The Mealstream 501 oven offers operators the flexibility of three heating functions; microwave
only, convection only, and combination cooking.
Combination cooking enables high quality results to be achieved in a fraction of the time
taken by conventional cooking, particularly when baking, browning, roasting, grilling or
producing gratinee dishes.
Once established, precise instructions for combination or convection cooking of selected
items may be programmed into the ovens memory so that they can be repeated easily
and accurately.
Multi-Stage Programming
The Mealstream 501 offers even greater flexibility by allowing multi-stage programming. This
enables the exact conditions required for quality results to be set according to the food type.
Note:
Remember convection temperature takes time to change. Do not
expect an instant response when a different temperature is activated.
A typical 3-stage program is shown. The Oven is pre-heated at 350°F. Stage 1 begins by
applying a gentle microwave power of 25% (ideal for defrosting) while the convection
temperature rises to 440°F. In Stage 2 the microwave power increases to maximum (100%).
In the final, browning stage the convection temperature is increased to 480°F with no
microwave energy applied.
This is only one example of an infinite number of possible multi-stage programs that can
be created and stored. Programs can have one, two, or three stages.
The instructions outlined in this guide are intended to
ensure the safety and long life of your Garland oven.
