Barbecue stoves vesta and their features
The thoughtful constructive solution of vesta barbecues allows users to simultaneously receive all the advantages of the oven and barbecue, moreover, the device is designed for comfortable and completely safe indoor use.
Among the most attractive characteristics of VESTA furnaces it should be noted:
- the ability to obtain excellent results when processing different products,
- 30% reduction in the time required to process the product (compared to an open barbecue),
- the ability to work without radiating thermal energy to the room, the temperature in the kitchen during the operation of the brazier remains comfortable for humans.
The temperature in the furnace is controlled by regulating the draft. Among the advantages of the furnace can also be attributed high temperature, about +300 C.
The temperature distribution in the furnace is uniform, the set temperature is maintained for a long period.
Those involved in cooking professionally know how important it is to put the prepared product in an oven with a sufficiently high temperature - the natural juices of the products remain inside, the caramelization process that occurs outside leads to the formation of an appetizing crust.
High temperatures reduce the heat treatment time to a minimum, thus:
- the product does not have time to lose natural minerals and vitamins,
- in the process of cooking, the dish acquires a unique taste,
- the productivity of the stove increases.
To operate the VESTA brazier, you do not need to connect expensive electricity or natural gas, all models of stoves work on charcoal. For the manufacture of the frying chamber, steel is used that has a high heat resistance index 17G1S with a thickness of 6 mm, or heat-resistant stainless steel is used.
The presence of an internal thermal insulation system eliminates the strong heating of the housing from the outside and makes it possible to obtain savings on coal.
The grill in VESTA ovens can be installed in five different positions.
All VESTA oven models are equipped with:
- interchangeable protective screens designed to protect the walls from overheating,
- built-in arrester,
- interchangeable grate,
- upper and lower air draft regulators,
- ash drawer,
- a thermometer.
The kit includes:
- grill
- semi-finished overturning tongs,
- poker for moving coals.
Of the optional accessories for the brazier, the following are usually offered:
- stand,
- second grill
- a heat cabinet, which is placed above the stove,
- replaceable protective screen,
- starter, with the help of which the coal is fired,
- grate.
The installation of the brazier should be done with a connection to a separate exhaust system or with the installation of a spark arrester and a water curtain. The duration of operation of the furnace on one tab of coal depends on the correctness of the operator and the loading of the furnace.

Overview of VESTA barbecue oven models
As mentioned above, the VESTA BBQ is a professional-level cooking appliance that can be installed and operated indoors. VESTA products very successfully combine the advantages inherent in barbecues and closed ovens. They can be installed in cafes located in recreation areas, far from settlements - the operation of the furnaces will not require the connection of gas or electricity to them. It is much easier to provide a coal company with food.
In order to have a clearer picture of the ovens, it should be remembered that the size information of their frying grate is placed directly in the name of the model, for example, the VESTA 45 brazier has a frying grate with an area of \u200b\u200b45 square meters. decimetres. The fact that the frying chamber of the model is made of stainless steel 6 mm thick will be indicated by the letter N present in the name, if it is not, then the model is made of black heat-resistant steel 6 mm thick.
VESTA 38
Manufacturers offer four varieties of VESTA barbecue furnaces.
Barbecue oven VESTA 38 - this model is the most compact, it is recommended to use it in a summer house or in a private country house. It will be especially useful if the owners of the house prefer to cook tasty and healthy food, as well as treat their guests with original dishes prepared on charcoal. The installation of the VESTA barbecue grill can also be carried out in small catering points, for example, in a cafe, where the simultaneous number of visitors can reach 40 people.
For more information on cooking on the vesta 38 barbecue oven, see the video:
Other models: the VESTA 25 barbecue oven and the VESTA 45 barbecue furnace are more likely to be classified as professional, their installation is economically feasible in catering establishments with a large number of seats. The dimensions of such furnaces allow the simultaneous installation of two frying grills. The installation of such furnaces is carried out on special supports; the furnaces themselves are equipped with heat shields. VESTA braziers of models 25, 45 and 50 are equipped with spark arresters with a water curtain.
VESTA 25
The VESTA 25 brazier is recommended to be installed in institutions with the number of seats in which it reaches seventy. If the furnace of this model is fully equipped, then its weight can be 220 kg. Such a furnace will consume up to 12 kg of coal per day, and the amount of output per hour will be about 60 kg. The operating temperature of the furnace is + 300 C, and its ignition time is 0.5 hours.
It is advisable to install this model in a cafe, the number of places in which is approaching a hundred. The model belongs to professional charcoal grills. The weight of the model in a complete set is about 260 kg, with a daily consumption of 12 to 16 kg of coal, the furnace can produce about 90 kg of finished products every hour. The time it takes to ignite the oven is 35 minutes.
VESTA 50
Rational use of the most powerful model of the barbecue stove involves its operation in a restaurant with a hall for 150 seats. The weight of this model in a complete set is up to 343 kg. With a consumption of 16 to 20 kg of coal per day, the furnace can produce about 110 kg of products hourly. It takes about 40 minutes to ignite the furnace, the operating temperature will be +300 C.
Transportation and installation of barbecue furnaces VESTA
The oven is packaged on a pallet made of wood, the accessories attached to it are packaged on another wooden pallet, but at the request of the buyer, the packaging can be made on one pallet, while accessories must be placed above the stove.
The oven mounted on the stand must not be transported - its center of gravity will be located too high, the risk of falling and getting damaged will increase significantly. The oven with stand can only be transported on a flat floor and over very short distances.
The furnace is unloaded using a truck crane or forklift. After delivery to the installation site, packing paper should be removed from the oven, the technical data sheet and accessories should be removed. Assembly and installation of the furnace is carried out in strict accordance with the attached instructions.
Water supply and sewage systems are also being connected - they will be required for the operation of the spark-arrestor filter. Exhaust ventilation and a chimney must be connected to the furnace without fail, fire safety rules should not be violated.
Particular attention is recommended to be paid to the first warming up - when burned out industrial oils and silicon-organic enamel components will smell and smoke. Therefore, it will be necessary to arrange the maximum possible ventilation of the room, the time of the first furnace should be at least 1 hour. Subsequent ignitions of the furnace will not produce smoke.
Maintenance and repair
Maintenance of barbecue furnaces will consist in the monthly cleaning of chimneys from soot.
The most common problems encountered during operation:
- burnout and deformation of the screen or grate, is eliminated by replacing parts,
- burnout of the paint, to eliminate the damage, you need to apply silicon-organic heat-resistant enamel type KO-868 on the damaged areas.
How to choose the best model of barbecue
By design and technical parameters, VESTA barbecue furnaces resemble a similar product manufactured by the Spaniards. Domestic furnaces are available with two modifications of the frying chamber:
- stainless steel 6 mm thick
- made of black steel of high heat resistance, thickness - the same 6 mm.
Buying a black steel product, the buyer initially wins in value. Of course, the cheaper materials led to a decrease in some properties, in particular - the service life. But if you make a more detailed analysis, you can see that a thicker metal and a high grade of its heat resistance, as well as the use of a fireproof screen and an integrated flame arrester allow the manufacturer to guarantee the service life of the VESTA furnace - at least 10 years, provided that it will be operated daily. at least 12-15 hours.
The second advantage of VESTA furnaces are metal doors. In practice, it has been proven that when used in these conditions, glass tends to reduce the degree of transparency, i.e. It becomes impossible to determine the state of products being prepared over time. In addition, the lighting from smoldering coals is very weak, and it is really difficult to make out anything - you still have to open the door. At the same time, the glass door is a source of large heat influx into the kitchen.
When choosing a brazier, you should not be led to common tales about the super characteristics of Spanish counterparts. One can come across the assertion that the wall thickness of the Spanish models supposedly equals 5 cm, if you judge sensibly and perform simple calculations, it turns out that with such a wall thickness the Model 50 furnace would weigh about 1200 kg - what kind of table would you need to install such a sample? And how much coal and time would be required to ignite? In fact, the model weighs about 320 kg, and this is with all the additional accessories.
Modern models of Spanish stoves are made of stainless steel, it is more durable and lasts longer, cast iron, which was used earlier, has the only advantage - it does not pull its products when heated.
It is believed that a high-quality furnace must withstand temperatures of the order of +1000 C. Experts say that the furnace cannot be exposed to such temperatures in any way - when burning coal (depending on quality), the furnace can warm up to a maximum of +600 +700 C, birch coal , for example, in practice it gives a temperature of +530 C, with a closed blower the temperature drops to 200 degrees. The stove cannot be hotter than coal.
However, the VESTA barbecue is equipped with a protective screen, i.e. high temperatures affect only the screen, in any case, even if the screen burns, the stove will remain intact. A burnt screen is very easy to replace, the cost of the material is not high. The screen made of black steel of 2 mm thickness can last about 2 years, of stainless steel - about 15 years. The presence of a partition in the furnace allows you to use only one half of it.
A potential weak point for burnout is the weld at the inlet of the exhaust pipe, so the developers of the furnace, as a protection for the seam, installed a flame arrester made of stainless steel with a thickness of 2 mm.
And one more tip from professionals. If you decide to buy a fireplace stove - base your choice on the study of technical specifications, recommendations of people who really use such devices. With some criticism, refer to advertising, which claims that you can get the meat of a perfect unique taste exclusively in stoves made of cast iron (or black steel or stainless steel). Think about whether you can tell the taste of a product baked in a cast iron and steel oven? If in fact you can feel any difference - opt for a device that prepares more delicious and aromatic food.
If the products on taste and aroma (and it really is) are indistinguishable, then choose a brazier with the best characteristics, more reliable, the quality of which manufacturers confirm with a guarantee for a decade.
