7 | Sous-vide cooking Sous-vide cooking In sous-vide cooking, food is prepared, seasoned, marinated and/or seared before being placed into a vacuum bag and cooked at a low temperature. The method results in very flavorful food which retains its natural color, vitamins and minerals, and the gentle cooking process minimizes cooking losses.
8 | Low temperature cooking Low temperature cooking Cooking large meat and poultry products requires a lot of time-intensive monitoring and many years of experience, plus it renders conventional appliances unavailable for hours on end. With your cooking system, you can face these challenges with less worry: you can roast, boil, or braise food slowly at low temperatures during off-peak hours, such as during the afternoon or outside of service periods, so you can make optimum use of your cooking system, up to 24 hours a day.
9 | Finishing Finishing Finishing allows you to separate food production and service, giving you more flexibility to spend time on important things like planning, menu design, or creative plating. Finishing minimizes loss of quality caused by long holding periods, so your food always comes out tasting great. You can Finish exactly as much food as you currently need, so you can respond easily to changing guest numbers.

10.4.2 Positioning logic Based on the combination check, the iCombi Pro decides where the ticket is placed. The tickets are positioned optimally in the iProductionManager depending on the result of the check. A color marking in the rack levels indicates whether a new ticket will impact the already positioned tickets in the iProductionManager: If the rack levels are marked in yellow, you can place a ticket, but tickets that are already placed are moved.
You can have tickets that you have already placed in the iProductionManager optimized automatically by your iCombi Pro so that the dishes are cooked in an optimal sequence and time gaps are closed. The time sequence and positioning on the rack levels is retained.
You can have tickets that you have already placed in the iProductionManager optimized automatically by your iCombi Pro so that the dishes are cooked in the most energy-efficient way.
