  • Set-and-Forget Reliability: The timed lifts mean no more overcooked or undercooked pasta batches.
  • Power Requirement: Needs a three-phase supply, so do check your kitchen's setup first.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

La Bella Vita, a family-run Italian eatery in Cardiff, was struggling with consistency during their frantic weekend service. Chefs were juggling pans and  timers, leading to variable pasta quality and  slower ticket times.

"The CP900 took the pressure off immediately. We load the baskets, set the timers, and  trust it to do its job perfectly. Our customers have noticed the difference, and  the kitchen is a much calmer, more efficient place."

Elena Ricci – Head Chef

Since installing the Italgi pasta cooker, they have reduced pasta-related food waste by over 90% and  can serve main courses 25% faster during peak hours.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure a qualified electrician performs the hardwired, three-phase electrical connection.
  • Connect the unit to a 1/2 inch BSP mains water supply for the automatic fill feature.
  • Position on a flat, stable, and  level surface with adequate ventilation around the unit.
  • Before its first use, run a full water heat and  drain cycle to clean the tank and  system.

Keeping It Going

  • Drain and  clean the tank daily to prevent starch and  salt build-up from affecting performance.
  • Wipe down the stainless steel exterior with a soft, damp cloth and  a suitable cleaner.
  • Regularly check that the basket lift mechanisms are moving freely and  are clear of debris.
  • Descale the tank periodically, especially in hard water areas, to maintain heating efficiency.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Pasta Boiler

Not sure what fits your kitchen best? Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the right machine.

Gas vs. Electric

Electric models like this one offer incredibly precise temperature control and  are often easier to position in a kitchen. Gas can offer faster heat-up times but requires a dedicated gas line and  certified installation.

Capacity & Footprint

Match the tank capacity (in litres) to your peak demand. This 20L model is perfect for most busy restaurants. Don't forget to measure your available space before ordering!

Manual vs. Automatic

Automatic basket lifts, a key feature of the Italgi CP900, reduce labour and  guarantee consistency, making them ideal for high-volume sites or kitchens with less-specialised staff.

Water and  Drainage

Look for models with an automatic water fill to save time during service. Also, consider how you will drain the unit at the end of the day – does it need to be positioned near a floor drain?

Material & Durability

Stainless steel is the industry standard for a reason. For pasta boilers, look for higher grades like 316 stainless steel in the tank for extra protection against corrosion from salted water.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I cook different types of pasta at the same time?

A: Absolutely. With four individual baskets and  separate timers, you can cook up to four different batches or types of pasta simultaneously, each to its own perfect cooking time.

Q: What exactly does 'automatic basket lift' do?

A: You set a timer for a basket of pasta, and when the cooking time is finished, the machine's mechanism automatically lifts that specific basket clear of the boiling water, preventing overcooking.

Q: What kind of power supply does the Italgi CP900 electric pasta cooker need?

A: It requires a 415V, three-phase electrical supply. It must be hardwired into your mains by a qualified commercial electrician.

Q: Is the water connection complicated?

A: No, it uses a standard 1/2 inch BSP connection, which is a common fitting for many commercial catering appliances.

Q: Why is marine-grade 316 stainless steel important for a pasta boiler?

A: It offers superior resistance to corrosion, especially from the salt that is essential for cooking pasta. This significantly extends the machine's lifespan and  reliability.

Q: How much pasta can this machine handle?

A: The 20-litre tank and  four separate baskets are designed to handle the high-demand services of a busy commercial restaurant or catering operation.

Q: Does the unit need to be manually filled with water?

A: No, it features a convenient automatic water fill system to maintain the correct level. However, it can also be filled manually if required.

Q: How easy is this automatic pasta cooker for restaurants to clean?

A: Very easy. The all-stainless steel construction, removable baskets, and  a front-mounted drain tap make daily cleaning straightforward.

Choosing an Italgi pasta cooker is an investment in culinary precision and  operational peace of mind. For decades, this Italian brand has specialised in creating pasta equipment that truly understands the rhythm and  demands of a professional kitchen. The CP900 isn't just a boiler; it's a complete system designed to de-skill a crucial process, empowering any member of your team to produce consistently perfect pasta.

It’s a piece of specialist Italian engineering built not just to last, but to make your kitchen smarter, calmer, and  more profitable.

How an Automatic Water Fill System Keeps You Cooking

Ever had a chef get distracted during a busy service and  let a pot boil dry? The Italgi CP900’s automatic water fill system is designed to prevent just that. A clever sensor inside the tank constantly monitors the water level. When it drops below the optimal point due to evaporation, the system automatically draws more water from your mains connection to top it up.

Think of it like a self-filling kettle that never runs low. This simple but brilliant feature means the water is always at the right level and  temperature, ready for the next batch. It stops the heating elements from being exposed, prevents service from grinding to a halt, and  ensures your team can focus on plating up, not watching water levels.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Italian Restaurants: Serve consistently perfect pasta for every single dish, from carbonara to bolognese, even during the evening rush.
  • Contract Caterers: Easily manage large-batch pasta cooking for events, functions, and  workplace canteens with absolute precision.
  • Hotel Kitchens: Deliver top-quality pasta dishes for your restaurant, bar menu, or room service without dedicating a full-time chef.
  • Busy Delicatessens & Food Halls: Add a popular and  highly profitable hot pasta station to your offering with minimal staff training.
