Restaurant Equipment - Keep Your Restaurant Equipment Clean
No matter what type of restaurant, concession stand or snack bar you are looking to open, what type and how much restaurant equipment that you purchase can easily make or break your operation. Putting in place a regular maintenance plan for each piece of restaurant is imperative for a couple of different reasons.
First, it will lengthen the life span of your equipment so you will not need to turn around and invest more capital. Second, a regular maintenance schedule will keep each piece of restaurant equipment up and running allowing your staff to produce the proper quality of food in a timely manner.
Every restaurant depends on one or many types of commercial ovens. Commercial ovens include ovens such as: char-broilers, deck ovens, pizza ovens, barbeque grills, hot plates and even griddles. You will want to clean any spills in the oven cavity or on the grill or the griddle on a daily basis.
Many stand alone restaurants as well as restaurants at golf courses, country clubs and resorts use a deep fryer to cook items that are made available on their menu. Staying on top of changing the oil in the deep fat fryer is easy to do by keeping simple records. To fully protect your restaurant equipment, you will want to check the units owner's manual to determine how often that it needs to be changed as each manufacturer is different.
Grease is a challenge in any kitchen. Sometimes the best cleaner is something natural right from your kitchen. Almost everyone has ice and lemon available to them. This combination can act as a very powerful cleaner, especially for outdoor restaurants, concession stands or snack bars. To use this combination simply fill a bucket with ice and a cut up several lemons. Squeeze the lemon into the bucket and then fill the bucket with water.
Many facilities use restaurant equipment called steam tables or warming wells. To make sure you get the most out of your units, you will want to make sure that the heating elements are regularly cleaned. If they are not cleaned, they will accumulate minerals and not function at the highest level. You also need to make sure that the heating elements are fully submerged in the water in order to obtain the full effect of the heating element.
To insure that your commercial refrigerator is at its highest efficiency, you will want to make sure the doors close properly when the piece of restaurant equipment is not being used. In addition, you will want to set up a regular schedule of checking that all hoses are properly attached and are not leaking. You will also regularly need to clean the inside of the cooler of any spills that you may have had. In addition, you need to clean the refrigerator coils located at the back of your commercial refrigerator. Dusty coils can transform your refrigerator into being 30% less efficient and cost you more money.
Restaurant equipment includes many different pieces of equipment for the kitchen in your restaurant, concession stand or snack bar. You want to protect your investments as well as allow the equipment to perform at the unit's highest level. Keeping all of the units clean will help accomplish both of these goals and will insure that your restaurant equipment will last as long as possible.
