Blast Freezers

What is a Blast Freezer?

A blast freezer is a specialized piece of equipment designed to rapidly freeze food products by subjecting them to extremely low temperatures in a short amount of time. Unlike conventional freezers, which gradually lower the temperature of food over an extended period, blast freezers can bring the temperature of food down to freezing or even sub-zero levels within a matter of minutes.

One of the primary benefits of blast freezers is their ability to preserve the quality, freshness, and flavour of food products. By quickly freezing items, blast freezers minimize the formation of ice crystals within the food, which can cause cellular damage and lead to a loss of texture and taste. This preservation of quality is particularly important for delicate items such as gelato, ice cream, seafood, and certain fruits and vegetables.

Additionally, blast freezers play a crucial role in food safety by preventing the growth of harmful bacteria. By rapidly lowering the temperature of food, blast freezers inhibit the growth of microorganisms that can cause spoilage or foodborne illnesses. This is especially important for perishable items that require refrigeration or freezing to maintain their safety and integrity.

Its benefits include:

1. Preservation of food quality: By quickly freezing items, blast freezers maintain texture, taste, and appearance, crucial for delicate foods like gelato, seafood, and fruits.

2. Food safety: Rapid freezing prevents the growth of harmful bacteria, ensuring the safety of perishable items like meats and dairy products.

Blast freezers are best used for:

1. Flash freezing freshly prepared foods, extending shelf life and allowing for flexible production scheduling.

2. Preserving frozen desserts' texture and flavour, such as gelato and ice cream.

3. Safely storing perishable items like seafood and meats for long-term distribution and storage.
