The Buffalo HX568 strikes a fantastic balance between raw power and  intelligent control.

For any kitchen looking to level up its output and  consistency without a massive learning curve, this is a very strong contender.

  • Top-Tier Tech: The multicook and  probe features take the guesswork out of high-volume cooking.
  • Demands Power: This 18.5kW unit requires a specialist three-phase electrical installation, not a standard plug.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Grand Hall, a popular wedding and  events venue in York, needed to upgrade its main kitchen oven to cope with larger bookings and  more complex menus. Their existing setup was struggling to provide consistent results across 200+ covers.

"Since installing the Buffalo combi, our service has become so much smoother. We can load up the mains, and  the oven tells us when to add the vegetables so it's all ready on the dot. The quality and  consistency have noticeably improved, and  our clients are delighted."

Michael Davies – Executive Chef

The venue has successfully increased its catering output by an estimated 25% while reducing plate-up times during peak service.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Due to its 18.5kW power rating, this oven must be installed by a qualified commercial electrician.
  • Ensure the unit is placed on a firm, level, and  fire-resistant surface with adequate ventilation around it.
  • A permanent mains water connection and  a nearby drain are required for the steam and  cleaning functions.
  • Once installed, run a full steam and  convection cycle to burn off any manufacturing residues before first use.

Keeping It Going

  • Use the built-in automatic wash cycle daily to prevent stubborn grease and  food residue build-up.
  • Wipe down the door gasket (seal) every day with a soft cloth to ensure it seals correctly.
  • If you are in a hard water area, a water filter is essential to prevent limescale damage to the boiler.
  • Regularly check and  clean the multipoint core probe to ensure it remains accurate and  hygienic.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Combi Oven

Not sure which combi oven is the right fit for your kitchen? Here are a few key things to consider to make sure you get the perfect match.

Size and  Capacity

Consider your busiest service. Does an 11 x GN 1/1 capacity, like this model offers, meet your needs? Match the oven size to your peak demand to avoid bottlenecks.

Power & Utilities

Check your site's services. High-power units like this need a three-phase electricity supply. You'll also need a water connection and  a drain for steam and  cleaning functions.

Controls: Digital vs. Manual

A touchscreen commercial combi oven gives you immense control, programmability, and  repeatability. It's fantastic for reducing staff training and  ensuring consistency across sites.

Cleaning Systems

Don't underestimate the value of an automatic wash cycle. It saves hours of staff labour, improves hygiene, and  keeps your oven in top condition for longer.

Key Functions

Do you need a core probe for perfect roasts? Advanced steam control for delicate baking? Or a 'proving' function for bread? Make a list of your culinary must-haves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does 'GN 1/1' actually mean?

A: GN 1/1 refers to the standard 'Gastronorm' sizing for professional kitchen trays and  containers. A GN 1/1 tray measures 530 x 325mm, making it easy to swap pans between different appliances.

Q: Does this oven need a water connection?

A: Yes, a permanent mains water connection is required to generate steam for the combi cooking and  for the automatic cleaning cycle.

Q: What is 'Delta T' cooking?

A: Delta T cooking maintains a set temperature difference between the oven chamber and  the food's core (measured by the probe). It’s a gentle, precise method perfect for slow-cooking large joints of meat, resulting in incredibly tender and  juicy results.

Q: How does the automatic wash cycle work?

A: The system uses a combination of water, steam, and  specialised detergent (sold separately) in a programmed cycle to thoroughly clean the oven cavity, removing grease and  food debris automatically.

Q: Can I create and  save my own cooking programs?

A: Absolutely. You can create and  save up to 99 unique programs, each with up to 6 distinct phases, allowing you to perfect and  standardise your signature recipes.

Q: What kind of power supply does this oven need?

A: This is a high-power 18.5kW unit and  requires professional hardwiring to a three-phase electricity supply. It will not work with a standard 13-amp plug.

Q: Is the multipoint core probe included with the oven?

A: Yes, the multipoint core temperature probe comes as standard with the Buffalo HX568 oven.

Q: Can this oven be used to prove dough?

A: Yes, it includes a dedicated 'proving' function that provides a low-temperature, high-humidity environment ideal for proofing bread and  other baked goods.

How the Multicook Feature Synchronises Your Service

Ever wished you had a kitchen assistant who knew exactly when to start cooking the potatoes, the veg, and  the fish so they all finish at the same time? That's exactly what the 'Multicook' or 'All-on-Time' function does. You can load different food items onto different trays, tell the oven what they are and  how long they each need to cook, and  set a single finish time. The oven's clever brain then calculates the precise start time for each item. It's like a perfectly synchronised cooking schedule, managed entirely by the machine. This means no more juggling timers or letting one part of the meal go cold while another finishes. It’s all ready, perfectly cooked, at the exact moment you need it for service.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Hotel Kitchens: Ideal for handling diverse banquet menus, room service, and  breakfast rushes with absolute consistency.
  • High-Volume Restaurants: The large capacity and  smart programs are perfect for managing a complex, fast-paced service.
  • Contract & Education Caterers: Reliably produces huge batches for canteens, with easy-to-use presets for different staff members.
  • Event Venues: The multicook function ensures all elements for weddings and  conferences are ready simultaneously.
