Food should be loaded into Gastronorm pans which slide directly onto the Blast Chiller
ʼ
s
shelving system. Remember that a Blast Chiller works in a very similar way to an oven, but
in reverse. An oven puts heat into the food and a Blast Chiller take heat out. With this in
mind, some products chill faster than others and there is a possibility for some items to
freeze on the exterior if left in the Blast Chiller for too long, as they might burn on the
exterior if left in an oven for too long.

The difference between Soft and Hard Chill is the air temperature used to chill the food.
Soft chill is the equivalent of cooking at a lower temperature. This is to ensure a more even
chilling throughout the food. Hard chill uses a lower temperature and, just as cooking a
piece of meat at a higher temperature can increase the risking of burning the outside whilst
leaving the inside rare, hard chill can freeze the outside before the inside reaches 3
o
C.
