What foods does the SilverLine usually cook?

The common factors that unite all of the foods that the SilverLine cooks is that they must be in a liquid state and have water as an ingredient. The system is particularly well suited for soups, sauces, meat pastes, vegetable purees, cheese sauces and milk or cream based products. The SilverLine is not suitable for confections, nougat, chocolate and caramel, as these require the removal of water.

What beverages are usually processed with the SilverLine?

The SilverLine is well suited for processing many different types of fruit juice blends, juices with particulates, high Brix sugar water, sports drinks containing whey and milk based drinks. It is also an excellent choice for extracting teas, coffees and other extractives. The SilverLine’s extensive versatility allows it to easily heat beverages well over boiling (100◦C), which positions it as a very effective pasteurization system.

Is the SilverLine 3A certified?

Yes. The SilverLine, as a complete system, exceeds 3A requirements and is listed on certificate number 811. The Infuze™ cooker is also listed on the same certificate. The design of the SilverLine far exceeds 3A requirements, with its complete CIP bypass to allow complete cleaning of the steam header, and Infuze cooker internals to ensure maximum hygiene.

Where does it fit into my commercial kitchen?

The SilverLine has a very small footprint. The single cooker model is only 1.2m wide by 2m long. Additional cookers can be added to the system, increasing its length by only 0.6m. At 1.5m tall, the system can be fitted under walkways and platforms, in small areas next to walls or in the floor space where your old kettle was located. This is 1/3 to 1/2 the size of a 4000L kettle. Say yes to cooking efficiency with efficient design.

Is the SilverLine the right choice for my company?

Yes. The SilverLine is versatile enough to replace a kettle, yet cooks continuously like a heat exchanger. It has a small footprint, extremely low maintenance, eliminates burn on and is easy to clean in place. It was designed to reduce air consumption, use small amounts of power and reduces steam energy consumption by 15-20%. Does that sound like the right choice for your company?
