EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
The Groen GFK-20 cooker/mixer consists of a water-jacketed kettle with a
motor-driven mixer. The 20 quart tilting kettle is equipped with electronically
controlled electric heaters for the jacket.
The kettle of models GFK-20-110V and GFK-20-220V is constructed of stainless
steel welded into one piece. The body has a reinforced rim and a butterfly-
shaped pouring lip. It is fitted with an integral water jacket. The kettle exterior
has a bright semi-deluxe finish. The kettle’s pouring height allows filling pans up
to 4 inches high on a table top.
The kettle’s internal electric heaters provide uniform heat in three stages, with
jacket temperature control over the range of 140ºF to 180ºF (60ºC to 80ºC).
In addition to the three-stage adjustable thermostat for operating control, the
unit has a high limit thermostat, as a safety feature, plus an indicator lamp and
water gauge glass, which is used to monitor kettle operation.
The Agitator fits over the agitator post inside the kettle. Mixing is controlled with
a power switch. The switch doubles as a circuit breaker for motor protection.
The agitator continuously sweeps the side and bottom of the kettle.
Electric power for the kettle and mixer is supplied through a plug-in power cord,
which is furnished with the unit.
