Josper grill HJA-PLUS--L175HC

Josper HJA-PLUS-L175-HC is the flagship model in the HJA-PLUS Class A range, designed for high-capacity professional operations that demand performance, efficiency, safety and aesthetics in a single, perfectly engineered appliance. This model combines the classic taste of charcoal grilling with innovative technical features that reflect the latest requirements of modern gastronomy.

The HC version comes without a stand and features a top closable warming box (GN box). This top compartment is used for warming ingredients before placing them on the grill, resting meat after cooking, or keeping finished dishes at the optimal serving temperature. Thanks to its design, it can also be used for low-temperature cooking, similar to a holding cabinet – significantly extending the appliance's functional use during peak service.

The model is equipped with a modernised hydraulic self-closing door system, which closes quietly and smoothly with a gentle motion, significantly making the chef's work easier. New upper and lower ventilation openings ensure efficient air flow, more precise temperature control and easier cleaning. Its equipment also includes an improved filter for sparks and ash and a reinforced Firebreak, which cools the outgoing smoke and meets even the strictest safety standards.

Double side walls provide exceptional thermal insulation – the internal temperature remains stable, while the grill's outer casing stays cooler even at maximum performance. This allows it to be used safely even in central kitchens or open gastronomic operations with a high level of staff movement.

Josper HJA-PLUS-L175-HC runs exclusively on 100% charcoal. It reaches an operating temperature of 300–350 °C in approximately 35 minutes and, on a single load of charcoal, lasts up to 9 hours of continuous operation. Daily charcoal consumption is 16–20 kg, while the appliance can prepare up to 175 servings per hour. This makes it an ideal solution for top restaurants, hotel kitchens, event venues and catering operations with extreme turnover.

The oven dimensions are 104 × 117 × 104 cm, the grilling surface measures 76 × 76 cm, and the height with a stand corresponds to a comfortable working standard. The grill is available in various colour variants, allowing it to be matched to the kitchen's design. Its construction from first-class heat-resistant steel alloys and precise manufacturing guarantee a lifespan of over 30 years, even under intensive daily use.

Installation is easy and requires no special connections – the grill is placed under a professional extractor hood. The minimum extraction duct diameter is 30 cm and the recommended ventilation output for this model is 3500 m³/h, ensuring efficient and safe operation even at full load.

Like other Josper models, the HJA-PLUS-L175-HC is a popular choice among world-class chefs – its users include René Redzepi, Ferran Adrià, Gordon Ramsay, Alex Atala, Martín Berasategui or Joël Robuchon. This model embodies the combination of traditional flavour, modern performance and culinary precision that defines every top professional kitchen.
