Combination oven/steamers are widely used in Europe and are gaining popularity in the U.S. The versatile Vulcan CombiAirTM Oven can be used as a:
combination steamer/convection oven
rethermalizing oven
proofer
steamer
convection oven
cook & hold oven
Some tips for better CombiAir results:
1. Before using the oven, read the manual.
2. Never force open the oven door. It has a built-in safety opening mechanism that allows steam to vent before the door is fully opened.
3. If your kitchen routine and menu allow, do your steaming before baking; you will save time and energy.
4. Always steam in perforated pans.
5. It's better to use shallow pans than to overfill deep pans.
6. Place a solid pan under the perforated pan to collect any wanted juices.
7. Clean the oven each day with a 10-minute steam-out before shutting it down. Hose down and wipe off excess moisture with a clean cloth.
