AU $229inc. GSTIn stock
A countertop electric bain marie that holds four dishes hot through a service. The stainless well takes two 1/3 pans and two 1/6 pans, all with lids, over a 1200 W element with a dial from 30 to 85 °C. A dry-burn cut-out with an indicator light stops the element if the water runs low, and a drain tap empties the well at the end of the night. Two extra-long ladles in the box.

Setting up
Set it on a bench with the drain tap over the edge or a bucket, fill the well with hot water to the marks, drop the pans in, turn the dial to the temperature you want and let it come up.
Four dishes, hot from open to close.
The first thing a cafe counter needs is somewhere to hold the food at temperature without cooking it further. This is that.
It is a stainless well with a 1200 W element underneath, filled with water, with the food pans sitting in the water. The thermostat runs from 30 to 85 °C, so you can hold a sauce at a gentle 60 or keep a soup just under the boil, and the water spreads the heat so nothing catches on the bottom. Two 1/3 pans and two 1/6 pans come with it, each with a lid, which is enough for a main, a side and two sauces.
A drain tap empties the well at the end of the day without lifting it. At 540 mm wide and 7.8 kg it fits the end of a bench and moves when the layout changes.

Goes with.
What this usually leaves the warehouse with.
Wet heat, not dry.
The pans sit in water, not over the element. That is the whole point of a bain marie: the water can never go above the boil, so the food can never scorch, and it holds temperature evenly across all four pans. Fill to the marks, set the dial, and the element keeps the water where you left it.
- Thermostat from 30 to 85 °C
- Water level marks inside the well
- 1200 W stainless heating tube
It looks after itself.
Run it dry by mistake and the cut-out stops the element before the well is damaged, with an indicator light to tell you why. Add water, switch off, give it a few minutes, switch on. The drain tap empties the well at close without tipping hot water over the bench, and the well wipes clean with a cloth.

Pans to suit the menu.
The standard layout is two 1/3 pans and two 1/6 pans, which suits a main, a side and two sauces. The same range comes in other layouts, so a soup counter might run three 1/3 pans and a hot food bar four 1/2 pans. Lids come with the pans.
- Pans and lids included
- Four layouts in the range
- Two extra-long ladles in the box
What it holds.
Capacity is to the brim. Serve from pans filled to two thirds so nothing spills when a lid comes off.

Questions we get asked
Can I run it without water?
No. It is a wet bain marie and the element is designed to heat water, not air. If it runs dry the cut-out stops it and the light comes on. Top up, switch off, wait a few minutes and switch back on.
Will it cook food, or only keep it warm?
It holds food at serving temperature. At 85 °C on the dial the water is hot enough to keep a soup steaming, but it is not a stove; cook first, then hold. Food should be above 60 °C when it goes in.
How much power does it draw?
1200 W, about the same as a kettle. Give it its own power point during service rather than sharing a board with a second warmer.
Can I use my own pans?
It comes with two 1/3 and two 1/6 pans with lids that suit the well. The maker does not list other pan sizes for it, so ask us before buying pans.
How do I clean it?
Drain through the tap while the water is still warm, wipe the well with a cloth and a little detergent, and wash the pans and lids. Do not put the body under a tap; the element is underneath.
