The combi steamer is a technical analogue of a "human orchestra" in a professional kitchen. It is he who is able to fry, steam, cook and bake, and all this at the same time. It has two drawbacks - price and power consumption. The owners of catering outlets, having torn from 200,000 to 1,500,000 rubles from their hearts (these are the prices for combi ovens today), are forced to pay impressive electricity bills every month. And what to do?
Professional heating equipment has always been famous for its appetites in the field of energy consumption. However, there is a way out - it is enough to purchase a gas combi steamer. Yes, it costs more than a classic electric, which works from 380 V, but due to constant savings it pays for itself quickly enough.

So what is it all about? A combi oven is a type of heating equipment that combines the functions of a double boiler and a convection oven. The principle of operation of a double boiler is known to everyone, and the name is speaking, but it is worth talking about convection especially. This is a type of heat treatment of food, which is carried out by combining hot air and fans. Thanks to this, the heat throughout the volume of the working chamber remains stable and uniform, and the dishes are baked and beautiful. The gas combi steamer combines all these qualities while saving you money.
It is in this unit that you can cook capricious cakes and delicate fish without risking to dry the product, get excellent yeast baking without mounds and with a uniform glossy crust.
More, more steam!
Steam ovens are also divided according to the type of steam generation:
- Injection . Steam is produced by injecting water into a preheated chamber, which evaporates under the influence of temperature. Such combi steamers are cheaper, but their minus is that they are not able to work with steam at low temperatures, since water simply can not evaporate.
- Boiler rooms . Steam is formed in a special chamber and already in a "finished" form passes into the working chamber. Thanks to this, the functionality of the equipment is expanding.
