Frequently asked questions
What does a rethermalizer do?

What is the difference between a rethermalizer and a food warmer?
A rethermalizer is designed to reheat food from cold, while a food warmer only keeps already-hot food hot.
What does rethermalization mean?
Rethermalization is the process of bringing pre-cooked food back up to serving temperature without overcooking it.
