EQUIPMENT
ALL IN THE FAMILY A few of the Merrychef lineup of high-speed ovens
lunches or drive-thru traffic.
Everyone’s looking for
solutions to speed up that
pathway of customer. Enter
the high-speed oven.
“I’ve seen more and
more of these,” says Rudi
Fischbacher, associate dean
for the School of Hospitality,
Recreation and Tourism
at Humber College. “They
cook well, finish well and
give food a nice crunchiness.
They’re faster than combiovens
and very versatile.
And they’re small units, so
they integrate into the
kitchen nicely.”
From TurboChef to
Ovention to Merrychef,
these high-speed wonders
cook as quickly as a microwave
but finish with the
crispiness of a convection.
They’re programmable,
ventless (so kitchens don’t
need ventilation hoods)
and designed for pushbutton
simplicity. You
can’t burn food on them
because they cook and
release themselves on a
timer. And you can cook a
fully dressed pizza in four
minutes — an impressive
time savings compared to
the traditional 15 to 20.
In existence since
the early 1980s with the
Amana Jetwave, a flush of
rapid-cook ovens crowds
a very big market today,
everyone with their own
mousetrap. All are the
“They cook
well,
finish well
and give
food a nice
crunchiness.
They’re
faster than
combi-ovens
and very
versatile”
