The Epicure 12 Series by ARC (Sabaf Group) features a new burner. It has the merit of bringing professional standards into the home with maximum flexibility. Thanks to its horizontal venturi, this new product is able to fit into small spaces, allowing a built-in countertop or domestic kitchen to be equipped with an unusual component. In the realisation of the series, in terms of materials ARC opted for cast iron for the burner body and brass for the flame spreader. Both are suitable for intensive and long-lasting use. At the same time, the part underneath consists of a die-cast aluminium elbow and a brass Venturi tube.
Cook like a chef
The Epicure 12 Series burners are elegant in shape and developed for direct mounting on the worktop. They are available in different sizes and power ratings: ‘C’ up to 4.0 Kw, ‘D’ up to 6.0 Kw, ‘E’ up to 7.5 Kw. In each case, very high efficiency and above all performance worthy of a professional chef’s kitchen are guaranteed. This means that the salient ingredients of ARC burners are, yes, attractive aesthetics. But also a high level of performance, to which is added a valuable customisation option. In fact, different finishes and surface treatment combinations are available: cast iron body and brass spreader; enamelled/black treated cast iron body and brass spreader; enamelled/black treated cast iron body and brass spreader; enamelled/black treated cast iron body and enamelled/black treated brass spreader.
By virtue of these characteristics, Epicure Series 12 burners are also appreciated for their details. In fact, combining ‘made-to-measure’ craftsmanship with the most sophisticated engineering, they promise to make a difference in the home, transforming every family cooking experience into art. Of course, a product like Epicure also appeals to the professional kitchen world. Particularly with the vertical venturi version, which is suitable for kitchens where space under the countertop is at a premium.
The restaurant at home
In addition to being the home hearth, the kitchen has now even turned into a laboratory. Here the latest and most advanced technologies can be tested. Alongside digital devices, remote controls and Bluetooth, there are now other components that are able to bring great added value. When we talk about gas cookers, we obviously refer to burners, an indispensable element, as proven by Made in Italy engineering. Here again we find ARC among the best performers, thanks to its sophisticated Series 41 HE burners.
The Series 41 HE burners with spark plug or pilot flame are designed for application in professional, semi-professional and high-end domestic gas cookers where particularly high performance is required. Made entirely of brass, they are suitable for heavy and long-lasting use. Very elegant in shape and appearance, these burners combine professional performance with small dimensions to satisfy lovers of good cooking. The shape of the flame spreaders favours the concentration of heat in the centre of the pan. Developed for direct mounting on the worktop, they simplify installation and facilitate cleaning while ensuring maximum hygiene. The double overlapping flame, in addition to the elegant visual effect, allows high output to be achieved with reduced burner footprint. Again, all the features are there to bring home restaurant performance.
