It also has a mechanism preventing burning and the frymaster features a fat quality control function. The oil used is the special Prep Supreme selected from the highest quality materials, water resistant oxidation, without trans fats and hydrogenation, and reduced quantity of saturated fats. Frymaster is the perfect master of the crispy golden crust like the one in the quinoa or spinach balls, Greek style fried marrows, squids and fillets.
Merrychef Oven
This little oven makes a big difference in the kitchen. It combines hot air with a ventilator and is used for speeding up the process of baking bread and various pastries. The aromatic ciabatta, tasty burger bread, crispy tortillas or the chocolate soufflé – they all owe their quality to this high-speed oven accelerating the process 15 times.
Double sided electronic Express Grill
Our Express Grill is used to cook our most tasty dishes. Because of this grill it only takes a couple of minutes for our fresh meat and vegetables to get a perfect outer crust combined with a juicy inside without wasting their precious nutritious values. Also, by using this machine, there is no need for advance processing. Our new arrival cuts the baking time in half owing this to its technology and the two-sided product processing.
Alto-Shaam Cook & Hold
Priceless equipment that preserves protein in food and keeps food from drying out or getting cold. Alto-Shaam is used to maintain the temperature of specific products after cooking for a short time (max. 10 minutes). This is the secret behind the crispy crusts, the soft cores of fried potatoes and the perfect taste of baked vegetables. Alto Shaam offers humidity controls to keep the natural moisture in the food and, simultaneously, it keeps fried food from softening. They are used mainly in rush hours and allow for preparing several portions at a time served in the next 5 to 10 minutes.
Bain-Marie

This equipment features a fully automated and integrated state-of-the-art heating or cooling systems maintaining fixed temperatures without stressing food. Bain-Marie comes with a large variation in the selection of temperature equally distributed over food.
