New accessory for conneX® high-speed ovens
Merrychef launches patented panini press
The new Merrychef® panini press is now available as an accessory for the conneX® 12 and eikon® e2s models, delivering evenly compressed sandwiches with perfect grill marks.
As if 80% faster cooking times, ventless cooking, and easy installation weren't enough, the latest Merrychef® accessory is certainly the "icing on the cake" - or rather, the perfect grill stripes on your sandwich! The Merrychef® panini press is newly available on the market as an accessory for the conneX® 12 and the previous eikon® e2s series, and reliably produces evenly compressed sandwiches with perfect grill marks.
What’s more, the handling is incredibly easy: with the included paddle, you can simply slide your food between the upper and lower grill plates. When you pull the paddle out, the grill lowers, pressing the food together and leaving its appetizing markings.
Available in three versions
The Merrychef® panini press comes in three versions: with a high opening for paninis, bagels, sub sandwiches, and regular sandwiches, as well as with a flat or ribbed plate on the bottom, so that the food can either have the characteristic grill pattern on just the bottom or on both the top and bottom. There is also a low opening for flatter products like quesadillas and flatbread.
The upper grill plate is designed to allow the maximum amount of microwave- and hot air to pass through, ensuring even grilling every time. The ceramic coating also provides durability and a long product life. When not in use, the panini press can be used as a regular grill for cooking food on the top surface, adding even more flexibility. The panini press is also easy to clean and remove from the oven.
Ease of use is crucial for success
Colin Lacey, CEO of Merrychef®, highlights the value of this significant addition to the brand's accessory range: "We have received incredible feedback on our new Merrychef® panini press. It seems to be very popular with our customers. Personally, I believe that the success lies in its uncomplicated handling. It couldn't be easier to serve a panini with perfect grill markings in less than 40 seconds."
