Professional Training Kitchen

Our training kitchen is used by small to large organisations for the purpose of training team members to use and operate commercial kitchen ovens:

  • CiBO – oven
  • Lincat – Opus Combi Steamer
  • Rational – SelfCookingCenter®

If you are considering investing in one or more of the above ovens for your kitchen, then please feel free to contact us to discuss a live demonstration in our training kitchen; this is a great way to get a real appreciation of the functionality and benefits these units deliver.


CiBO – demonstration oven

If you’re thinking of investing in a CiBO oven for your business, then our ‘try before you buy’ session gives you the chance to do exactly that. It’s an opportunity to visit our training kitchen and use the CiBO to see just how quick and simple the oven is to use prior to making your decision to buy.


Lincat Training – Opus Combi Steamer

A Lincat oven offers your kitchen an array of time-saving and energy efficient benefits however, the process of learning how to make the most of its many applications can seem daunting and, on the surface, potentially time-consuming.

Our training is centred on the Lincat Opus Combi Steamer and is delivered by Lincat oven specialists. The training is a hands-on demonstration of the ovens capabilities and aims to give you the knowledge and confidence to make the most effective and efficient use of your Opus Combi Steamer. You will get to learn about the whole host of cooking and cleaning activities the Opus Combi Steamer can undertake and how the Opus Combi Steamer can work best for you.

You’ll learn how to make the Opus Combi Steamer a fully-fledged member of your kitchen team so that it can:

  • Automatically detect the size and quantity of the product to determine cooking time
  • Instantly adjust heat and moisture levels
  • Monitor the food’s browning and the product’s cooked-status
  • Automatically clean itself

Following the course our experts will always be on hand to assist you with any questions you may have.

We have clients who prefer to send kitchen team members to us for hands-on training prior to working in their live kitchen; this is a great benefit when it comes to keeping the normal kitchen work-flow uninterrupted, and supports:

  • Familiarisation for new team members
  • New menu item rollouts
