⚠ Three-phase 400V required: this Série 650 pasta cooker needs a three-phase 400V supply. Check your panel before ordering.
The Série 650 single-tank pasta cooker is the first mid-range model of the pasta-cooker range. With an 18.5-litre tank and 5.67kW of power, it clearly outsizes the entry level (3kW) with a capacity dimensioned for a regular restaurant service. At €2,880 excl. VAT, it targets establishments that have outgrown an entry cooker and want a reliable mid-range unit for a daily service of 40 to 70 covers.
18.5 Litres and 5.67kW: Why These Specs Change the Service
- 18.5L = 8–10 portions per pass — cooks 800g–1kg of dry pasta at once; in continuous service, 20–30 portions/hour
- 5.67kW = fast recovery — when 800g of cold pasta hits the bath, the temperature drops; 5.67kW brings it back twice as fast as a 3kW unit
- 650mm profile — the 650mm depth gives more heated base area, for more even heat distribution
- 15kg — a balance of robustness and handling for a fixed countertop unit
Who Is the Série 650 Single For?
- 40–70 cover restaurant with daily pasta — the 18.5L tank covers this volume; 5.67kW keeps the pace
- Outgrowing the entry level — the natural step up from a 3kW cooker with recovery bottlenecks
- Brasserie or bistro with a daily pasta dish — fresh tagliatelle, gnocchi, linguine served lunch and dinner

How a Pasta Cooker Works
A pasta cooker is a heated water bath fitted with perforated baskets. You portion the pasta into a basket, lower it into the boiling water, and lift it out to drain the instant cooking is done — no pouring a heavy pot of boiling water through a colander. Each basket cooks and drains its own portion, so orders are served at an even, controlled doneness throughout the service. A drain tap empties the tank at the end of service without handling boiling water by hand.
Single or Double Tank: Which Configuration
A single-tank cooker has one water bath — ideal for a focused pasta offer cooked one type at a time. A double-tank cooker has two independent baths, each with its own heating, which unlocks three things: cooking two pasta types at once (different cooking times handled in parallel), relay service (one tank cooking while the other holds), and allergen separation (a dedicated tank for gluten-free pasta, for simpler HACCP traceability). Choose single for steady moderate volume, double for high volume or a varied pasta menu.
Stainless Steel, Water Management and HACCP
The tank and body are food-grade stainless steel. The integrated drain tap empties the bath cleanly; descale the tank regularly so heat transfer stays efficient and the water stays clean. Smooth stainless surfaces wipe down between services and slot straight into your HACCP cleaning plan. Single-tank 3kW models connect to a standard 230V socket; higher-power and double-tank models require a three-phase 400V supply — see the specifications and check your installation before ordering.
