Prior to purchasing a convection oven, first evaluate the menu. This is because there are different types of convection ovens suitable for specific applications, and some have more options than others. The main consideration when specifying a convection oven is determining the appropriate size necessary for the type and amounts of food the unit will produce.
Convection ovens quickly and evenly cook food using a fan to circulate dry heat at high velocities.
Cheese melters are one of the simpler pieces of equipment in a commercial kitchen. They can provide the finishing touch for cheeseburgers and other very popular menu items.
The average lifespan of a combi oven is 10 to 15 years, depending on kitchen conditions and use.
These units are multifaceted but also an investment; operators using a combi oven solely as an oven or a steamer should purchase a traditional convection oven or steamer as these units are not as pricey and require less maintenance than a combi oven.
Combi Ovens are multipurpose cooking tools with numerous functions, such as smoking, roasting, frying, steaming and baking.
