The PA70C is the one-arm wood-fired paella burner designed with Edu Torres (Molino Roca): a large pan, a handwheel and the authentic flavour of cooking over wood, made simple.
Designed for home cooks (terrace, garden, get-togethers) and for the bar or small restaurant that wants to offer wood-fired rice. Compact, on castors, in stainless steel with a firebrick lining: the alternative to a brick-built paella fire, with no building or masonry work.
How many people does it serve?
For a 70 cm paella pan, the largest size. Takes pans from 10 to 70 cm. Approximate figures.
- Restaurant style 10-15 people Thin layer of rice A thin layer of rice (1 to 1.5 cm). The grains stay separate, with socarrat. It is the layer chefs recommend.
- 18-20 people Up to the rivets The rice reaches the rivets that hold the handles. A medium layer: keep a closer eye on the fire.
- Up to 30 people Full pan Rice almost up to the rim. It is the maximum, for events. The rice is creamier and socarrat is harder to achieve.
In restaurants, a thin layer is the norm: around 10 to 15 servings.

The alternative to a gas paella burner on a tripod
For paella, most people use a gas paella burner on a tripod. The TopBrasa burner runs on wood and controls the heat with a handwheel.
Gas paella burner on a tripod
- The pan always stays at the same height
- Heat is set at the gas tap, without the smoky note of wood
- It has to be set up and taken down every time
TopBrasa
Wood-fired paella burner
- Handwheel: raise or lower the pan without touching the fire
- Wood fire: cooking over wood adds a smoky note
- Firebrick lining: it holds the heat
- Always ready, in stainless steel, tabletop or on a cabinet with castors
A paella pan of up to 70 cm: around 10 to 15 servings in a thin layer, 18 to 20 up to the rivets, up to 30 when the pan is full.
The alternative to a brick-built paella fire
A brick-built fire for cooking paella is built once, in one place. The TopBrasa burner runs on wood with no building or masonry work.
Brick-built paella fire
- It needs building work
- You control the fire by moving the wood
- It stays where it was built
- The height of the pan is fixed
TopBrasa
Wood-fired paella burner
- No building work: nothing to build
- Handwheel: set the height of the pan without touching the wood
- Castors: on the terrace, in the garden or at an event
- Stainless steel with a firebrick lining
You cook over wood, like traditional paella: kindling to light the fire and logs to keep the embers going.
The secret of the great rice masters, now at home
It is not just a paella burner: it is the result of years of dedication to the perfect grain. When TopBrasa joined forces with Edu Torres (Molino Roca), the goal was clear: to master the fire so the rice takes centre stage.
At home: the star of every get-together
If “just another rice dish” is not enough for you, this is your centrepiece. Forget ordinary gas burners and go back to basics.
- Authentic flavour: the smoky note of a wood fire and an even socarrat.
- Easy to master: one handwheel raises and lowers the pan; you do not need to be a professional chef.
- Design and mobility: its castors let you move it around the terrace or the garden.
For bars and small restaurants: a show, made simple
Cooking on a wood-fired paella burner in full view of your customers creates a real focal point. The PA70C lets you add wood-fired rice to your menu, with no building or masonry work.
- Full control: set the heat precisely with the handwheel.
- Professional durability: stainless steel and firebrick, built for heavy professional use.
What makes the TopBrasa burner designed with Edu Torres unique?
- Firebrick lining: the lined interior keeps the heat steady and protects the structure.
- Professional lifting system: raise or lower the pan smoothly to fry the sofrito, cook the rice, then sear it at the end for the socarrat.
- The Molino Roca seal: backed by Molino Roca, producer of an exceptional rice.
Frequently asked questions about the PA70C
Who is the PA70C paella burner for?
For home cooks who make paella at home, on the terrace or in the garden, and for bars, pubs, holiday lets and small restaurants that want to offer wood-fired rice. If you serve rice every day or for large groups, the 2-arm PA160C is a better fit.
Is the paella burner an accessory for the Basque grill or the Santa Maria grill?
No. It is an appliance in its own right, designed for paella. It is slightly larger than the Basque grill and much larger than the Santa Maria grill, so it can hold a paella pan of up to 70 cm above the embers. It is not mounted on another appliance: you buy it complete, tabletop or on a stainless steel cabinet with castors.
Is it better than a brick-built paella fire?
It is an alternative with no building or masonry work: nothing to build, it moves on castors and it is made of stainless steel. The handwheel also sets the height of the pan above the fire, which a brick-built fire cannot do.
Is it better than a gas paella burner on a tripod?
On a tripod, the pan always stays at the same height and you set the heat at the gas tap. With the TopBrasa burner, the handwheel raises or lowers the pan without touching the fire, and the firebrick lining holds the heat. It is also always ready, in stainless steel.
What size of paella pan does it take?
It takes paella pans from 10 to 70 cm in diameter.
How many people does it serve?
It depends on how full the 70 cm pan (the largest size) is: around 10 to 15 people with a thin layer of rice, 18 to 20 up to the rivets of the handles and up to 30 when the pan is full. In restaurants, a thin layer is the norm: around 10 to 15 servings. These figures are approximate.
Does it run on wood?
Yes. You cook over wood, like traditional paella: kindling to light the fire and logs to keep the embers going. The firebrick lining holds the heat.
Is it only for paella?
No. The round grill also works as a barbecue: meat, fish or vegetables over a wood fire. And because it takes pans from 10 to 70 cm, you can use whichever pan you need each day. On the 2-arm models, you can cook a paella and food on the grill at the same time.
Wood or gas: which is better for paella?
Over wood, the paella takes on a smoky note and the heat of the embers wraps around the pan; with gas, you set the heat at the tap, without that smoky note. The TopBrasa burner cooks over wood and controls the heat with a handwheel that raises or lowers the pan, without touching the fire.
What are its dimensions? Will it fit on a terrace?
716 × 790 × 1,375 mm (width × depth × height). It sits on heavy-duty castors so it is easy to move.
How much does the PA70C cost?
The PA70C costs €3,300 + VAT. VAT and delivery not included.
What is the difference from the PA160C?
The PA70C has one arm and cooks one paella at a time. The PA160C has two independently adjustable arms: two paellas at the same time, or a paella and food on the grill. It is designed for restaurants that serve rice every day and for caterers.
What is the cabinet on the cabinet version?
It is the stainless steel base unit, with doors and castors, that the burner sits on (PA70C and PA160C). The tabletop version (PA70 and PA160) has no cabinet: it sits on a stable, suitable surface.
Is delivery included in the price?
No. Prices are shown excluding VAT, and delivery is not included. Request a quote to find out the delivery cost to your address.
Is the paella pan included?
No, the paella pan is not included: use your own, from 10 to 70 cm in diameter.
