Blast chiller advantages

caution

  • Take great care when consuming raw food, especially fresh fish and cephalopods, as there is the risk of contamination from Anisakis, a parasite which is hazardous to human health. This risk can be eliminated by cooking to a minimum temperature of 65°C, or by deepfreezing to -18°C and then holding at -18°C for at least 96 hours.
  • In order to retain the properties of hot foods, do not allow them to remain at room temperature before blast chilling or deep-freezing them.

Your blast chiller allows you to quickly cool food and to deep-freeze them rapidly in order to retain their freshness and guarantee them a long lifetime.
Blast chilling and rapid deep-freezing help preserve the flavour, aroma, colour and nutritional properties of food.
Blast chilling cooked foods to an internal temperature of +3°C minimises bacterial proliferation, which is at its maximum between 65°C and 8°C.
Rapid deep-freezing to -18°C allows frozen food to be preserved for a longer period - usually several months more. It also prevents the formation of large ice crystals that damage and break the cell walls of the food. When defrosted, the food will not lose liquid and will retain their consistency and taste.

Without blast chiller:

  • bacteriological risk;
  • evaporation and dehydration;
  • food weight loss;
  • loss of flavours, aromas, colours;
  • rapid spoiling;
  • formation of large ice crystals which damage the fibres of the food.

With blast chiller:

  • food safety;
  • retention of original consistency;
  • no food weight loss;
  • retention of original properties;
  • longer preservation time;
  • formation of micro-crystals of ice that do not damage the food, allowing its properties to be preserved.

  • For flours with a high W index, use a smaller quantity of dough and set a longer proving time.
  • Use smaller quantities of yeast, for example 4 grams in 1 kg of dough and prove the dough for longer to make it more fragrant and digestible.
  • Cover the dough with cling film.
  • Use a sourdough starter to obtain fluffier, lighter and more digestible doughs.
  • Reduce the quantity of yeast used and prove at a constant temperature for the best dough proving results.
  • If a fast proving (between 60 and 120 minutes) is desired, it is recommended using the MANUAL PROVING function and setting a temperature of 35°C.
YOGHURT


This long-time function (14 hours) is dedicated to yoghurt production.

Preparing the mixture

  1. Pour one litre of milk into a saucepan and heat it over low heat to a temperature of about 38-45°C.
  2. Meanwhile, pour 125 grams of yoghurt (or a sachet of commercially available freezedried lactic ferments) into a container.
  3. When the milk has reached temperature, remove it from the heat and pour it a little at a time into the container with the yoghurt (or cultures), stirring with the help of a whisk.
  4. When finished, distribute the mixture into 5-6 jars and seal them hermetically or cover with cling film.

When finished, a buzzer sounds briefly, which can be deactivated by touching any point of the display or by opening the door.

Yoghurt preparation tips

  • Use pasteurised whole UHT milk and a pot of white yoghurt.
  • For a low-fat yoghurt, use skimmed or partly skimmed UHT milk and a pot of low-fat yoghurt.
  • To make fruit yoghurt, it is preferable to use firm, seasonal fruit.
  • We recommend peeling and cutting the fruit into small cubes and cooking it in a saucepan for about 15 minutes, stirring often. For a sweeter taste, brown sugar can be added during cooking or agave syrup after cooking.
  • For a creamier mixture, you can blend the previously cooked fruit.
  • Allow the resulting fruit mixture to cool before adding it to the yoghurt.
  • Add the (cooled) fruit mixture to the yoghurt before placing it in the cavity of the appliance.
  • Alternatively, flavour the yoghurt with a few drops of flavouring (lemon, orange, tangerine, etc.). added to the milk just before putting it in the jar. The recommended dose is 2 spoons of flavouring per litre of milk.
