Advantages of owning a Blast freezer

A blast freezer, also known as a shock freezer, is a type of freezer that rapidly freezes food to its core. This means that food items or ready-to-eat meals can be prepared and stored gently.

The blast chiller can reach the desired storage temperature, which is usually between -10 °C and -18 °C, in a matter of hours. For example, a 90 °C hot dish can be cooled down to 3 °C within 90 minutes and then frozen within 240 - 270 minutes.

Blast chillers and blast freezers are sophisticated pieces of equipment that are critical to food safety in any foodservice establishment. Due to their specialized features and operational abilities, they can prove to be costly. We stock brands and models which pertain to both high and low ends of the cost graph but nonetheless provide optimal performance and durability.

The basic functionality of these freezers does not differ between brands and models, but the variety of features does. You can be confident that whether you're looking at the bottom or top of the budget scale, you'll get reliable and consistent food safety.

Choosing the right sized Blast Chiller

Blast chillers are usually purchased alongside traditional fridges and freezers. The size of your blast chiller will be determined by your commercial needs and the particular type of operations that you may run.

Also, it will depend on how much product you need to process at a given time? Blast chillers come in a variety of capacities ranging approximately from 14 Kg to 590 Kg at a time, and they typically use 2-inch deep pans that can hold about 5 Kg of food product (depending on its density).

You will need to analyse the food products you intend to use in your blast chiller and calculate their weight in order to choose the right size for the blast freezer or shock chiller.

What size containers should you choose or will need in your particular blast chiller unit? Purchasing large pans for the products which will be chilled, you may end up compromising the blast chilling process. Container dimensions are just as important as the size of the whole unit, as well as the number of trays or pans it can hold. So, keep this in mind when planning for the products to be chilled.

What is the setup of your kitchen or the storage size of your establishment? While the footprint of a blast chiller is the most obvious cause for consideration, you’ll also need to allow room for ventilation that is required for these freezers.

What type of model is best for your commercial space?

Countertop Model

Shelf space beneath counters can be used to place utilize under bench blast freezers with remote compressor, freeing up space for other equipment and they're ideal for smaller batches and chilled desserts.

Reach-In Unit

Inside the cabinet, these have permanent racks that can hold either hotel- or full-size sheet pans. These units are ideal for institutions, cafeterias, hotels, and large-scale production.

Roll-In Unit

In the case of roll-In blast chillers there are mobile tray racks that are better suited for larger amounts of food (200 Lb or more).

If the racks are the same size, pans can be transferred seamlessly from combi-oven to the blast chiller. These prove to be suitable for institutions, cafeterias, hotels and large-scale productions.

Details of Products to Blast Freeze

We stock and sell blast freezers that offer both hard and soft chilling capabilities, the type of chilling process you choose may be influenced by the type of food items and products being chilled. These chilling capabilities are distinguished primarily by the cooling temperature during the chilling process and can have an impact on product quality. Customizable cooling also lowers the risk of bacterial growth, which can quickly contaminate a product if not properly chilled. All this while maintaining quality and freshness.

Advantages of a blast freezer over conventional freezers?

One significant advantage that shock freezers offer compared to conventional refrigerators is that food, meat, fruit and cooked dishes are frozen to the core in a very brief span of time.

This produces tiny ice crystals, whereas, in freezers, these ice crystals are larger which will form on the frozen products, causing cell membrane damage. Because blast freezers do not damage the cell structure, essential vitamins, trace elements, and minerals of the food are preserved.

Even hot or still warm food can be frozen in a blast freezer using a rapid cooling function, which is not possible in standard freezers. Furthermore, the food's quality and taste are preserved, and the products retain their consistency. After defrosting, the food also appears to be freshly prepared.
