Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

"The Flour Pot Bakery" in Brighton found their existing setup with separate prep tables and  fridges was causing bottlenecks during the morning rush. They needed a single, efficient station to improve their workflow.

"We were constantly walking back and  forth between the fridge and  the prep area. The Blizzard counter has put everything in one place. It's made our entire process much slicker, and  the granite top is a dream for our pastry chefs."

David Chen – Owner

By consolidating their prep area, The Flour Pot Bakery managed to increase their morning pastry output by over 30% and  reduce staff movement in the kitchen.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Once in position, let the unit stand for at least 4 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant to settle.
  • Ensure there's a gap of at least 20cm around the unit for good ventilation, especially at the back.
  • Use the adjustable feet to make sure the counter is perfectly level, ensuring doors close properly and  it runs efficiently.
  • Plug directly into a dedicated 13 amp socket; avoid using extension leads.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the granite worktop and  stainless steel surfaces daily with a food-safe cleaner and  a soft cloth.
  • Clean the removable condenser filter once a month to prevent dust build-up and  maintain cooling efficiency.
  • Regularly check the door seals (gaskets) for any splits or gaps and  wipe them clean to ensure a tight seal.
  • Avoid overloading shelves to allow cool air to circulate evenly throughout the cabinet.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Refrigerated Prep Counter

Not sure which prep counter is right for your kitchen? Here are a few key things to consider.

Measure Twice, Buy Once

Check your kitchen's footprint, including access routes and  doorways, before you order. These units are big and  heavy!

Worktop Wonders

A granite worktop is perfect for pastry and  pizza, while a standard stainless steel top is a great all-rounder for general prep.

Doors or Drawers?

Doors are ideal for storing larger, bulky items. Drawer models are brilliant for organising smaller ingredients in gastronorm pans.

Engine Placement

Consider where the condenser is located. Side or bottom-mounted units have different ventilation needs that might suit your space better.

Running Costs

Look at the refrigerant type (like R290) and  climate class. A more efficient unit can save you a significant amount on your energy bills over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does GN1/1 compatible mean?

A: It means the internal shelving and  supports are perfectly sized to hold standard Gastronorm 1/1 containers, which are a universal size in commercial kitchens.

Q: Is the granite worktop difficult to maintain?

A: Not at all. It’s incredibly durable and  non-porous, so a simple wipe-down with a food-safe cleaner and  a soft cloth is all that's needed to keep it hygienic.

Q: Can I place hot pans directly on the granite top?

A: While granite is very heat-resistant, we always recommend using a trivet for pans straight from the hob or oven to prolong the life of the worktop.

Q: What is R290 refrigerant?

A: R290 (Propane) is a modern, environmentally-friendly hydrocarbon refrigerant that is highly efficient and  has a very low global warming potential (GWP).

Q: How do the self-closing doors work?

A: They are fitted with a spring-loaded or weighted hinge mechanism that gently pulls the door fully shut if it's left slightly ajar, saving energy.

Q: Can the internal temperature be adjusted?

A: Yes, the unit is fitted with a digital temperature controller and  display, allowing you to set the temperature precisely within the +2°C to +8°C range.

Q: Is the condenser filter easy to clean?

A: Yes, it's designed to be easily removable from the front of the unit without needing any tools, making routine maintenance quick and  simple.

Q: Can this unit be fitted with castors?

A: Yes, there is an option to mount the unit on castors instead of the standard adjustable feet, which makes it easier to move for cleaning.

Why a Granite Worktop is a Chef's Best Mate

Ever wondered why so many professional bakers and  pizza chefs swear by granite? It's all down to its natural properties. Granite is a poor conductor of heat, which means it stays cool to the touch, even in a warm kitchen. This is a huge advantage when you're working with pastry, pizza dough, or chocolate, as it prevents them from getting too warm, sticky, and  difficult to handle.

Think of it like the cold marble slab in an old-fashioned sweet shop – it keeps everything firm and  manageable. On top of that, granite is non-porous and  incredibly hard-wearing. This means it won't absorb flavours or odours and  is exceptionally hygienic and  easy to wipe clean after a messy prep session. It’s a simple feature that makes a massive difference to your daily workflow.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pizzerias & Italian Restaurants

    The granite top provides the perfect cool surface for stretching dough and  keeping toppings fresh.

  • Artisan Bakeries & Patisseries

    Ideal for delicate pastry and  chocolate work, helping you maintain temperature-sensitive ingredients with ease.

  • Busy Sandwich Bars & Delis

    Offers a robust assembly station with all your chilled fillings organised and  accessible below.
