What is rapid freezing?

rapid freezing is a freezer that freezes food faster than a regular freezer. In the case of a normal freezer that freezes food slowly, the water in the food freezes and destroys the cells, causing the flavor components to flow out.

In contrast, rapid freezing allow food to pass through a temperature range of -1°C to -5°C within 30 minutes, where the water in the food freezes, preventing cell destruction and locking in flavor and flavor.

Therefore, when thawed, it is possible to reproduce the same quality as before freezing. We can always provide fresh, freshly made food.

There are various methods for rapid freezing, but air blast freezing machines, which blow cold air onto food, are commonly used as commercial freezers.

Air blast freezing is a method of freezing food by blowing cold air in the same way as a regular freezer. There are various types of air blast freezing freezers, and the performance differs depending on the machine.

There are various types of machines, including machines that can freeze hot food as it is, and machines that can freeze food faster by blowing cold air from multiple directions. There are also belt conveyor-type freezers that are used in factories for the purpose of mass freezing, and the freezer you choose will depend on the purpose.

There are various types of freezers, but the Artlock Freezer has good performance and is small, making it easy to install in restaurants.

Unlike the general air blast method, Artlock Freezer is equipped with a micro-wind system and an electronically controlled refrigeration system. The micro-wind system enables high-quality freezing while minimizing damage to ingredients such as drying, cracking, and oxidation.

The electronically controlled refrigeration system automatically adjusts to the optimal setting according to changes in outside air temperature, humidity, and the temperature of the objects being fed, so the quality of all foodstuffs remains stable no matter when or when they are frozen. Efficient adjustment without waste also reduces electricity costs.

Also, unlike other rapid freezing, it is effective for ``quick cooling/freezing'' of hot foods without pre-cooling.

The introduction of rapid freezing brings many business opportunities, including business expansion and cost reduction. Let's take a look at the actual benefits of installing rapid freezing.

Advantages of introducing rapid freezing

Advantages of quick freezing

rapid freezing offer various benefits and create many business opportunities. Here, we will introduce four typical benefits.

1. High reproducibility

rapid freezing allows you to freeze food as it is after making it, allowing you to preserve and serve it in a fresh, delicious state.

Since it does not destroy cells, you can reproduce the crispy surface and crispy texture of fried foods.

Since it can be stored frozen for a long period of time, customers far away can enjoy the taste and flavor of freshly made products through mail order and other methods.

2. Doesn't depend on the season

We can provide vegetables that have a limited harvest season and seafood that has a closed season all year round, and we can also provide the most delicious seasonal products for a long period of time.

Also, for foods whose prices change depending on the season, you can purchase them when they are cheap and store them for later use. You don't have to worry about inventory management because it won't spoil even if you buy a lot of it.

We will be able to provide you with the most delicious and cheapest food at any time.

3. Increased efficiency

Preparing a large variety of dishes every day takes time and effort, but this can be improved with the introduction of rapid freezing.

Since you can use your free time to prepare food in advance, you can reduce preparation work before opening, and you can serve food in a short time after receiving an order.

Also, making food ahead of time makes daily cooking easier and allows you to prepare a wide variety of menus. By freezing and making ahead of time, you can prevent contamination such as food poisoning and bacteria, and store hygienically.

By increasing work efficiency and shortening work time, it is also possible to improve the working environment.

4. Cost reduction such as disposal loss

By cooking in bulk, there are no leftovers or half-cooked ingredients, which reduces waste. Also, since you can purchase in bulk, you can reduce shipping costs. Efficient cooking also reduces labor costs.

rapid freezing are very cost-effective machines. If you consider the expansion of sales channels and cost reduction through rapid freezing, you can easily earn your money back.

cost performance, cost effectiveness

However, if you are reluctant to pay the cost of rapid freezing, you will end up with a machine with poor performance, and you will not be able to get your money's worth, so you need to be careful.

Beware of low-priced commercial rapid freezing and second-hand products!

Be careful about used commercial rapid freezing and prices.

Most of the quick freezers used in restaurants are small machines, so you can install one if you have the space and power supply.

There are various types and price ranges of rapid freezing, ranging from machines in the hundreds of thousands to millions. It's not cheap, so many restaurants are considering buying cheap or second-hand items.

These are cheap and can help keep costs down, but the disadvantages are that they often don't perform very well, resulting in a drop in food quality, and that it is difficult to receive support when problems such as breakdowns occur.

Of course, there is a certain correlation between price and performance. Products in the low price range cannot be said to have good performance.

Choosing rapid freezing will become easier if you think about how you want to use it and what level of quality you want. When choosing a machine, don't just focus on price; consider the compatibility between the food and the machine and the quality after thawing.

Even if you are able to find a used product with good performance, it is often not covered by the warranty, and in such cases, maintenance costs can be high.

In addition, since each manufacturer uses specialized technology to manufacture products, there may be no substitutes available, or it may be difficult to find replacement parts.

The disadvantage of second-hand products is that you cannot actually try them out before purchasing, as there are problems with the best way to use the machine and whether it is suitable or not depending on the food. It can be said that it is dangerous to get your hands on second-hand products.

rapid freezing is a machine that is often used for long periods of 10 years or more. That is why we should focus on cost-effectiveness and performance from a long-term perspective.
