Commercial Mixing Tools Greater Durability And Eliminates

Oct 12

Whether you're preparing pizza dough or whipping up frostings and potatoes, mixing is a key element in your kitchen's prep. Our selection of commercial mixers makes these tasks EasyMix and quicker so your staff can free up more time to devote to other food preparation duties. We carry a variety of sizes and styles including countertop, stand or floor models. The type of mixer you choose depends on the volume and types of mixes you'll be using it for.

Planetary commercial mixers offer the most versatility in a variety of kitchen applications as they include both a dough hook and a flat beater. They're a good choice for restaurants that mix a wide range of ingredients and are ideal for use in a pizzeria or bakery. Larger planetary mixers with an added spiral attachment are designed specifically for heavy dough mixing and can handle thicker, stiffer mixtures.

These models are commonly used in commercial bakeries, but can also be found in other large foodservice establishments that make a lot of bread-based items. They come equipped with a range of interchangeable mixing arms for kneading dough of different densities. The larger Gigamix mixer is designed for high-volume production. This model can process around 300 litres per batch and is usually mounted on a trolley to facilitate movement between tables.

Other commercial mixers come with multiple food processing functions built-in to speed up prep work. A slicer attachment can chop vegetables and shred cheeses for salad toppings, quick-cooking meals or pastas. A meat chopper attachment can grind or chop meat to add to sandwiches, pizzas and other foods.

Most commercial mixers are available in both gear-driven and belt systems. The gear system offers greater durability and eliminates the possibility of a drive system slip, but tends to be more expensive for repairs. The belt-driven models are less costly for maintenance, but can be more prone to belt slips and have the potential to lose power.

All of our mixers are made with high-quality stainless steel tools to ensure long-term durability and safety. They're constructed on a sturdy base that is easy to clean and hygienic in design. Some are even compatible with CIP (clean-in-place) systems to expedite cleaning procedures and reduce downtime for maintenance and repairs.

Our tote mixers allow you to blend liquids and chemicals in a standard IBC tote, reducing the need for fluid transfer waste and saving you time in getting your products into and out of storage containers. These units are also an excellent option for mixing bulk chemicals in a safe, sanitary environment.

If you're a professional or home chef, consider upgrading to a commercial grade machine for more efficient and effective mixing of your recipes. The quality and efficiency of these machines will help you save more time and money in the long run as you prepare your food quickly and with ease. You can find a great selection of quality, durable commercial mixers in our online store.
