Abstract

A system for storing food products at predetermined temperatures includes a food product receiving holding cabinet, a first storage bin in the holding cabinet for receiving a tray, a temperature control device that is in thermal communication with the tray, and a controller that transfers a selected timer by touching a user interface of the holding cabinet, thereby designating the selected timer for transfer to be associated with the first storage bin.

Description

[0001] Background of the Disclosure [0002] 1. Technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to apparatus for preserving food at a desired temperature while the food is waiting to be served to customers. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to an apparatus and associated method in a hot food holding cabinet to allow an operator to transfer a working holding timer across a network connection system of the hot food holding cabinet. [0004] 2. Background technology [0005] One of the major challenges in the commercial food service industry is delivering high quality food at the expected speed of service. One way to deliver high-quality food at the speed customers expect is to cook the food before it is ordered and then store the food in a thermal freezer. Various techniques can be utilized to preserve this food, from basic hot racks to infrared lights and convective airflow. Thermal holding cabinets maintain the quality of the food, allowing quality fo...
