One of the most versatile and useful pieces of equipment in a commercial kitchen, the planetary mixer can be tasked with whipping egg whites and mixing batters, to kneading bread dough and grinding meat. Planetary mixer models range in size from large (80-140 quarts or more) to small (10-30 quarts) to match your food service operation needs.
Admiral Craft offers a variety of sizes that fit those food service needs! The 20 quart PM-20 model features a 1.5 HP motor that can handle any mixing need. These Adcraft planetary mixers have direct drive 100% gear driven transmissions, translating to consistent mixing speeds regardless to the amount of product in the bowl. There are also no belts to maintain or replace! There are three fixed speeds to choose from, including gentle folding to beating. A stainless steel wire safety guard surrounds the top of the bowl to keep hands and tools away from potential hazards.
If your operation already has a mixer, consider adding a smaller, supplemental mixer to the line. Having more than one mixer can help increase efficiency and is perfect for smaller batches of product to keep operations running smooth!

Statistics show that there are 25 million corporate meetings every day in the U.S., and increasing at a rate of 10% each year. That means there are many opportunities that catering can be a part of. However, there are many limitations to reaching that market, as many clients won’t allow open flame food warming in their business. Enter Sterno Products!
The Sterno SpeedHeat Flameless Food Warming System uses a process that involves two water-activated heat packets and an included base tray that replaces the traditional water chafing pan. The Sterno SpeedHeat also has zero ramp-up time, producing high-heat steam instantly. These SpeedHeat packets are disposable, and the base and tray are fully recyclable, creating the perfect solution to caterers looking to expand their corporate catering offering.

Long the solution for high-volume fish holding, fish files would have perforated bottoms to allow melted ice and fish juices to drain off. Also, each layer of fish would have to be covered by a layer of ice, and maintained throughout the day, and then completely removed for end-of-day cleaning. Weep holes would have to remain unobstructed throughout the day, and a floor drain is absolutely necessary. Add clogged drains to this complication and you can count on a slip-and-fall hazard being present.
Introducing the solution to this mess; the ice-free fish holding Randell FX series from Unified Brands. It is operated without ice, and designed to hold to temperatures precisely where you have set them. They can hold seafood at a constant 32°F, maximizing shelf life, food safety, and freshness. Traditional walk-ins and reach-ins operate at 38°F to 41°F degrees and are subject to considerable swings in temperature during heavy use.
How does the Randell FX Series work? Each FX drawer is built around a generously insulated “tub” that keeps food cold. Hot air rises, so when a traditional refrigerator door is opened, cold air spills out the bottom leaving the refrigerator compartment filled with warmer replacement air. That doesn’t happen with FX refrigerated drawers. When you pull a drawer open, food remains blanketed in cold air with a minimal rise in temperature. Drawers can easily be divided into compartments for different types of fish, and there are no drain holes or perforations where clogs, bacteria, or corrosion can accumulate. Drawer interiors are easy to clean, and drain odors are eliminated.
Randell’s FX Series is ideal for holding fish, but it’s also great for dialing in the best temperatures for other cold food holding. Red meats should be held at 41°F for safety, but depending on the fat content, moisture content, and intended method of cooking, colder holding temperatures may produce better results. FX gives the operator control. Gelato should be held at slightly warmer temperatures than ice cream. You can set your FX to hold Gelato at an optimal 8°F. Products to be finished in pre-programmed speed ovens can be held at consistent preset starting temperatures to ensure the same results from one order to the next. The FX is even great for holding delicate appetizers.
The Randell FX drawers can be installed in counters, sauté stations, breading stations, sushi bars, or chilled prep units. They can also can be stacked two high to create work surfaces, or three high for maximum storage and ultimate flexibility. Many operators have seen a significant return on investment by going iceless with Unified Brands and the Randell FX Series cold holding system.
