Elkay’s ER191 Ice Pre-Chiller

September 25, 2019 | No Comments »

Many times, having a low ice count or a slow harvest cycle can simply be the warmth of the tap water entering your ice machine, not the ice machine itself. Tap water temperature varies throughout the year, thus creating a problem when it comes to creating ice consistently.

That is why the good folks at Elkay Foodservice Products have manufactured the ER191 Pre-Chiller, the perfect solution to this problem. Water that is being used for ice production passes through the ER191, cooling the temperature, and held in a storage tank. The ice machine then draws water from this pre-chilled tap water creating ice more consistently and at peak efficiency.

The ER191 produces 19 gallons of chilled water per hour. Because it has a four gallon storage tank, it can easily keep up with the demands of large batch-process ice machines. Using this machine will give you more ice daily, and shorten harvest cycles, putting less strain on the ice machine itself. Under typical test conditions, Elkay has seen up to a 20% increase in ice production for a 48“ ice machine.

The Versatile Chef Station from Vulcan

Versatile Chef Station

Vulcan’s award-winning Versatile Chef Station (VCS) allows foodservice operators not only a durable cooking solution, but precise cooking in a variety of applications. The VCS is your griddle, stock pot, saucepan and more all rolled into one. It has the ability to sear, braise, simmer, steam boil, shallow fry, saute, and retherm all using just 18” footprint for a single well, or 36” for a double well.

Whether you choose griddle, boil or fry, the VCS automatically sets the typical temperature for the mode chosen.  If your preference is to adjust settings manually, that works as well. A precise digital display eliminates the guesswork! Six integrated elements with built-in temperature monitors provide accurate, uniform heat, within 2°F corner to corner. An integrated probe in the cooking well senses liquid temperature, providing additional accuracy assurance. A patented, tri-metallic cooking surface with an aluminum core is sandwiched between stainless steel to provide faster, more even heat transfer than all-steel surfaces for superior heat uniformity and rapid recovery.

Vulcan’s Versatile Chef Station has been turning heads since it was launched. It has received the 2018 StarChefs International Chefs Congress Innovator Award for Heavy Equipment, the Editor’s Choice Award in the New Equipment Category at the Hotel Experience Show and most recently the Kitchen Innovations 2019 Award presented by the National Restaurant Association, Hotel-Motel Show.
