Product Overview

  • Fill with ice and water with ease using the wide mouth design
  • Helps to maintain HACCP compliance standards

  • Innovative cooling fins provide large surface area for faster chilling

Quickly and easily cool foods from the "inside out" with this two pack of Vigor Polar Paddle 4 liter; (135 oz.) blue cooling paddles

These cooling paddles are a great way to rapidly cool soups and other foods that can't go into a blast chiller, especially in taller stock pots and large batches. Their smooth exterior makes it easy to remove foods to reduce waste, while also ensuring the paddles are easy to clean and sanitize. For best results, do not use in temperatures greater than 195 degrees Fahrenheit or less than -20 degrees Fahrenheit. To preserve the life of your paddles, fill with ice and water and use immediately. It is recommended to fill the units entirely with ice, then add cold water at or below the max fill line to fill in the voids around the ice cubes. If you want to freeze your paddles ahead of time, fill the paddles with water at or below the max fill line, and NEVER exceed the line. Place the paddles in the freezer on their sides to allow for optimal space for the water to expand. Once frozen using either method, the product can be used to bring the food temperature through the temperature danger zone (41 degrees F - 135 degrees F).

How to Use

Easily fill the wide mouths with ice and water. Then, place the paddles in your piping hot foods while stirring for 3-5 minutes to rapidly bring them out of the temperature danger zone. Refrigerate your foods with the paddles inside and check the temperature every 20 minutes with a thermometer. Once cooled to 41 degrees Fahrenheit, remove the paddles and store your foods until ready for service. To avoid spills and messes, you can use a food safe plastic bag with this paddle while storing it or chilling it in the fridge. Do not fill product past the max fill line as this has been proven to cause cracking.

Preferred Fill Method

It is recommended to fill the paddles with ice and water and use them immediately. To do this, fill the paddles with ice all the way to the top and then fill with water at or below the max fill line. When using this method, avoid putting the paddles in the freezer. This quick, convenient method allows for fast filling and immediate use of the paddles, eliminating the need to wait for the paddles to freeze. The paddles' wide mouth design makes it easy to fill with ice and water.

Freezer Fill Method

Users also have the option to fill the paddles with water only, and then freeze them. To use this method, fill the paddles with water at or below the max fill line. You should never exceed this line. Then, freeze the paddles on their sides to allow for enough expansion into the neck of the paddles. Allow 24 hours for the paddles to become completely frozen. Please note that the water and ice method is preferred, as this method will shorten the life of the paddle.

Durable Construction

These cooling paddles are made of durable polycarbonate to stand tough against freezing-heating cycles. Innovative cooling fins provide maximum surface area for faster chilling to reduce the amount of time foods are in the temperature danger zone.

No More Lost Caps

The tethered design of the easy-screw caps adds convenience and ensures they never get lost or mistakenly thrown out. This paddle is an essential component for HACCP compliance in any commercial kitchen.

Junk! I bought 4 of these to keep cold brew coffee cold throughout the day. I filled to the indicated line and 2 cracked by the 3rd Dan and the other 2 only lasted a week. I will have to find another solution as I had thought these were better quality.

Really wanted to like these, but as others have said they will crack. even tried to fill the latest two well below the fill line and the same result. We only got about 3 weeks out of one and 5 from the other.

Cracked within about 2 weeks of use. The quality of the plastic is obviously terrible given other similar reviews and that this appears to be a common problem. Don't waste your money.

Waste of money. I had previously purchased the 'hotel pan' version and it burst. Assuming that my staff did something wrong, I purchased this one and have been the only one using it, never passing the 'fill line' and never allowing it to fall. It still broke. I am not even sure what to do next but I am very unhappy.

they all breaks even I fill the water at the max line and not go over it. I have thrown about 8-10 of them away because they break after few uses. That is $ down the drain.

There is a defect with this product where the lid is not able to be fully screwed on tight so there is always water leaking out of the side of the lid. This makes it very difficult to use as a cooling paddle if you are putting water in and then freezing it. Most freezers do not have the space to put this upright while freezing so there will be water leaking out which makes a mess in the freezer.

Thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry you did not prefer this product. For recommendations, please contact our Customer Solutions team.

These are great! The paddle is used to cool down our homemade sauces, and also used at the end of the night to cool all product off the kitchen line. Perfect size to use for all kinds of different products you need to cool down.

The Vigor Polar Paddle (4L) has worked great for us! It is very helpful when cooling down liquids to reach safe storage temperatures. The wide opening makes it easy to fill with cubed ice so there is no waiting on water to freeze before use. Great product!

Works great to cool down soups and sauces that need to get refrigerated ASAP. It's large so works best for larger quantities. Easy to store. We just stick it in the corner of our walk in freezer and then it's ready for the next time we need it!

Thick plastic so it doesn't break and helps cool down the product quickly! Lid stays on tightly and is compact so it doesn't take up too much space!
