The B21 is a 5-pot electric bain-marie for warming and holding prepared food at service temperature. It uses a water bath system to maintain even heat distribution across five separate stainless steel pots. Operated in buffets, cafeterias, hotels, and full-service restaurants during peak meal periods.
Commercial Application
This unit sits in front-of-house buffet lines or back-of-house expediting stations. It keeps sauces, vegetables, proteins, and side dishes at safe serving temperature without direct heat exposure. Staff transfer cooked food from production areas into the five pots for extended hold times during service windows.
The water bath prevents scorching and maintains moisture content in prepared dishes. Each pot holds food independently, allowing simultaneous service of different menu items at consistent temperatures. Operators refill pots as needed throughout breakfast, lunch, or dinner service without shutting down adjacent compartments.
