This video will help you learn the main differences between Vollrath's Mirage Pro and Mirage Cadet induction cookers. Basic functions and features are also covered.
Richard: Welcome to Vollrath University, Vollrath's education center for the food service industry. My name is Richard Rupp and today I have with me, John Wojcik, the director of equipment marketing here at Vollrath. Today we're going to talk about induction cooking, and we have two models that John will talk to you a little about the features and benefits, and a little later we'll show you some uses for these two models.
John: Hello. Today we'll be talking about new products from Vollrath, the new Mirage Pro and the new Mirage Cadet. At Vollrath we feature in-house design, in-house development, and in-house manufacturing, which ensures the highest quality products in the induction industry. In addition, we partner with top customers, top chefs, and top culinary schools to put together the proper specs to make this a practical food service piece of equipment.
Let me tell you about the new Mirage Pro. The new Mirage Pro features the new G4 engine. The G4 engine has four IGBTs or four switches which gives it incredible temperature control and incredible durability, so durable that there's a two year warranty on this product. The way that the unit works is you turn the unit on. The display will say, add pan. So you would add an induction-ready pan to it, it'll sense the pan and then you'll actually see a value. This value is the temperature which is 80 degrees Fahrenheit. We've increased the range to the lower range of 80 degrees for tempering chocolate or for actually keeping chocolate warm. It also has a timer that you can actually very quickly turn the temperature up or down, a rotary timer with indents so that it actually is a very high quality feel and it's easy to turn quickly. When you take the pan off, it'll say, add pan again. A unique new feature to this is if you have a non-induction ready pan, which is an aluminum pan, place the pan on the unit and it'll immediately say, bad pan, indicating that this is not an induction-ready unit. So some nice new features for the new Mirage Pro, including the new G4 engine with a two year warranty.
Now let's talk about the new Mirage Cadet. The Mirage Cadet has a new G1 engine, which has one IGBT. It's a more limited feature item than the Mirage Pro. You actually have, if you turn the unit on, you have 20 settings versus 100. You don't have a rotary knob. You basically have up, down, push button control. So this is going to be used for more limited menu items, like an omelet station. Something that doesn't require all the cooking techniques of the Mirage Pro.
Make your fajitas sizzle with the Vollrath Mirage 59500F fajita induction heater! Featuring a low-profile, compact design, this completely portable induction heater is designed specifically for heating cast iron, induction-ready skillets to sizzling temperatures, so you can then add oil or water to create the alluring sizzle effect.
Combining form with functionality, its durable 18 gauge type 304 stainless steel casing looks sharp and, along with the vitro ceramic top, is extremely easy to clean. Its digital controls offer easy one-touch, push button operation of pre-programmed heating settings for simple operation, while rubber feet prevent slipping for added safety.
This heater generates magnetic fields to directly heat the pan for quick and safe heating. A room temperature pan can be heated to 450-550 degrees Fahrenheit in as quickly as 120 seconds, while a "HOT" warning displays if the unit is still hot when turned off.
This Vollrath 59500F fajita skillet induction heater comes equipped with a variety of other safety features, too! Auto shutoff prevents overheating when the pan is empty or absent from the range for a determined amount of time, while the small article detection feature eliminates the risk of heating objects such as watches and jewelry that may come in contact with the heating surface.
The unit comes with a cord and NEMA 5-15P plug. NSF, FCC, and UL Listed. Please consult the Specification Sheet for further installation requirements and electrical details.
