Expert Review and  Insights

It’s easy to overlook something as fundamental as a baking tray, but the Lincat Invoq is a reminder of why you shouldn't. Its aluminium alloy construction isn't just for show; it conducts heat so well that you'll notice a real improvement in cooking consistency. It’s a proper bit of kit, designed for performance, not just to fill a space in the oven.

  • Pros: Heats up remarkably fast, giving a fantastic crisp finish.
  • Cons: Best washed by hand as harsh dishwasher chemicals can discolour it.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Salty Squid, a bustling seafood bistro in Padstow, Cornwall, needed to upgrade their oven trays. Their old steel pans were causing uneven cooking on their signature breaded calamari and  fish fillets, leading to inconsistencies during the busy summer season.

"We swapped to the Lincat Invoq trays and  the change was instant. The heat distribution is spot on, giving us perfectly golden, crisp fish every single time. Our customers get a better product and  the kitchen runs smoother. It's a win-win."

Laura Jennings – Head Chef

The bistro reported a 15% reduction in cooking time for their most popular fried dishes and  a noticeable improvement in food quality and  consistency.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, give the tray a quick wash in warm, soapy water and  dry it thoroughly.
  • For certain baked goods, you may wish to lightly season the pan with oil on its first use.
  • Simply slide the tray into any standard 1/1 GN compatible oven rack or trolley.
  • Ensure the tray is sitting level on the runners for completely even cooking results.

Keeping It Going

  • To maintain its finish and  performance, always hand-wash with a soft cloth or sponge.
  • Avoid using sharp metal utensils like knives or scrapers directly on the surface to prevent scratching.
  • For particularly sticky items, use baking parchment to make clean-up a breeze.
  • Stack carefully with other trays, avoiding dropping heavy items on top which could cause dents.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Pan

Not sure which GN pan is right for your kitchen? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Material Matters

Aluminium is king for baking and  roasting due to its amazing heat transfer. Stainless steel is a durable all-rounder, great for steaming and  storage, while polycarbonate is for cold prep and  display.

Get the Depth Right

Shallow trays (20-40mm) like this one are for roasting, grilling, and  baking. Deeper pans (100mm+) are what you need for holding sauces, soups, or bain-marie service.

Solid or Perforated?

Solid trays are your everyday workhorse. Perforated (with holes) are specifically for steaming vegetables or shellfish, allowing steam to circulate fully around the food.

Consider Lid Compatibility

If you plan on storing or transporting food in your GN pans, check if they have compatible lids available. Some are designed for stacking, others for a tight seal.

Check Temperature Ratings

Always ensure your chosen pan is rated for the temperatures you work with. This aluminium tray is designed for high-heat oven use, but plastic pans have much lower limits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does '1/1 GN' actually mean?

A: It refers to 'Gastronorm', a European standard size for kitchen containers. A 1/1 tray measures approximately 530 x 325mm, designed to fit standard ovens, fridges, and  trolleys.

Q: Can I use this Lincat Invoq gastronorm tray 20mm in the dishwasher?

A: We strongly recommend hand-washing. High temperatures and  harsh detergents in commercial dishwashers can cause aluminium to tarnish or discolour over time.

Q: Is this pan non-stick?

A: It has a natural finish, not a non-stick coating. However, its excellent heat properties help prevent food from sticking, and  using a little oil or baking parchment works perfectly.

Q: What's the main advantage of this over a stainless steel tray?

A: The key difference is heat conductivity. Aluminium heats up much faster and  more evenly than steel, which is crucial for achieving a perfect, crisp finish when roasting or baking.

Q: Can I use metal utensils on it?

A: It's best to use silicone, plastic, or wooden utensils to avoid scratching the surface and  prolong the life of the tray.

Q: Is this tray heavy?

A: No, at just over 1kg, it's very lightweight and  easy to handle, even when full, making it ideal for a fast-paced kitchen.

Q: Can I use it for storing food in the fridge?

A: Absolutely. It's perfectly safe for both cooking at high temperatures and  for cold storage in a refrigerator or blast chiller.

Q: Will this fit in my non-Lincat combi oven?

A: Yes, as it's a standard 1/1 Gastronorm size, it is designed to be compatible with any commercial oven that accepts 1/1 GN trays.

Why Aluminium Alloy Makes All the Difference to Your Roast

Ever wondered why some trays give you a perfectly even, golden-brown finish while others leave you with burnt corners and  a soggy middle? The secret is in the metal. The special aluminium alloy used in this Lincat tray is a superstar when it comes to conducting heat. Think of it like this: if you pour water into the middle of a steel tray, the heat spreads out slowly and  unevenly. With this aluminium alloy tray, that heat shoots across the entire surface almost instantly. This eliminates 'hot spots' and  ensures every single inch of your food is getting the same amount of heat at the same time. It's the key to achieving that desirable edge-to-edge crispiness, whether you're roasting potatoes or baking pastries.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pubs & Restaurants

    Essential for roasting meats and  vegetables with consistent, even results in their main service ovens.

  • School & Hospital Canteens

    A durable, lightweight tray for batch cooking healthier oven-baked meals for large numbers.

  • Bakeries & Cafés

    Perfect for baking scones, pastries, and  flatbreads that require a perfectly crisp, even base.

  • Mobile & Event Caterers

    The standard sizing makes it brilliant for prepping, cooking, and  transporting food efficiently.
