The Fontana Hotellerie pasta cooking basket is available in four standard Gastronorm formats: GN 1/1 (488 × 298 × 230 mm h), GN 1/2 (296 × 240 × 230 mm h), GN 1/3 (287 × 230 × 163 mm h), and GN 1/6 (164 × 230 × 143 mm h), to fit any column pasta cooker and professional kitchen tank.

Is the basket compatible with standard column pasta cookers?

Yes. The basket is designed to Gastronorm formats (GN 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/6), the international standard adopted by major column pasta cookers and professional ho.re.ca. kitchen equipment, guaranteeing direct insertion without adapters.

What material is used and why is it suitable for professional use?

The basket is made of AISI 304 stainless steel, the 18/10 steel reference for professional kitchens: resistant to corrosion, high temperatures, and intensive daily use. The smooth surface facilitates cleaning and sanitisation in compliance with HACCP protocols.

Is the pasta cooking basket dishwasher safe?

AISI 304 stainless steel is compatible with professional dishwashing. For maximum durability, it is recommended to avoid highly chlorinated detergents and to dry the basket after washing.

The GN 1/1 format (488 × 298 × 230 mm h) is suitable for large production volumes, ideal for high-traffic restaurants and canteens. The GN 1/3 format (287 × 230 × 163 mm h) is instead designed for controlled portions and à la carte service, where reduced quantities are managed with precision.
