agree Carol Finch: I would agree with drip tray, but then what is "Tropfblech"? Can if have two removable drip trays?

agree xxxTradesca: DasTropbflech ist ein dünnes Gitterblech (gelocht), durch das die Tropfen in das Auffangbecken (schreckliches Wort hier) laufen. "Drip tray" für Tropfblech geht eigentlich nicht.
