COMBITHERM®

THE COMBITHERM®FROM ALTO-SHAAM
It brin s more to the table – and more to your kitchen – than ever before.
it bakes it roasts it smokes
it oven-fries it steams it retherms
Here’s your challenge: Make your foodservice operation more efficient while improving
product quality and driving down costs.
Here’s your solution: The EcoSmart™Combitherm ovens from Alto-Shaam. In fact, no other
combi oven—and certainly no other single appliance—provides your kitchen with so much
versatility, reliability and performance.
The Combitherm is ideal for every application: From a la carte to volume production for
banquets or institutions. And because it tackles so many menu assignments, it eliminates
the need for two, maybe even three, separate appliances. You save space without
sacrificing results, utility or efficiency.
Gold-n-Brown™adds rich, even color and a
crisp, crunchy texture.
Select from three steam settings:
Automatic, Quick, and Low Temp.
Use retherm mode for fast, thorough bulk
food or plate regeneration.
Precise temperature and uniform heat flow
for perfect results time after time.
Prepare tender and juicy meats. Automatic
humidity control helps maximize yield.
Combitherm’s exclusive smoking feature
offers the versatility of hot- or cold-smoked
food preparation.

more cooking versatility.
more menu variety.
The all-in-one solution. Combitherm does it all. It’s a steamer
that lets you poach salmon or steam vegetables without
sacrificing delicate flavor. It’s a convection oven that circulates
hot air and browns food – including many foods that once
required frying. And, of course, it’s a combi oven that makes
it easy to combine steam and convection heat to cook meat,
fish and poultry up to 50% faster.
Exclusive smoking feature. Plus, the Combitherm is the only
combi oven on the market featuring our patented* smoking
feature. So now you can use Combitherm to prepare everything
from cold-smoked salmon to spareribs.
*U.S. Patent 7,157,668
Wide selection means you can choose a Combitherm
that matches your application needs precisely.
Choose gas or electric models. Choose
floor-standing models or countertop units.
Or choose two or more Combitherms to
accommodate a wider variety of cooking
functions simultaneously. Stack one
Combitherm on top of another – or stack
your Combitherm with an Alto-Shaam
convection or cook/hold oven – for additional
space savings.
and it’s from alto-shaam
Intelligent design that responds to the needs of our customers.
Innovative performance features. Legendary craftsmanship and
dependability. This is why people rely on Alto-Shaam. It’s why
you can be certain Combitherm ovens will exceed the quality
you demand in your equipment.
All Combitherm ovens are designed and built in the U.S.A.

18 models to choose from
EcoSmart™products
demonstrate our
commitment to greener,
more energy-efficient
technology.

EcoSmart system technology is your assurance that Combitherm
ovens are designed to drive down ownership costs and minimize
environmental impact.
For instance, the Combitherm seals in the steam used for cooking
cycles. So Combitherm uses 70% less water than conventional
combi ovens. That’s because, unlike “open system” oven design,
steam has no direct escape route.
Plus, Combitherm steam levels are adjusted automatically.
Adjustments are based on oven temperature and product load to
simplify operation and take any guesswork out of control settings.
The EcoSmart system also admits less cold air into the cooking
chamber. High temperatures are easier to maintain, temperature
fluctuations are kept to a minimum, and faster cooking times
are achieved. Savings from more efficient use of gas, electricity
and water also contribute to a faster ROI.
boiler-free design
All gas Combitherms (and select electric models) feature a
“boiler-free” design. Boiler and steam generator maintenance is
completely eliminated. There’s also no need for generator
flushing, water reservoirs or level controls.

THE ECOSMART™ADVANTAGE
Good for the environment. Great for your bottom line.

combitherm smoker
Combitherm is the only combi oven offering
complete smoking capability in addition to standard
combi cooking modes. Available in more than ten of our
boiler-free models, our patented smoking feature gives
you the ability to smoke any product – hot or cold.
Plus, the Combitherm can go from smoker mode to
steaming with no flavor carryover.
the gold-n-brown
finishing touch
Now you can actually cook high-moisture products –
including poultry and french fries – to a lovely and
even golden brown without the fuss, fats or health
concerns associated with deep fat frying.
steam vents automatically
Our patented Automatic Steam Venting safety feature
helps eliminate incidental burns. All steam is vented from
the oven moments before cooking time expires.
haccp documentation
Combitherm ovens feature built-in interfaces to
accommodate HACCP documentation software. So
every detail of each cooking procedure can be thoroughly
documented in accordance with HACCP criteria.
All relevant information is recorded and stored, and is
accessible from one or more computer stations.
Information can then be stored and displayed in a
detailed overview for evaluation and printing.
web-based documentation
with kitchen management
With HACCP/Kitchen Management software you can
now manage multiple pieces of equipment in the fully
integrated kitchen. Plus, the software offers full NAFEM
Data Protocol compliance with real time data transfer and
automated logging. Wireless option is also available.
Smoke any food item – hot or cold – with the patented Combitherm Smoker.
Gold-n-Brown™makes it easy to brown food and achieve a crispy texture – without the
use of unhealthy fats or oils.
HACCP documentation is displayed in a detailed overview for evaluation and printing.
WHAT MAKES COMBITHERM®DIFFERENT?

What is Rack Management? First developed by Alto-Shaam,
it’s an easier and more efficient way to prepare and hold foods
in high-volume applications. And one of Rack Management’s key
components is the Combitherm.
®
The Rack Management system is a thoroughly integrated
approach to high-volume food production. It uses interchangeable
roll-in carts to transfer pans or plates of food from station to
station. Menu items can be rolled into the Combitherm, cooked,
and then moved to an Alto-Shaam QuickChiller™for up to five
days of refrigerated storage.
Once removed from the QuickChiller, prepared foods can then be
plated, rolled back to the Combitherm for retherming, and then
placed in a Halo Heat®CombiMate®holding cabinet.
Rack Management is a simple and efficient way to streamline
production and reduce labor costs. It simplifies menu preparation,
letting you prepare many items outside of peak production
periods. Plus, it helps enhance food safety by reducing the risks
associated with food handling and cross contamination.
Food is prepared
ahead of time in
the Combitherm.
Once cooked, food
can be removed from
the Combitherm, then
chilled and stored in
the QuickChiller.
As serving time nears,
food is placed back
into the Combitherm
for retherming.
Rethermed food
can be placed in
the Halo Heat
CombiMate holding
cabinet until ready
to serve.
