Expert Review and  Insights

The Lincat OE8017 is a brilliant bit of kit that truly merges the best of both worlds. The induction top is incredibly responsive—we're talking instant power—which is fantastic for a fast-paced service. Underneath, the fan oven is a reliable workhorse. It's a robust, well-thought-out unit designed for kitchens that value both speed and  substance. A solid investment for any serious chef.

  • Pros: The energy efficiency of the induction top is a huge long-term cost saver.
  • Cons: Its 400V 3-phase power need means you'll need a suitable electrical setup.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Bistro in Padstow, Cornwall, needed to replace their ageing gas range, which was struggling to keep up with their busy summer season. They chose the Lincat OE8017 to improve kitchen efficiency and  create a cooler working environment.

"The difference is night and  day. The hob is so fast, and  the oven cooks everything incredibly evenly. Service is smoother, the kitchen is less stuffy, and  our energy bills have noticeably dropped. It's been a brilliant upgrade for us."

Liam Evans – Head Chef

Since installation, The Harbour View has increased its main course output by over 20% during peak hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the unit is installed on a flat, level surface to guarantee even cooking.
  • This appliance requires a 3-phase electrical supply and  must be hardwired by a qualified commercial electrician.
  • Leave adequate space around the unit for ventilation, as recommended in the manufacturer's manual.
  • Give the oven a 'burn-off' run before first use to remove any factory residues.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the glass-ceramic hob after every service with a suitable cleaner to prevent build-up.
  • Regularly remove and  clean the oven shelves and  supports.
  • The removable oven base plate should be taken out and  cleaned weekly for optimal hygiene.
  • Locate and  clean the built-in filter regularly to ensure cooling fans operate efficiently.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Oven Range

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

Power Source: Gas vs. Induction

Induction offers incredible speed, efficiency, and  a cooler kitchen, but requires specific cookware. Gas provides traditional flame control that many chefs love but is less energy efficient.

Size and  Footprint

Measure your space carefully! Consider not just the width and  depth, but also the ventilation space required around the unit. A commercial induction oven with hob like this one packs a lot of power into its footprint.

Electrical Requirements

Always check if your kitchen can support the unit's power needs. High-performance models like the Opus 800 often require a 3-phase supply, which may need installation by an electrician.

Oven Capacity

Think about your menu. How many Gastronorm pans (e.g., GN 1/1) do you need to fit at once? Match the oven capacity to your peak service demands to avoid bottlenecks.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for features like removable oven bases, sealed hobs, and  stainless steel construction. The less time your team spends cleaning, the more time they spend cooking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What kind of pans do I need for this induction hob?

A: You'll need ferromagnetic pans. A simple test is to see if a magnet sticks to the base; if it does, it will work with induction.

Q: Is the oven fan-assisted?

A: Yes, it features a powerful 4kW fan-assisted convection oven for fast, even cooking results.

Q: How do you clean the glass-ceramic hob?

A: For best results, use a non-abrasive cream cleaner and  a soft cloth or scraper designed specifically for ceramic hobs once the surface has cooled.

Q: What is the GN capacity of the oven?

A: The oven has a generous capacity of 3 x 1/1 GN pans, with 5 different shelf positions for flexibility.

Q: What is the temperature range of the oven?

A: The oven's thermostat can be precisely controlled from 130°C up to 265°C.

Q: How does the automatic pan detection work?

A: The hob senses when a compatible pan is placed on a zone and  only then sends power to it. When the pan is removed, the power is cut instantly.

Q: Is this Opus 800 induction cooker suitable for a small café?

A: While it would certainly perform well, its size and  3-phase power requirement make it better suited for medium to large commercial kitchens with high-volume output.

Q: Can the oven shelves be positioned differently?

A: Absolutely. The oven comes with 3 shelves and  5 available runner positions to accommodate different dishes and  pan depths.

What Customers Are Saying

An absolute workhorse. The induction top is a dream to clean compared to our old gas hob, and  the oven is spot on every time. Highly recommended.

Sarah Jenkins – Restaurant Owner, Bath

Very powerful and  heats up incredibly quickly. It's a heavy unit, so make sure your space is ready for it, but the performance is top-notch.

Tom Clarke – Country Pub, The Cotswolds

It’s a simple but brilliant way to stop wasting electricity between tasks, making your kitchen safer and  significantly reducing your energy consumption over the year. It's a small feature that adds up to big savings.
