Three feet of heavy steel and controls you can trust to the degree: the MagiKitch'n MKE-36-ST is built for operators who want their griddle to behave exactly the same at 7 a.m. and at the end of a double. It fits busy diners, breakfast and brunch chains, cheesesteak shops and institutional kitchens that run electric equipment.
Incoloy sheathed elements clamped under the 1" thick polished plate deliver 17.1 kW, or 5.7 kW per 12-inch zone. Three solid state thermostats, each with an on/off switch, hold from 150°F – 550°F across a 35-3/4" x 24" cooking surface.
What you will notice in day-to-day use
- Three independent zones. Sear, cook and hold side by side, or shut a zone off during slow hours to save energy.
- Consistent results. Solid state thermostats working with probes embedded in the plate track the real surface temperature closely.
- Holds up to a rush. The 1" plate stores a lot of heat, so it shrugs off full loads of frozen product.
- Grease under control. A 3-1/2" spatula-wide trough and fully welded chute drain to a 3.75 gallon grease box with a splash-zone compartment.
- Built to last. Double-walled, reinforced stainless sides and a tapered back splash stand up to all-day use, with no exposed fasteners to trap grime.
Choosing your setup
Voltage: pick the voltage and phase that match your kitchen's service above. Every version is rated 17.1 kW; the amp draw per line is in the table below. The griddle is field wired; an optional 6 ft, 60 amp cord with NEMA 15-60P plug is offered by the factory for three-phase service.
| Electrical service | Amps per line |
|---|---|
| 208V, single phase | 82.2 A |
| 208V, three phase | 47.5 A |
| 240V, single phase | 71.3 A |
| 240V, three phase | 41.1 A |
The MKE-36-E offers the same griddle with electric thermostats (200°F – 550°F), and the MKE series also comes in 24", 48" and 60" widths.
