A combi oven is a very common piece of equipment in the commercial kitchen. It's also one of the most versatile pieces of equipment! As the name suggests, it's able to carry out a combination of functions all within the same oven unit. It can carry out steam cooking, convection cooking or even a mix of both at the same time. Here are some of the main benefits of having a combi oven and why we enjoy carrying out commercial kitchen equipment maintenance on them!
Commercial kitchen equipment maintenance
- Versatile
Combi ovens can be very precisely controlled in terms of both moisture and heat. This means it's the ideal piece of commercial kitchen equipment. You're able to cook, steam, roast, grill, bake, fry and much more in one simple piece of equipment!
- Making the most of space
Commercial kitchens tend to be small, cramped places that don’t usually have any extra space. In fact, many restaurants and catering companies often have to make choices on what types of equipment they can use, which has an effect on the menu. With a combi oven, you can use a huge amount of different cooking styles which opens up the menu choices.
- Easy to use
With the amount of innovative combi ovens that are available on the market today, you can cook items with just the touch of a pre programmed button! So if you're looking to fry some bacon, grill some chicken breasts or bake some pastries? Just put them in the oven, press a button and sit back and watch it cook.
- Yield
Since you can steam cook in a combi oven, it means you can get a greater yield when cooking meats and proteins. Standard ovens tend to remove moisture which means you can't cook certain food in the same way.
