THE ESSENTIALS
Cleaning & Descaling Tools
Detergent Tabs (CHEF-TAB)
These cleaning tabs are designed specifically for use with Chef’sCombi’s automated CombiCare cleaning cycles (quick, light, medium, and strong). They help keep the oven interior hygienic and spotless with minimal effort, letting the oven handle soil removal, so your team stays focused on cooking.
Care Stick (CHEF-STICK)
Used in the front descaling box as part of the CombiCare descaling cycle, these sticks help manage mineral buildup and keep internal systems flowing smoothly. This is especially important if you operate in areas with hard water.
Filter (SMF600-SYSTEM SCALEBLOCKER)
This system helps protect the oven’s steam generator and oven cavity by reducing scale buildup, which improves longevity, performance, and reliability over time. Water filters ensure that the steam is pure, which can improve the taste and quality of the food being cooked. It prevents off-flavors and ensures that the food retains its natural flavor and nutrients. It is a general recommendion that the ScaleBlocker® be replaced every 6 months to ensure it is working its best, but this frequency depends on usage and water quality. More usage and harsher water will require more frequent changes.
Cooking
Grab-N-Go Racks (V-RACK)
Vulcan’s patented grab‑and‑go racks feature a unique cutout design that enables faster, easier tray insertion and removal, streamlining workflows, increasing safety, and boosting kitchen efficiency. These racks come in additional sizes to fit your exact oven model.
Granite Enamel Pans (ENAMEL40 / ENAMEL60)
Enamel-coated pans are rugged and resistant to corrosion, with smooth surfaces that reduce food sticking to make cleanup easier. When used in a combi oven, these pans deliver even heat distribution, making them perfect for braising and menu items that require gentle, consistent cooking.
Egg Trays (EGGTRAY)
Egg trays hold multiple eggs in securely and evenly spaced wells, helping ensure even cooking across each egg when batch cooking breakfast. Whether you need over easy or over medium eggs, the egg trays paired with combi cooking will give the desired results.
Grill Grid Open Type (1220-GRILLOP)
This grill grid gives you the ability to execute grilled results with a combi oven. This accessory is ideal for proteins and vegetables that benefit from grill marks, crisp edges, and defined texture.
Air Fry Basket (1220-BASKET)
When you need to mimic the results of a fryer without the added oil, this stainless-steel basket helps air circulate around the product, producing crisp textures with a healthier footprint. It’s a great tool for wings, fries, or any of those other fried items that customers desire.
