The MEHEN MB12T is a high-capacity Blast Freezer / Blast Chiller designed for Gelato shops, bakeries, hotels, restaurants, central kitchens, and professional food production facilities. The machine rapidly chills or freezes food products, quickly reducing the core temperature to the desired level. This process minimizes the formation of large ice crystals, helping preserve the product's texture, flavor, color, and nutritional value.
In Gelato production, the MEHEN MB12T plays a vital role immediately after the Gelato is discharged from the Batch Freezer. The rapid freezing process creates a protective hardened outer layer that preserves the Gelato's smooth texture, ideal overrun, and serving consistency while preventing melting and ice crystal formation during storage. In addition to Gelato, the MB12T is ideal for blast chilling and blast freezing mousse cakes, cream cakes, pastries, seafood, meat, prepared foods, and a wide variety of other food products.
Constructed with premium stainless steel inside and out, the MEHEN MB12T features high-density thermal insulation and a high-efficiency forced-air cooling system that ensures uniform cold air distribution throughout the cabinet. Its digital electronic controller supports both time-based and core temperature-based programs and works together with a food core temperature probe to provide precise control of the chilling and freezing process. Once the cycle is completed, the machine automatically switches to storage mode, reducing energy consumption while maintaining optimum product quality.
