The Blast Chilling Mode
The
Blast Chilling
function allows you to quickly chill product down to
38°F (3°C)
degrees in
90 minutes
or less, provided that;
•
The total product weight matches with the
Blast Chiller Specification.
•
The initial temperature is lower or equal than
194°F (90°C).
•
The product thickness is less or equal than
2 inches (5 cm
).
•
The food is evenly distributed inside the cabinet.
•
A pre-chill initial step is done to improve the chiller performance in the heaviest
conditions.
Product temperature before and after a Chilling Cycle
While the product starting temperature depends on the cooking or finishing process which
the product went through, its target temperature at the end of the cycle is a determined
value
38°F (3°C
) and must not be changed to a higher temperature, as it must comply
with
HACCP
regulation. For example, chicken can be cooked in an oven at a temperature
of up to
390°F (200°C).
The actual core temperature will be lower than
212°F (100°C)
because of the water content. Before putting it in a refrigerator or walk-in cooler, it must
be cooled down to
38°F (3°C).
Pizza dough can have an internal temperature at the end
of its finishing process, i.e.
77°F (25°C).
But at the end of the chilling cycle its core
temperature must be
38°F (3°C)
as well.
