FAQs

What is HotmiPRO?

It’s a multifuctional, professional appliance, that allows to cook any food, while mixing simultaneously at variable speeds, at temperatures between -24°C and +190°C, and that works both as a mixer for blending liquids and as a cutter that will chop up any solid ingredient.

Why is it “professional”?

HotmixPRO machines can rightfully be defined “professional” thanks to their pro-level, innovative, and useful features.
Features that definitely redefine the concept of “high perfomance cooking appliance”.
Here are the most outstanding:

Degree by Degree Temperature Control (from -24°C to + 190°C)

HotmixPRO machines not only have an unmatched temperature range (-24°/+190°)*, but also allow an extremely accurate control over it. Being able to set temperature with an accuracy of 1°C can really make the difference.

SD card expandable memory (SD included)*

With its unique ability to store data on a SD card*, updating either the firmware or the recipes will always be easy. As a professional tool, this is a really valuable plus since your machine will always be up-to-date. This also allows the creation -and subsequent storing on SD- of your custom recipes with ease, even from your computer.

3000W professional-level motor

Equipped with a professional-grade motor rated  from 1200 to 3000W  - driving the blades at a speed from 60 to 16000 rpm* - HotmixPRO can chop, puree, liquidize, blend or mix any kind of food in no time at all. It was also conceived to work all day long without suffering for long-term work overload.

WT (Wait Temperature)

Sets TIME as the main parameter to be observed in order to consider finished a recipe. This Feature is settable either from the machine or from your PC(with our "CreatorPRO" software), and has two main uses:

  • since you know what temperature has to be reached by your recipe to be finished, using the WT feature you'll be able to get the same result always, regardless of the quantity and initial temperature of your selected ingredients;
  • if, instead, you need to heat something up to a specified temperature, and then keep that temperature for a specified time, after setting the temperature you can set a time to keep such temperature; thus you'll be able to obtain always the same results, regardless of the quantiy and initial temperature of your selected ingredients.

NEXT

Allows two subsequent operations on the same bowl content. This feature is settable only using your PC (with our "CreatorPRO" software) and has two main uses:

  • in the end of a recipe, it may be useful to set a final touch without the need to manually program the machine; with our "CreatorPRO" software you'll be able to use this function to connect two subsequent STEPS created by modifying one single parameter, such as SPEED. For instance, when pastry cream is ready, a "NEXT" STEP allows to raise the SPEED - a final touch to give it a nice shine.
  • Otherwise, you may connect two STEPS by modifying more parameters, such as SPEED and temperature; in the previous example, after the last fast passage described above, you can set the machine to keep mixing it slowly at 40°C, always ready to be served, with the great comfort of being able to go away and take care of something else.

PULSE 2

This feature is settable only using your PC (with our "CreatorPRO" software) and it can be useful during operations of ingredient preparation, such as pulverizing, or mincing. In fact, it allows to alternate working phases of 10 seconds to pause phases of 2 seconds. Work for 10 seconds, stop fro 2, then work for 10 seconds, and again stop for 2, and so on. Working in this way, the machine ensures perfect treatment of the ingredients, because they fall towards the blade during every stop-phase, and nothing is leaved untouched.

Made of Stainless Steel

The bowl is graduated for your convenience, and the whole machine* is made of strong and reliable stainless steel.

Heat Protection

The bowl is inserted in a thermally insulated body, for your convenience and safety.

26 Speeds

With its 26 speeds, including "speed 0 (null)", "pulse** (two options)" and "turbo", HotmixPRO machines will always allow you to create any desired preparation, no matter how delicate -or strong- the required processing is.

Responsive

The automatic vibration dampening system ensures stability even at high operating speeds.

Ergonomic

The handle is positionable on both right or left side, ensuring maximum comfort either to right or left-handed users.

Safe

Low-tension commands will ensure maximum safety during everyday use.

Vacuum

HotmixPRO Master is also able to create a strong vacuum into the bowl, thus allowing a lot of special preparations, such as vacuum cooking, vacuum drying, and many more!

Which is the difference with a cutter?

A cutter is typically incapable of speeds higher than 3000 rpm, HotmixPRO can reach up to 16’000 rpm.

What are the benefits compared to a cutter?

Driving the blades at a speed of up to 16’000 rpm, HotmixPRo quickly reaches the desired level of refining of the product, saving time, without affecting the properties or the quality of the ingredient.

Who needs it?

The chefs, the confectioners, the coffee-tops, labs…

How to use it?

The use of HotmixPRO is easy and intuitive. It is possible to use it manually, selecting the parameters of Speed, Time and Temperature, otherwise making a stored recipe.
Thanks to its graphic LCD diplay, that shows all the selected functions, including ingredients and quality for each recipe, the operator can interact with HotmixPRO in each time processing.

Which are the benefits for the chefs?

HotmixPRO works, the chef creates:

HotmixPRO is able to process so many types of food when hot, avoiding the many intermediate steps involved when preparing recipes that require constant attention, and repeated handling to ensure a successful outcome.

Time optimization:

The convenience factor is that all the ingredients can be put into the bowl and the desired end-result achieved, thanks to the ultra-precise temperature control and to the continuous mixing at the selected speed.

Standardization of the recipe quality:

Using the HotmixPRO, even the most demanding professional will be able to maximize the quality of every single dish and delicacy by virtue of the precision controls built into the machine, not least as the best and most popular recipes can be standardized and therefore reproduced any time,any day, by other members of staff, if necessary.

Which are the benefits for the confectioners?

Perfect control of the temperature:

Every confectioner knows that the temperature is crucial for the success of a perfect product: HotmixPRO controls the temperature with 1 degree of tolerance.
