  • Pros: The anodised coating is a real workhorse, preventing sticking without needing extra oil.
  • Cons: Its specific design for CiBO+ ovens means it isn't a universal fit.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

"The Corner Slice," a popular deli in central Leeds, needed to reduce their lunchtime queues without compromising on the quality of their signature toasted sandwiches. They integrated the Lincat CiBO+ Boosted Panini Press into their existing CiBO+ oven workflow.

"It slotted straight in and  immediately made a difference. We're getting those perfect grill marks every time, and  the speed is incredible. Our customers have noticed how much quicker they're getting their food, and  the kitchen staff love how easy it is to clean at the end of a long day."

Samuel Jones – Owner

The change resulted in a measurable 30% reduction in average customer wait times during their peak 12-2pm lunch period.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure your CiBO+ oven is switched off and  completely cool before installation.
  • Simply slide the panini press into the oven cavity, ensuring it sits flat and  securely.
  • There are no wires or plugs; it's designed to absorb heat directly from the oven.
  • Before first use, it's a good idea to wipe it down with a damp cloth.

Keeping It Going

  • Always allow the press to cool down fully before attempting to remove or clean it.
  • Lift the press out of the oven to clean it separately.
  • Use warm, soapy water and  a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals.
  • Ensure the press is completely dry before placing it back inside the oven.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Panini Press

Not sure what to look for? Here are a few pointers to help you find the perfect commercial panini press for your business.

Plate Material

Anodised aluminium or cast iron are best. They offer excellent heat retention and  durability, which is crucial for consistent results and  a long lifespan in a commercial setting.

Size & Capacity

Consider your counter space and  typical order volume. A compact Lincat countertop panini press is great for smaller sites, while larger kitchens might need a bigger unit.

Heat-Up Time

In a fast-paced environment, every second counts. Look for models known for their rapid heat-up, like this high speed panini grill, to minimise waiting time for staff and  customers.

Plate Surface

Do you want smooth or ribbed plates? Ribbed plates, like on this model, create those classic, appealing grill lines that customers expect on a panini.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for features like removable drip trays and  non-stick surfaces. An easy-to-clean grill saves valuable time and  ensures better hygiene.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this a standalone electric panini press?

Q: Can I cook other foods besides paninis on it?

A: Absolutely! It’s great for toasted wraps, quesadillas, focaccia, and  even grilling vegetables or halloumi within the CiBO+ oven.

Q: What are the plates made of?

A: The press is made from high-quality aluminium with a durable anodised coating, which provides excellent non-stick properties and  even heat distribution.

Q: How do I clean the press?

A: Once it's completely cool, you can lift it out of the oven. Clean it with warm soapy water and  a soft cloth. Avoid using metal scrapers or abrasive pads.

Q: Does it leave grill marks on the food?

A: Yes, it is designed to leave those classic, sharp diagonal grill lines that make paninis look so appealing.

Q: Will this fit in any other brand of oven?

A: It has been specifically engineered for the dimensions and  heating profile of the Lincat CiBO+ series, so we cannot guarantee it will fit or perform correctly in other ovens.

Q: Is it heavy to lift in and  out?

A: No, it weighs only 1.8kg, making it very lightweight and  easy for any staff member to handle safely for cleaning.

Q: What does the 'boosted' part refer to?

Why Anodised Plates Make All the Difference

Ever used a cheap non-stick pan only for the coating to start flaking off after a few months? That's what anodised aluminium is designed to prevent. Think of anodising as giving the aluminium a super-tough, built-in suit of armour. Through an electrochemical process, the surface of the metal is made incredibly hard, durable, and  corrosion-resistant. This means the Lincat CiBO+ panini grill doesn't just have a coating applied on top; its non-stick, easy-clean properties are part of the metal itself. For you, that translates to a press that won't scratch easily, will last for ages in a demanding kitchen, and  will release food cleanly without needing loads of oil, time after time.
