OVENS, COMBINATION
If you are in the market for versatile cooking equipment that offers high- production capabilities, produces high-quality results across a broad spectrum of menu items, makes efficient use of kitchen space and reduces energy operating costs — look no further than the latest generation of gas-fired combination ovens.
The gas combination oven is the result of blending several cooking technologies into one versatile piece of equipment. It uses the air movement of forced convection ovens, the steam heat transfer system of pressureless steamers, and the dry heat of conventional gas ovens.
The combination oven provides a choice of three primary cooking functions within a single oven cavity. In the convection mode, food is prepared through the rapid circulation of hot air – an effective choice for foods requiring short cook times or extensive browning such as hamburgers, steaks, baked goods and au gratin foods. In the steam mode, a combination oven functions as a fan-forced pressureless gas compartment steamer suitable for vegetables, seafood and most foods that can be poached or boiled.
The combi mode provides the real performance payoff and is typically the most commonly used cook mode. Combining hot air and “superheated steam” the combi mode can provide even faster cook times and increase meat product yields due to more moisture retention and less shrinkage. The combi mode is also used for many baked goods. Finished products come out fluffy and light, with a golden brown crust. The combination mode is also used for rethermalization of cook-chill and vendor prepared foods.
The popularity of the iPod and iPad, with their image-driven, touch-and-flick user interface, is having an impact on foodservice equipment design. With their history of innovation, it is no surprise that combination ovens are leading this charge. The North American combi oven market is very competitive and a bevy of manufacturers have been busy introducing new control technology designed to make their ovens more user-friendly and simple to operate.
Combis have always relied on sophisticated process controllers (PCs) to manage multiple cooking modes, calculate compartment humidity levels and perform diagnostic chores. Now, however, they have expanded their capabilities – adding cook-and-hold functions, rethermalizing, advanced humidity control, and more. In addition, most combi oven manufacturers have expanded menu or cook setting memory capabilities plus compartment cleaning and deliming. Most combination oven manufacturers offer multiple control package options, from the basic to sophisticated programmable and preprogrammable cooking systems.
Gas combination ovens are available in three general sizes. Half-size models typically handle up to 10 steam pans or 10 half-size bake pans. Full- size units accommodate 24 full-size steam pans or 12 full-size bake or sheet pans. Roll-in models can handle up to 40 steam pans or 20 full-size bake pans; they use product transport carts that are loaded and then rolled into the oven for cooking.
