Quick Bake Ovens

Quick Bake Ovens — a rapid oven is an essential appliance in HoReCa businesses where food preparation speed is critical: in cafés with toasted sandwiches and panini, fast food with hot-served products, hotel breakfasts, airport or hospital buffets; a quick bake oven serves customers much faster than a standard oven and does not require special ventilation, allowing it to be placed anywhere in the premises of HoReCa businesses.

Quick Bake Oven Operating Principles

Quick Bake Ovens — a speed oven combines several heating technologies and uses them simultaneously to reduce cooking time while maintaining product quality. Microwave energy — quickly heats the inside of the product, significantly reducing overall cooking time. Convection heating — hot air circulation ensures even heating and browning of the exterior. Infrared heating — quartz or catalytic infrared radiation ensures a crispy exterior; this is especially important for toasted sandwiches, panini and pizzas. Catalytic filter system — the oven is equipped with catalytic filters that trap grease and odours, allowing operation without a ventilation duct; see Convection Ovens from Other Manufacturers. BHS supplies quick bake ovens in Europe.

Where a Quick Bake Oven is Needed

Quick Bake Ovens — a speed oven is ideal for situations where space is limited, ventilation installation is expensive or impossible, and customer service speed is a priority. Cafés and cafeterias — quick heating or baking of toasted sandwiches, panini, croissants and pastries; a speed oven opens the possibility to offer hot food without high costs. Fast food or quick-service restaurants — quick heating of burger buns, chicken fillets, pizza slices or other fast food products; see Accessories for Convection and Pastry Ovens. Hotel breakfasts and buffets — quick five-minute heating of hot products for guest service.

HACCP and Safety Requirements for Quick Bake Ovens

Quick Bake Ovens — as a food-contact appliance, a speed oven meets HACCP requirements and equipment safety standards. Product temperature — a product served as hot food must reach at least +75°C inside after oven processing; a speed oven allows this to be checked faster. Appliance cleaning — cleaning the oven interior and door after each shift; catalytic filters are cleaned or replaced according to the manufacturer’s recommendations; a clogged filter reduces ventilation efficiency. Microwave safety — microwave emission is confined within the oven’s hermetic chamber; the oven door must not operate if not properly closed; inspection after any fall or defect; see Oven Trays, Grids and Moulds.

HoReCa Use Scenarios for Quick Bake Ovens

A café with hot toasted sandwiches and panini — in a café where half of the orders are hot toasted sandwiches or panini, a speed oven allows serving the product in 2–3 minutes; no ventilation duct is required; BHS supplies equipment in Europe. A hotel restaurant with buffet breakfasts — in a hotel serving breakfast to 100+ guests, a speed oven ensures quick heating of croissants, toast and other products. A fast food business with ready-made products — in a fast food outlet, a speed oven quickly heats pre-prepared products; BHS supplies the products. BHS offers quick bake ovens for HoReCa businesses across Europe.

Does a speed oven consume more electricity than a standard oven? Quick Bake Ovens — a speed oven typically consumes 3–5 kW; this is more than a small microwave oven but significantly less than a traditional convection oven when comparing cooking time; the faster the product is ready, the less energy is consumed overall; see Accessories for Convection and Pastry Ovens.
