Sirman SoftCooker sous vide system from FEM offers ease of use and precise process management
Sous vide cooking offers numerous advantages in both food quality and the management of the cooking process itself. It streamlines operations, reduces waste and helps with portion control. Plus food is more tasty, more succulent and has a better colour than traditional cooking methods. FEM (Foodservice Equipment Marketing) has introduced the Sirman SoftCooker Wi-Food X NFC system which, when combined with the Sirman SoftCooker free app provides the ultimate control of the sous vide process.
The multilingual app, available for all smartphone platforms, allows management of the system via bluetooth in a simple and quick way. Cooking cycles with different temperatures and time stages can be controlled, recipes can be created and shared and there is access to a large catalogue of public recipes. The temperature and cooking level for each food can be viewed and HACCP data logged, audible alarms set and data sent to label printers. It even allows multiple units in the same kitchen to be controlled.
The SoftCooker itself has a large and practical 127mm touchscreen display with an IP67 rating. Up to 10 instant programs are stored on the machine as well as the countless other programs available through the app. Ergonomic handles make the machine easy to use. The SoftCooker enables consistent temperature control throughout the whole water bath at all times. It means there are no worrying hot or cold spots that can cause problems in getting uniform cooking.
Also available are optional practical and robust wireless probes to allow readings of the internal product temperature. These wireless probes can be reused thousands of times and loaded with data regarding the product, cooking, packaging date etc.
The Sirman SoftCooker Wi-Food X NFC system measures 165mm (w) x 203mm (d) x 377mm (h) and has a power of 2kW. The sides and basket are constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel.
