Steam Jacketed Kettles: Industrial Kettle

Our stainless-steel, scraped surface Industrial Steam Jacketed Kettles range from 50 to 5000 litres. These can be part of the DCN Cook-Chill System or used independently.

steam jacketed kettle: Advanced Design

Cook Tank Tumble Chiller System

This versatile dual purpose machine delivers all the benefits of the Cook Tank - for stationary cooking and cooling of solid muscle items - (chicken, turkey, fish) whilst also converting into a Tumble Chiller. This gives operators the added option of cooling liquid kettle-cooked products such as soups and sauces in their Cook-Chill bags.

Tumble Chiller Systems

Our Tumble Chiller rapidly chills large batches of food in flexible plastic casings to below 4°C (40°F), extending refrigerated shelf life for up to 45 days. Post-cooking, the bagged product is immersed in chilled water while the drum gently rotates, tumbling and massaging the bags to ensure thorough cooling with minimal product damage.
