OPERATION
Because of the special bowl and blade design of the
Robot Coupe Vertical Cutter Mixers, most operations
are completed in a matter of seconds. The operator
should pay close attention to the product as well as
the amount of time required to process. Operations
should be run on Low speed, using High speed
only when an extremely fine puree consistency is
desired.
There are two ways to run your unit. First of all,
you may run the unit continuously by filling the
bowl with food and simply letting it run until the
desired consistency has been reached. Use this
method to grind, mix, blend, puree, or emulsify.
Secondly, you may chop with your unit by pulsing
the machine.
Cut round products into halves or quarters and prep
long vegetables into 3 to 4 inch pieces. Place these
into the bowl, and using Low speed, pulse the unit on
and off quickly. Usually 4 to 5 pulses yields an evenly
mixed chopped substance.
TO CHOP
To achieve a chopped consistency for vegetables,
cheese, meats, etc. fill the bowl with the product no
more than ¾ full, or as low as two to three onions.
Small batches would require lowering the top cutting
blade. With the lid secured, and the speed selector
in Low speed, press the pulse function quickly then
release. Repeat this pulsing action, allowing the
blade to stop each time, until the desired cut is
achieved.
TO PUREE OR MIX
Fill the bowl with the product no more than ¾
full. Start the machine in Low speed and allow
to run until the product is completely reduced. If
necessary, turn the machine off and select High
speed to finish the product. It may be necessary
to add some liquids to a puree to achieve the
desired consistency. If a complete homogeneous
mixture is required for analytical testing, it may be
required to scrape the walls of the bowl one time
during processing to complete the homogeneous
mixture.
DOUGHS AND PASTRIES
Prepare doughs and pastries on Low speed only.
In many cases it may be helpful to first mix all
dry products then add the liquids. The unit should
be run continuously until the product is completely
processed. For thick doughs, such as for pizza, the
machine will form a ball of dough when the mixing
is complete. When a bowl is formed the machine
should be turned off immediately to prevent over
processing. Preparation times and all ingredients
should be noted for different recipes.
As an example: detailed process for bread dough
- The blade assembly must be set-up with two
blades only.
- Do not use the lid wiper / bowl scraper.
- Mix all ingredients except water and salt for 15
seconds on low speed,
- Stop the unit, open the lid and add water and salt
(needs about 20 seconds),
- Knead for 35 seconds on low speed*. Stop
immediately the machine when the ball is formed
to avoid any overheating of the dough.
* Approximate duration: to set according to your own recipe.
