The Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamer

The Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamer offers a completely new method of cooking. With the Oven/Steamer you have the choice of two cooking processes: Steam and Hot Air, either...

  • Separately
  • Combined, or
  • In Sequence

And for easy operation you can choose from three modes: In the Steam mode you can:

steamreheatreconstitute
stewthawsimmer
blanchepreservebraise

poach

In the Hot Air mode you can:

roastbakegrill
gratinatebroil

In the Combination Steam and Hot Air mode you can:

defrost roast rethermalize reheat bake forced steam

We suggest utilizing combi mode and switching to hot air mode with the vent open for the final 1-3 minutes depending on the product.

There are four additional specialized modes to help you:

Retherm - for perfect reheating

Proofing - Proof and bake all in the same oven

Preheat - in this mode the oven will preheat to 575°F (300°C) for 15 minutes. The oven will then automatically

You can also use two or three functions in sequence during one cooking process. We call this:

  • combi-steaming
  • combi-roasting
  • combi-baking
    The combination of circulating hot air and steam in the space saving, high performance Combi-Oven/Steamer leads to improvements in the following areas:
    • increased productivity in the kitchen
  • a reduction in capital expenditures for multiple equipment replacement
    • a wider range of menu choices
    • a simplified cleaning process

The work process is simplified since products are prepared on or in steam table pans and trays. Food can be cooked, stored, and transported with the same pans. Small amounts of product can be processed efficiently; pre-cooked and convenience foods can be reheated within minutes. Many frozen foods can be processed without pre-thawing. This flexibility in preparation reduces the need for kettles and steam tables since there is no need for large amounts of food to be kept warm for long periods of time.

Today the improvement of food quality is more important than ever. Vegetables are cooked in the Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamer without water at the optimal temperature of just under 212°F (100°C), maintaining valuable vitamins, minerals, nutrients and trace elements. Cooking

Description of the Combi-Oven/Steamer

ABOUT THE OVEN/STEAMER

Blodgett Combi-Oven/Steamers are quality produced using high-grade stainless steel with first class workmanship.

The multiple speed fan, which is guarded against accidental finger contact, is driven by a quiet and powerful motor. The condenser draws out excess steam from the appliance. Condensation and waste water, which result during steaming and cleaning, are continuously drained.

The use of high quality insulation impedes excessive heat radiation and saves energy.

The BLCT-6E-H, BLCT-10E-H, BLCT-61E-H, BLCT-62E-H and BLCT-101E-H make it possible to enjoy all of the advantages of a high quality steamer at the flick of a switch. Fresh steam enters the oven cavity without pressure and is circulated at high speed. This process enables quick and gentle cooking and ensures high quality food while providing convenient working methods.

The practical oven door, with a viewing window, has a wide swing radius and handle which can be operated easily, even with wet or greasy hands.

Ease of operation is guaranteed through the simple to use control. With graphical symbols and recipe storage the ovens are easy for even inexperienced kitchen staff to operate.

Cleaning is kept to a minimum thanks to the automatic Combi Wash system.

Oven Location and Leveling

The well planned and proper placement of your oven will result in long term operator convenience and satisfactory performance.

Certain minimum clearances must be maintained between the oven and any combustible or non-combustible construction.

MINIMUM REQUIRED CLEARANCES
Sides BackTop
2.75"(70mm)2.75"(70mm)0"(0mm)

In addition, the following clearances are recommended for servicing.

  • Oven body sides - 12" (30cm)
  • Oven body back - 12" (30cm)
  • Oven body top - 12" (30cm)

  • Do not place strong sources of heat such as open flame ranges, griddles, or charbroilers near the oven. If such an instance exists, it is highly recommended to purchase a heat shield, available from Blodgett.

  • Note that if temperatures are too high, a safety shutdown may occur.
  • Failure to comply may invalidate the oven warranty.

To ensure that the oven functions correctly when installed, it should be placed upright and level (horizontally). This is measured at the front and side edge of the roof. The oven can be levelled using the adjusting screws on the stand or on the legs of table models.

Using the Core Probe

NORMAL CORE PROBE COOKING

In the normal mode, the core probe will notify you when the product has reached the desired pull temperature. The cook temperature is constant in the normal mode.

  1. Follow steps 1-8 on page 18 to start a normal core probe cook cycle.

  2. The oven sounds an alarm, and turns off when the specified core temperature has been reached.

Unplug the core probe and remove the product.

DELTA T

When you use Delta-T, the oven maintains a constant difference in temperature between the core temperature and the oven temperature. The temperature of the oven rises slowly as the core temperature rises. Delta-T provides gentle cooking resulting in a tender, juicy product. Cooking with Delta-T reduces shrinkage by up to 20% compared to traditional modes of cooking.

  1. Follow steps 1-8 on page 18 to start a Delta T cook cycle.

  2. The oven sounds an alarm, and turns off when the specified core temperature has been reached.

  3. Remove the core probe and the product.

Tips for Delta-T Cooking

- For best results start with an oven temperature of 85-100°F (30-40°C).

- HOT AIR mode is recommended for very fatty and

COOK & HOLD

Cook & Hold is an extension of Delta-T cooking. The oven temperature adjusts relative to the actual core temperature of the product. When the desired core temperature is reached, the oven adjusts the cavity to maintain the core temperature, acting as a warming mode. Cook & hold is suitable for roasting over night when the staff is off duty.

  1. Follow steps 1-8 on page 18 to start a Cook & Hold cycle.
  2. When the product has reached the desired core temperature the display will read HOLD??? and the oven will adjust the cavity temperature to maintain the core probe temperature.
  3. Remove the core probe and the product when ready to serve.

Tips for Using Cook & Hold

  • Recommended holding temperature is 140-150°F (60-65°C). At higher temperatures a gradual dehydration of proteins takes place, the weight of the meat is reduced and the meat becomes less juicy.
  • With a hold temperature of 140-150°F (60-65°C), the meat can be taken out immediately before carving.
    • After being held for 5-6 hours shrinkage increases.

Operation

Cook to Perfection

The cook to perfection function helps recipes compensate for temperature fluctuations. These can occur when transitioning between recipes with different temperatures, opening the door, or adding frozen products. The system makes real time adjustments to cook time ensuring quality cooking.

CTP threshold (%)

CTP threshold accounts for when the cavity temperature is below the recipe set temperature. Time will be added to the recipe as long as the cavity temperature remains below the CTP threshold percent of temperature.

EXAMPLE: The oven preheats to a recipe's set temperature of 350^ F and a frozen product is loaded. The temperature of the frozen product and opening the door causes the cavity temperature to drop to 230^ F. The CTP will begin extending the total recipe time as long as the cavity temperature remains below the programmed threshold value, at 80% this equates to 285^ F. This compensates for the time it takes the oven to recover to the 350^ F called for in the recipe.

CTP tolerance (°)

The CTP tolerance value is a temperature range. If the oven's measured temperature is outside the range of desire temperature, the unit will adjust cook times. Unlike the threshold value, the tolerance compensates when the oven is too high above set point as well as below set point by adding or subtracting time as needed.

EXAMPLE: Using the same example of 350^ F, a 15^ tolerance means that time will be added to the recipe as long as the cavity is lower than 335^ F and subtract if cavity achieves temperatures above 365^ F. This may be the

WARNING!!

DO NOT spray the outside of the appliance with water or clean with a water jet. Cleaning with a water jet can impregnate chlorides into the stainless steel, causing the onset of corrosion.

Cleaning the Interior

NOTE: DO NOT use corrosive cleaners not intended for oven cleaning on your Combi oven.

Blodgett recommends the following products for cleaning and rinsing of your Blodgett Combi oven. If you choose to use products other than what Blodgett recommends, please have your supplier send us the MSDS sheet on the proposed alternate so we can ensure it meets our standards. Non approved products can cause harm to your unit and can potentially void your warranty.

WEEKLY CLEANING

In addition to the daily cleaning it is necessary to clean the air intakes on a weekly basis. Air intakes provide necessary cooling air to the internal components. They are generally located on the rear and sides of the equipment.

It is also important to clean the control filter and behind the fan guard on a weekly basis. This is necessary for proper functioning of the oven. Scale will build up on the fan and heat source leading to a less efficient oven.

  1. Remove the front grill section and clean the fan guards once a week on BLCT-61E-H, BLCT-62E-H, BLCT-101E-H & BLCT-102E-H, models

Cleaning Control Filter

  1. Lift and remove filter in housing at rear of unit.

Cleaning & Preventative Maintenance

Cleaning Behind the Fan Guard

  1. Using a flathead screw driver adjust each retaining clip so the slots are on the bottom of their respective cutouts.
  2. Lift up from the bottom of the fan guard and pull the top forward to move the fan guard above the retaining bar and over the placement pins on the bottom of the liner.
  3. Thoroughly spray cleaner onto the fan and heat source. Place the oven in the steam mode for approximately 10 minutes.
  4. After ten minutes, rinse the cleaner off. Place the fan guard back over the retaining bar and placement pins. Adjust each retaining clip so the slots are at the top of each cutout. If there is resistance ensure the baffle is properly seated over the retaining bar and placement pins.

Door Gasket

It is imperative that the door gasket is properly maintained. Wiping any grease from the gasket will lengthen its life.

Front Air Intake Cleaning

  1. When the oven and hoodini are both off you may take the opportunity to clean the front air intake, it may take up to 10 minutes for the hoodini portion of the unit to shut down after the oven has been shut down.
