6 December 2023
When running a food business, one of the most important things to consider is the quality and freshness of your ingredients. To achieve this, having a reliable and efficient chiller is an absolute must-have.
But how can you maximise space – volume – when it comes to having a chiller on hand? Well, that’s where TEFCOLD EBC chest chillers come into play. Although they might be mistaken for a chest freezer, these units are actually chillers, making them perfect for food- or drink-serving businesses where customers expect quick service and dish production alongside high-quality food. Examples might include grab-and-go sandwich bars, beer and wine stores, or other deli-style takeaways and cafes. Others might use it to store a large quantity of fresh fruit and veg ready for prep.
In this blog post, we’re walking you through the EBC chest chiller and why it could benefit your business.
Easy access to the EBC chest chiller
One of the most significant advantages of using EBC chest chillers is how easy they are to access. With a top-loading design, it’s easy to quickly grab items from the chiller without digging through layers of food.
As you know, having quick and easy access to your stock or produce saves precious seconds during busy periods and helps keep things running smoothly.
The convenience and accessibility of EBC chest chillers can also help reduce the likelihood of cross-contamination, an essential part of maintaining a safe and hygienic food service environment.
Consistent chilled temperatures
Another benefit of EBC chest chillers is how the cold temperature remains highly consistent throughout the space. With precise temperature control, your food will stay fresh and safe.
A consistent chilled temperature is especially important for businesses that need to keep dipping in for more stock. You can rest assured that the constant opening and closing of the lid will have a minimal effect on the internal coolness. At the same time, the chiller ensures the new items added won’t spoil the existing stock.
By maintaining a consistent temperature, EBC chest chillers can help extend the shelf life of your ingredients, reducing waste and saving you money in the long run. It also goes a long way in maintaining freshness, texture and flavour for the customer. Finally, a consistent temperature also means the contents are safe to prep and serve.
Incredible storage capacity
Of course, storage capacity is also an essential factor to consider. It’s a vital component of any chest-style unit, with no other format coming close to the versatility offered by this basic shape.
Fortunately, EBC chest chillers offer plenty of space for high-turnover food businesses. With ample room for all your ingredients, you’ll easily keep up with demand and stay supplied during busy periods.
EBC chest chillers come in a wide range of sizes. These range from the EBC35 (at 1,096 mm wide) to the EBC61 (at 1,706 mm wide). The array of options here means these chillers can store a wide range of items, from meats and cheeses to vegetables and drinks, in large or small containers or even in their packaging.
User-friendly features
TEFCOLD EBC chest chillers are designed with your ease of use in mind. These units are ideal for bulk storage, allowing you to keep a large quantity of chilled products such as soft drinks, beer and fresh produce. The static cooling system ensures a consistent temperature throughout the cooler, which is vital for maintaining the quality of your stock. What makes these chillers particularly user-friendly is their design, featuring casters. This added mobility means you can easily move the cooler around your space as needed, whether for cleaning, rearranging your layout, or accessing different areas of your establishment. The solid, hinged lid provides easy access to the contents, making it quick and simple for your staff to retrieve items, even during busy periods.
Aesthetic appeal and customisation
The EBC chest chillers are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing, with a design that features clean lines and a tidy appearance. This means they’ll fit seamlessly into most settings, enhancing the visual appeal of your business space.
