Lincat has expanded its Panther range by introducing a new addition: the HHB13100 triple deck hot holding bin. Building upon the technology of its well-received HHB12100 twin deck counterpart, this latest unit offers enhanced capacity. This development comes in direct response to customer demands and evolving market trends.
Reducing customer wait times and food waste, the new hot hold unit enables kitchens to cook food in advance of busy periods and then to keep it warm and in perfect serving condition. Food also doesn’t go to waste if it is not sold immediately.
Helen Applewhite, Marketing Manager for Lincat, said:
“We’ve developed the HHB13100 in partnership with key customers, to meet the demands of the ever-changing business environment.
“Similar to the development process of the HHB12100, our main emphasis with the HHB13100 wasn’t solely on hot holding; rather, it centred on ensuring quality. The HHB13100 preserves the texture and flavours of the stored food. It keeps proteins moist and maintains the crispiness of fried items.
“The hot hold unit is ideal for all sorts of pre-cooked hot foods, including breakfast items, grilled and roasted meats, sauces such as curry and Bolognese and steamed or roasted vegetables.
“With three independently controlled levels and able to accommodate a variety of pans sizes from GN1/1 to GN2/4, our hot hold unit is also all about flexibility. The easy-access open design speeds up service.”
Intuitive digital controls allow the operator to adjust the temperature for each zone ensuring each bin is kept at the optimum temperature to keep food in peak condition. During quieter periods one zone can be switched off saving energy.
Despite its compact footprint at 450mm wide, the HHB13100 will accommodate three GN1/1 pans. Alternatively, dividers are available as an accessory enabling the unit to be set up to accommodate a mixture of GN1/1 and GN2/4. The unit plugs into a standard 13 Amp socket so requires no installation.
A hygienic stainless-steel construction makes the hot holding unit robust and easy to clean.
As with all Lincat products sold in the UK, the HHB13100 will be supplied with a comprehensive, two-year parts and labour warranty.
The HHB13100 is available to purchase from Lincat. For more information please see www.lincat.co.uk.
