Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'The Northern Pantry', a popular cafe in Leeds, found their daily slaw and sandwich filling prep was becoming a real bottleneck. Their existing food processor disc was old and only offered one shred size, which wasn't ideal for their varied menu.
"We were considering a whole new machine just to get a different cut. Finding this reversible disc was a revelation. We just swapped it in, and now we can prep for our fine-cut signature slaw and our chunkier seasonal salads with the same processor. It's saved us time, space, and a lot of money."
Robert Miller – Head Chef
The simple switch to the Waring reversible disc cut their daily vegetable prep time by an estimated 30%, allowing staff to focus on service during the busy lunch rush.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always ensure the food processor is switched off and unplugged from the wall before handling blades.
- Place the disc carefully onto the central drive shaft, ensuring it sits flat and securely.
- The disc is reversible; choose which side you need (fine or coarse shred) and place it facing up.
- Always secure the processor lid and pusher before switching the machine on.
Keeping It Going
- For best results and to maintain sharpness, hand wash the disc with warm, soapy water.
- Avoid using abrasive metal scourers, as they can dull the cutting edges.
- Handle with care – the shredding blades are extremely sharp.
- Store it safely in a designated holder or its original box to prevent damage and accidents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this shredding disc dishwasher safe?
A: While it may be dishwasher safe, we highly recommend hand washing to preserve the sharpness of the blades for as long as possible.
Q: What are the two different shred sizes?
A: The disc provides one side for a fine shred and the other for a medium/coarse shred, offering great versatility for different recipes.
Q: How do I switch between the shredding sizes?
A: Simply turn off and unplug the machine, remove the lid and the disc, flip it over to the desired side, and place it back on the drive shaft.

A: No, this disc (WFP16S12) is specifically designed for the larger Waring models GG560 and GG561. Always check your model number.

The Waring Promise: Precision Parts for Peak Performance
Investing in a Waring appliance is a commitment to power, reliability, and performance. That ethos extends to every component, including accessories like this reversible shredding disc. Choosing a genuine Waring part isn't just about replacing a worn component; it's about upholding the integrity of your entire machine. A genuine disc ensures the motor isn't strained by an improper fit, the safety interlocks engage correctly, and the results are as crisp and consistent as they were on day one. In the long run, this protects your initial investment, reduces the risk of costly breakdowns caused by ill-fitting generic parts, and guarantees that your kitchen can continue to produce high-quality food without interruption. It’s the smarter choice for any business that depends on its equipment day in, day out.
Explore more from WaringTwo Cuts, One Disc: The Genius of Reversible Shredding
Ever wondered how one flat disc can give you two different results? It’s all down to clever engineering. The 'reversible' in the Waring reversible shredding disc WFP16S12 means each side of the disc has differently sized and angled blades. One side is designed to produce a fine, delicate shred – perfect for things like coleslaw or finely grated carrots for a cake. When your recipe calls for something more substantial, you simply switch off the machine, flip the disc over, and lock it back in place. The other side gives you a much coarser, more robust shred, which is ideal for potato rosti, chunky vegetable slaws, or shredded cheese for melting on top of a dish. It’s like having two specialist tools, but it only takes up the space of one.
