A gas barbecue with a difference at Towler & Staines.

Towler & Staines the Calor Gas Principal Dealers in Keighley and Bradford are now offering a gas barbecue with a difference. It can be used as a traditional gas barbecue or as an entirely rotisserie unit. Many chefs prefer the rotisserie method.

The unique BarbeSkew has a number of rotisserie functions which ensures that the food cooks more evenly and thoroughly with the advantage that the food is constantly self basting leaving the food more moist,tender and succulent. It is hands free because the BarbeSkew is constantly turning the food. All the kebabs/chicken/beef-burgers rotate automatically by 2 separate motors ensuring the food is cooked evenly without burning.

The gas BarbeSkew has 9 x small skewers, 2 x cage skewers, 1 x traditional half grill,1 x half griddle plate, 1 long skewer with meat clamp, 2 x UK transformers and all accessories have dishwasher friendly handles.

How does Calor Gas work? Towler & Staines have the answer.

Calor Gas and Calor Propane are liquified petroleum gas (LPG) which is obtained directly from the North Sea or during petrol refining from crude oil.

LPG can be stored as a liquid taking up about two hundred times less space than it would as a gas.
It is stored and delivered in cylinders for a huge variety of uses in almost any location.

Butane and propane in use are effectively the same but as a liquid Calor propane has a lower boiling point which means it becomes a gas at a lower temperature and needs to be stored under higher pressure.

In the cylinder the gas is in liquid form exerting an approximate pressure of 1.72 bar at 15 degrees C
and 6.90 bar at 15 degrees C for propane. This means the correct regulator must be used : it is not possible to change from one fuel source to the other without also changing the regulator.

Calor Propane should never be stored or used indoors at a residence because it is stored under higher pressure.

The chart shows how gas pressure varies with the external temperature. The diagram shows the change from liquid to gas when the pressure is reduced to normal ie the gas valve is open.

If you need to know more the staff at Towler & Staines will be happy to help you.
