Countertop cooking can add another element of service and profitability to a whole range of Canadian foodservice operations. C-stores, concessions, QSRs, pizza shops, casual dining – all of these and more can benefit from a countertop cooking program.
In most situations, menu items created with countertop cooking need to be prepared fast and efficiently, without comprising on the quality and consistency. As a result, the equipment used to create these products needs to deliver on both ends of the spectrum.
The Double Batch helps foodservice operators by providing two independently-controlled, high-speed cooking cavities to maximize throughput. It is certified ventless, and does not require the use of any type of exhaust canopy. Because it is ventless, it can be used anywhere an operator has a sufficient power supply.
Inside the unit, impinged air circulates at speeds of up to 80 km per hour to create high heat transfer rates and reduced cook times. Here’s a brief list of potential cook times that shows the power of the Double Batch.
Saving space is another great aspect of the Double Batch. The types of operations that truly benefit from a Double Batch are so often limited by space. With a footprint that’s only 704 mm by 805 mm, this unit provides space-saving capabilities while maximizing the potential of the space it occupies.
Finally, the Double Batch uses less energy. A variable speed blower, oscillating racks, and a catalytic converter result in minimal energy input while preserving higher food quality. Because the unit is ventless, it also opens up the possibility of using it in more locations.
