural non-stick layer.

Q: What kind of electrical supply does it require?

A: The GS9 is an 8.6kW unit and  can be configured for either a 230V single-phase or 400V three-phase supply. A qualified electrician should perform the installation.

Q: How long does it take to heat up?

A: Heat-up times can vary, but thanks to its powerful elements, it reaches its operating temperature efficiently, ready for a busy service.

Q: Can I use metal utensils on the griddle plate?

A: Yes, the solid steel plate is extremely durable and  designed to be used with metal spatulas, scrapers, and  turners.

Why the 12mm Machined Steel Plate Matters

This 'thermal mass' ensures every single item you cook gets the same consistent, even heat, whether it's in the centre or at the very edge, giving you predictable and  perfect results every single time.
