FlexiMix

A cooking kettle designed for multifunctionality

Automated preparation processes make the FlexiMix an ingenious and cost effective kitchen aid. You decide whether to use pre-set cooking processes or compile your own custom ones. Simply select your preferred option, add ingredients according to on-screen instructions, and press START. The kettle automatically takes care of cooking, stirring and cooling according to the selected recipe. To sum up, the FlexiMix helps you achieve consistent quality and reduce labour time while boosting productivity.

MKN Best-Practice-Beispiel

The right cooking kettle is a key success factor in any professional kitchen. The MKN FlexiMix – optionally available with a high-performance cooling system – brings both hot and cold dishes to perfection at maximum capacity.

The challenge: Preparing a fresh, lump-free bolognese sauce, without convenience products and with minimal effort.

The result: In collaboration with the MKN chefs' team, a process was developed to finish a batch in the 475 l kettle in just 1 hour and 45 minutes – saving over 60 minutes compared to a conventional tilting bratt pan. And requiring only a single operator.

One process for all batch sizes.

If you compile a recipe for 100 kg but only need to prepare 50 kg next time, the quantity of ingredients is adjusted automatically.*

Live HACCP*

Each cooking process generates a production report (HACCP). It includes temperature information, cooking results and itemised information about the cooking kettle and batch.
You can view this real-time report in HACCP Live mode directly on the cooking kettle display while the cooking process is running.

Stirring made easy

A high quality agitator guarantees consistent temperature, homogeneous composition and stable texture. It prevents food burning onto the kettle wall, chops up food and efficiently transfers heat or coldness. The three-part agitator tool can be easily attached or removed, even when the kettle is full, and cleaned in the dishwasher.

FINGERTIP CONTROL

The intuitive touchscreen

Electronic control via the high-resolution 10" capacitive colour touchscreen - as fast and intuitive as a smartphone. Create and save multi-step cooking processes  – if required, in separate folders und using the favourites feature.

Display with user guidance
Follow successive cooking steps on the display while the dish is being prepared.

Individual information notes**
You can add useful notes to any cooking process, e.g. "Add meat"". An acoustic signal sounds at the right time and notification appears on the display. Once confirmed, the cooking process resumes.

Hygienic, ergonomic and safe

Hygiene and workplace ergonomics are top priorities in MKN multifunctional
cooking kettles. An integrated water inlet in the kettle allows water to be easily
refilled during cooking without opening the lid. The kettles are equipped with
automatic water inlet and measuring system for consumed water.

By using the cleaning paddle, you not only save up to 80 % detergent
but also around 45 minutes during each cleaning cycle compared to cooking kettles without cleaning programme.

A low kettle rim and high pouring height of 600 mm makes it easier to work
ergonomically and empty the cooking kettle. There is sufficient space under
the kettle for a trolley or GN container.

The spring-loaded hinged chrome-nickel steel lid is easy to open. The handle is
not situated above hot steam. The lid can also be taken off and easily cleaned
in the dishwasher.
A large integrated opening with protective grid and additional lid lets you sprinkle
ingredients into the kettle.

Shower hose

The optional separate shower hose can be stowed in a space-saving detachable storage box. It is available with cold water as well as warm and cold water.

 

[Translate to English:] Rührwerksmotor

Agitator motor

The enhanced mixer motor is particularly well suited for processing frozen foods and heavier products, such as dough. It is available as an optional feature for appliances with capacities ranging from 150 to 300 liters.

[Translate to English:] Fußschalter für freihändige Bedienung

Foot switch for hands-free operation

An optional foot switch lets the chef operate the stirring agitator in slow mixing mode while adding ingredients to the kettle when the lid is open or the kettle is emptied.

Cook&Chill* in an
automatic cooking proces

Rapid chilling of food is extremely important in Cook & Chill production. 

Hygiene regulations are automatically observed and archived (HACCP). Processes are safe, standardized and become more effective.

Rapid chilling is based on  the largest possible temperature difference between the cooked food and cooling agent. A practical, effective and safe solution is ice water cooling with a temperature of around 0 °C.

This system efficiently integrates the multifunctional cooking kettle into the recirculation of ice water into a customer's ice bank. The latter can even be situated on another floor in the building.

The HACCP requirements can be adhered to because the ice water not only circulates on the interior surface of the cooking kettle, but also in the vertical stirring axis of the agitator. So, around 10 % more surface area is available for cooling or heating in the kettle.
