Investing in professional cook equipment is a necessity for catering and hospitality businesses. Depending on the nature of your enterprise, be it a bakery, a restaurant or a school, your typical workload will determine exactly what kind of mixer you need. At ChefQuip we supply different types of professional mixers for cooks, together with helpful accessories and adaptations to increase productivity. Professional cooks trust in the quality of our mixers. They are robust, heavy-duty machines, leading to increased efficiency, a boost in customer satisfaction and reduced maintenance bills!
The Right Cooks’ Professional Stand Mixer
Mixing appliances are at the heart of professional kitchens, so choosing the right mixer for your business is vital. The best starting point is to consider your primary product or products. Do you make specific food items like bread, pastries, cakes or pizzas. Or are you more of an all-rounder, preparing four-course meals on a regular basis. The size of your professional kitchen is also paramount. Are you a niche, specialist caterer, or do you prepare diverse foods on a large-scale. For example, this could be relevant if you run a kitchen in a hotel, a hospital, a canteen or a sizable restaurant.
Which Type of Professional Mixer?
Professional cooks know that using a quality mixer greatly assists in achieving excellent standards and consistency. It will also speed-up operations and result in less labour intensive practices. This element cannot be underestimated, and is key to a well-run, profitable venture. The two main types of cooks’ professional stand mixers are spiral mixers and planetary mixers.
Professional Spiral Stand Mixer
A professional spiral mixer is the ideal machine for making dough. As such, the spiral mixer is the ultimate machine for bakeries, pizzerias and cafes. We strongly recommend using this type of cooks’ professional stand mixer for pie crust dough, bread dough, scones, cookies and cake fillings. We stock machines in a range of capacities to suit your volumes and work space. They begin with our 20 litre models, perfect for artisan bakeries, and increase up to our substantial 60 litre units.
Professional Planetary Stand Mixer
If your output is more varied, a cooks’ professional multi-function stand mixer is what you need. One of our planetary mixers fits this description perfectly. Its multi-purpose attachment hub allows the user to add optional attachments, and complete a variety of different tasks. For instance, with the cooks’ professional whisk attachment, you can whip up meringues, cream and even eggs. With other add-ons, multiple functions are possible. A dough hook enables you to make dough for bread, albeit in smaller quantities than a spiral mixer. Use our flat beater attachment to create perfect batter. Our vegetable preparation attachment will slice, chop and dice to your heart’s content. And our mincer tool will grind meat and mince fruit with ease. It really is the most versatile mixer available. We offer a wide range of sizes, from our smallest 5 litre mixer, up to our 80 litre capacity. Whatever you need, we have a professional mixer to suit your requirements.
