Bench Top Convection Ovens

Commercial convection ovens are often used in restaurants and other food service settings for baking and roasting. 

These efficient appliances use a fan to circulate hot air evenly throughout the cooking chamber, allowing for faster cooking times and more consistent results. This is especially beneficial for baking, as it helps to ensure that items such as bread, cakes, and pastries rise evenly without any areas being over or undercooked. These portable electric ovens are also perfect for roasting, producing an even cook that your customers will certainly appreciate.

In addition to their versatile cooking capabilities, convection ovens also typically occupy a small footprint in a kitchen and don’t require a huge amount of power to function.

Overall, investing in a commercial convection oven can greatly benefit any food service establishment looking to streamline its kitchen operations.

A commercial convection oven can provide several advantages for a busy kitchen. Its ability to circulate hot air creates faster and more even cooking, allowing larger batches to be cooked simultaneously. The circulating air also helps create a crisp exterior on meats and crusts on bread and pastries. 

Convection ovens tend to be quite small and don’t require excessive power to run, making them an excellent choice for space-poor commercial kitchens.

However, some caution should be taken when using a convection oven as the circulating air can dry out delicate dishes, including custards and sauces. It is also important to note that not all recipes may require convection cooking, which is why Restaurant Equipment Online offers a broad range of other oven models, including combi steam ovens, conveyor ovens, regeneration ovens, and more. 

If you only have a convection oven available to you, your chefs must be familiar with adjusting cooking times and temperatures as needed. 

Overall, a commercial convection oven can provide benefits in efficiency and consistency for a busy kitchen.

Restaurant Equipment Online offers convection ovens in a wide range of sizes to suit the needs of all commercial kitchens.

Convection ovens are often spoken about in relation to how many GN pans they are able to fit. These trays can slide straight into the appliance for easy and efficient heating.

The Apuro Convection Oven 21Ltr, for example, is able to fit 3 x 1/2 GN pans, which is a generously sized capacity for a convection oven of this size. The Electric Convection Oven — YXD-6A/15, on the other hand, takes 4 standard GN pans per tray.

Every commercial kitchen has certain regulations it must adhere to in order to protect the safety of workers and customers.

Some commercial convection ovens will require a hood to capture smoke and steam and some will not. There are several factors that can dictate whether or not you will need to install a hood, including the regulations of your local council. Most councils state that as soon as an appliance requires more than 8kW of power, a hood is required.

If you are not sure whether such regulations apply to your commercial kitchen, please contact our team or speak to your local council to confirm if an exhaust hood will be required.

The simple answer to the question of whether a commercial convection oven requires a vent is that it depends on the model and local codes and regulations. Some models are designed to be ventless, while others may require external ventilation for safety or efficiency reasons. 

It is important for potential buyers to do their research and understand the specific needs of the oven they are considering as well as the codes and regulations that govern your kitchen. 

When it comes to commercial convection ovens, there are a few factors to consider to ensure you select a model that is appropriate for your needs.

First, think about the size and capacity you require. Do you have a big kitchen with ample space for a larger model, or will you require a compact option? Find a commercial electric oven that fits an appropriate number GN pans to promote efficiency in your kitchen.

Next, take a look at the features and functions. Does the oven have various cooking modes, such as roasting and baking? How accurate is the temperature control?
