The Axis AX-GPC-2 is a double-tank gas pasta cooker for restaurants and institutional kitchens. Each tank holds 10.56 gallons (40 L), and the two burners together are rated at 100,000 Btu/hr. It can cook fresh or dry pasta or rethermalize pre-cooked product.
The inner tanks are one-piece, deep drawn AISI 316 stainless steel, which resists corrosion from salt water, with rounded edges for easier cleaning. The rest of the unit is heavy-duty stainless steel. The burners concentrate heat at the rear to create a convective flow of water, which removes the need for stirring. Ignition is piezo-electric with a safety thermocouple shutoff, and the double tank unit has individual controls for gas, water and drain.
It includes six stainless steel mesh baskets per tank with ergonomic handles, a front drain tray, a starch skimming drain, an overflow area, a 1" full port drain valve and 6" adjustable stainless steel legs. The cooker ships ready for natural gas, with an LP conversion kit included. Optional tank covers, casters, pressure regulator, drain water tempering kit and alternate baskets are available.
