Whether you need to fry, poach or pressure cook, you can streamline your cooking processes with a Bratt Pan.
In this guide, we'll look at the benefits of a commercial Bratt Pan in greater detail and explain the intelligent alternatives that could further simplify your cooking processes.
The Bratt Pan is a powerful and versatile appliance that can perform eight different cooking functions.
Furthermore, they are designed to cook huge volumes of food in one go - either to serve straight away or to be prepared later, using a deep rectangular pan heated by either gas or electricity.
These units are not found in domestic kitchens but are used in large catering establishments such as schools, hospitals and as staff canteen kitchen equipment.
Multifunctionality. With eight different cooking functions available, it is a very versatile piece of equipment. It is easy to switch between cooking methods and can also be combined to cook one food type in multiple ways.
Faster cooking. They are perfect if you need to cook or prepare large quantities of food. Typically, a Bratt Pans capacity is 80 litres (some are larger, for instance, the RATIONAL iVario XL is 150 litres) - compared with making multiple batches with smaller appliances, this saves considerable time.
Space saving. Despite being a large unit, as it does the job of 8 individual machines, it saves a considerable amount of space.
Simple to empty and clean. Its tilting mechanism makes it easier to serve contents or empty and clean the pan. In most Bratt Pans, a spout-shaped lip helps with pouring.
RATIONAL has created the iVario Pro range, a new generation of advanced Bratt Pan, with all the functionality and more.
The iVario Pro is up to 4 times faster and consumes up to 40% less energy. Its intelligent design stops any food from burning or boiling over due to the sensors in the pan base.
The pans recognise the load quantity letting you know if you need to turn, add liquid or take food out. This minimises food waste and helps you create consistently high-quality dishes in large volumes.
