Take note!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Discovering the many advantages of blast chillers <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>blast chiller or rapid cooling system for food<\/strong> is an essential piece of equipment in an industrial kitchen.<strong> Quick freezing<\/strong> has a number of advantages in comparison to traditional cooling processes. One of the main characteristics of blast chillers is that they enable the internal temperature of recently cooked food to be lowered in <strong>less than two hours<\/strong>, thus avoiding the spread of bacteria and also maintaining the product&#8217;s optimum conditions (colour, texture, flavour, smell&#8230;).<\/p>\n<p>The quick freezing process achieved with this industrial equipment results in the formation of micro-crystals inside the food, an aspect which helps to <strong>conserve the quality and ensure the safety of all types of food.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fagorprofessional.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Abatidor-temperatura-1.png\" alt=\"Abatidor temperatura 1\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fagorprofessional.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Abatidor-temperatura-1.png\" alt=\"Abatidor temperatura 1\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">The Fagor Professional blast chillers, both for refrigeration (where the temperature of the food is lowered from +<\/span><strong style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">65 \u00b0C to +3 \u00b0C in less than 90 minutes<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">) and for mixed service (refrigeration or freezing, from <\/span><strong style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">+ 65 \u00b0C to -18 \u00b0C in less than 4 hours<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">), range from the small tabletop appliance for 3 trays, to large blast chilling cells able to take the 20-level GN-2\/1 container trolleys from our ovens.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Some of the main features of the <strong>blast chiller and blast chiller freezer<\/strong> (mild cycle and hard cycle) are described below:<\/p>\n<p>1. <strong>Blast chiller freezing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.1 Mild cycle (standard) \u2013 240<\/p>\n<p>This cycle freezes the product uniformly, and is therefore suitable for <strong>food that must not be subjected to sudden changes in temperature, or food which has been prepared using different ingredients.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.2 Hard cycle (intensive) \u2013 240<\/p>\n<p>This cycle is ideal for <strong>freezing semi-finished meals or semi-prepared dishes.<\/strong> It is also suitable for raw food. In addition, it allows a stock of frozen products to be kept for long periods of time, for use over the year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Blast chiller cooling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2.1 Mild cycle (standard) \u2013 90<\/p>\n<p>This cycle is suitable for<strong> mild, light or thin food of a limited size and volume.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2.2 Hard cycle (intensive) \u2013 90<\/p>\n<p>This is suitable for <strong>high density or thick foods, and for preparing canned or bottled food.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lastly, it should be noted that the correct use of the blast chiller in combination with the Advance ovens by Fagor Professional (Cook &amp; Chill System by Fagor) helps to reduce waste, save time, increase earnings and produce a flavoursome product, thus serving to boost the profitability of the business.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fagorprofessional.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Abatidor-temperatura-2.png\" alt=\"Abatidor temperatura 2\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fagorprofessional.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Abatidor-temperatura-2.png\" alt=\"Abatidor temperatura 2\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Freezing is a traditional method of food conservation.
