Catering Equipment Supplier - Cater-Kwik Ltd - Internet prices with traditional service

The sun is shining, the skies are blue and the beer gardens were packed this Bank Holiday weekend. That can only mean one thing: Summer is finally upon us! With the weather the warmest it has been in a long time, we hope it continues into the Summer months and that you’re fully equipped for it. We’re talking Fridges, Freezers, Ice Machines and Bottle Coolers.

Due to cider now being as popular as it’s ever been, every brand wants to be the best. A key component in creating the perfect pint of cider nowadays is a huge scoop of ice cubes in order to keep the drink at that optimum drinking temperature. What better to make that ice than our range of Commercial Ice Machines? With brands ranging from Cater-Ice to Hoshizaki to Scotsman, we have something guaranteed to suite you. If you’re looking for one at an unbeatable price, you’ll be sure to check out the Cater-Ice CK0825. With a 7kg capacity and an output of 25kg/24 hours, this is definitely a bargain not to be missed at just £219! Next on our list is the Hoshizaki range. If you’re looking for something that bit bigger, you’d be at a loss if you missed out the Hoshizaki IM45CNE Ice Machine Ice Machine. With a huge output of 44kg/24 hours and a capacity of 15kg, this machine is perfect for those requiring that larger quantity of ice. Being British-made, you’re guaranteed a quality machine at an amazing price of £1044. Finally, we give you the Scotsman Crystal Tips TP45. With a similar output to the Hoshizaki IM45CNE – 45kg/24 hours – the Scotsman TP45 has the advantage of a 20kg capacity. Producing dice shaped ice, this is available at just £698.40.

With the Ice Makers covered, the next set of equipment needed for those hot Summer days are Fridges and Freezers. If you’re looking for something at a lower cost, the Cater-Cool CK107 Freezer and the Cater-Cool CK1072 Fridge are ideal for you. At just £372 and £349 respectively, these machines a capacity of over 300 litres and a room for up to 5 shelves, meaning storage of produce is available at a low price.  If you’re looking for something that bit more up-market, you’ll be looking for the likes of a Gram or a Foster machine. In terms of Gram, any machine is a perfect investment, but for something well-priced and full of quality components, look no further than the Compact range. Products such as the K410 LG (£617.76), K410 RG (£758.16) and the K610 RG (£1315.28) Upright Fridges and F410 LG (£659.88), F410 RG (£800.28) and F610 RG (£1500.53) Upright Freezers will all assure you quality performance and reliablity. In terms of Foster, a quality Upright Freezer goes by the name of the FSL 400 L, available at £1064.90 and the matching Upright Fridge, the FSL 400 H, available at £946.45, are both machines designed to perform at the very best. Picking between a Gram and a Foster may be difficult due to the fact they’re both brilliant brands, however Gram’s 5 years parts and labour warranty may sway the decision!

So your food is stored away nicely in the Fridges and Freezers and the ice is stored in the Ice Machine, there is only one piece of equipment left on the list: a Bottle Cooler. For something well-priced, well-built and guaranteed to run well, the Cater-Cool range does exactly that. One of our most popular sellers, the range features the CK0500 Single Door Cooler at just £239, it’s Silver partner, the CK1500 at the same price, the CK0501 Double Hinged Door Bottle Cooler at £295 and its Silver version, CK1501 at the same price, both of these machines with sliding doors at the same price, the Black CK0502 and the Silver CK1502, the Triple Door LH0503 at £429 and the Upright Single Door CK2000 at £399. If you’re looking for something British-made, check out the Autonumis range. All their coolers come with a 2 years parts and labour warranty, something our competitors don’t offer, yet we still manage to offer the best price online!

Welcome to the second part of ‘Commercial Coffee Machines & Grinders With A Helpful Guide’.

In Part 1 of this article, we primarily looked at grinders - in particular the La Pavoni ZIP Commercial Coffee Grinder - with La Pavoni having some of the best equipment in the business. We also looked at the importance of a good cup of coffee, and the other equipment that plays a big part in this process.

In this section, we are going to be concentrating on the actual Coffee Machine itself. We at Caterkwik are passionate about the products we sell, and take pride knowing that our customers receive the best quality we can offer at competitive prices. The La Pavoni PUB 2M 2 Group Semi-automatic Espresso Machine certainly falls into this category, and we will be mainly paying attention to this. However, there are plenty more variations of machines to suit various budgets, and these can be found here.

For over 100 years, espresso machines have been hand-built in Milan by the creator of commercial coffee machines La Pavoni, who are responsible for some of the best coffee machines in the industry.

Italian Made!

Some of the main features of this superb machine are as follows:

•  Semi automatic operation.
•  Push button indicator light.
•  Press-forged nickeled brass groups with vertical infusion chamber & pressurisation system.
•  Fully removable water tank.
•  Electropump.
•  Control switch & electrovalve.
•  One hot water tap.
•  One flexible steam jet.
•  Automatic boiler water level control.
•  Installation kit.

Colour option of Red or Black and a boiler capacity of 6 litres! An option of full installation with valuable & in depth training on how to use the machine in the correct way, you can already see the value for money the La Pavoni PUB 2M 2 Group Semi-automatic Espresso Machine would bring to your establishment.

A specification sheet can be viewed here & a manual sheet for the product can be found here.

Now we can spend a little time looking at the actual espresso and the different types of drinks that can be produced from the espresso, and a little guide with tips on how to master the art of making that perfect beverage for your customers.

The Espresso

The espresso is the very heart of a coffee. It forms the base for all drinks, and it is very important that it is made to the right standard. The layer on top ‘crema’ can be used as a guide to the quality of the espresso underneath. Too pale and thin means its too weak and watery, and too dark means it’s burnt and bitter.

To get the consistency right, we can go back to the 1st part of this guide and the importance of having the right Grinder to go with your machine. If the grinder is used correctly, you will be able to get the right consistency of the coffee powder that is produced.

Making an espresso is obviously the simplest of the beverages, as its a single shot of coffee on its own. It’s always best to heat the cup with hot water first, so this keeps the drink nice and hot when produced. Dispense the coffee grind into your handle and tamp with attitude so its nice and flat. Wipe any loose grind off the rim of the handle. Place the handle back into the coffee machine with your cup underneath (minus the hot water), and begin extraction. And there you go, your espresso has been produced.

There are many types of beverages you can create now you know how the espresso is produced:

• Macchiato (Espresso topped with a dash of milk froth).
• Espresso con panna (Espresso topped with whipped cream).
• Americano (Espresso with hot water).
• Caffe Latte (Milky, smooth coffee).
• Cappuccino (Made with frothed milk).
• Flat White (Rich, full flavoured with a unique velvety smooth texture).
• Mocha (Chocolaty cappuccino).

Top Tips

• Always guide the lever on your grinder back into place. Never let go as this could quickly damage or break.
• Flush the group head if not used for 5 minutes or more, this will ensure the water is the right temperature.
• Warm cups before use.
• Check flow of espresso to make sure its correct.
• Don’t put coffee in group handle until required.
• Tamp the coffee with attitude.
• Use milk straight from the fridge for frothing.
• Never heat milk above 160°F.
• Always clean steam arm.
• Never re-heat milk.

I hope this short guide has at least been a little helpful, and given you an insight into why it is important to have good quality coffee machines & grinders.

La Pavoni coffee machines start at just £859 excluding VAT. If these don’t suit your needs or budget, we do have other quality machines starting at just £480 excluding VAT so it’s a good time to take advantage of these fabulous prices.

But with the new Astrella, there is one noticeable difference: the 2 intermediate shelves! With  5 different width options available, the machine is able to squeeze into tighter spaces. As well as the standard 1005mm, 1505mm and 2005mm width machines, the Astrella range also includes machines with a width of 1205mm and 1705.

When the temperature is as cold outside as it has been in the past few days, many like to stay at home, go out for a hearty meal at a nice restaurant or head to their local pub to keep out the chill. When at home, the fridge and freezer is our friend and a nice cold drink is always on hand when needed. But when heading out, what is more annoying than a warm drink – no matter what the temperature is outside? The best way to keep customers happy is to have plenty of ice ready to keep those drinks flowing: be it a jug of table water, a large glass of fruit juice, a pint of cola, a spirit and mixer, a refreshing cocktail or a glass of ice for a bottle of cider, ice is a necessity in nearly all drinks!

Most workers behind the bar or in the kitchen will agree that an Ice Machine that rapidly produces plenty of ice cubes is the best thing to have around: something strong, sturdy and speedy. Something like Scotsman. In fact, just Scotsman! The range of Ice Machines by Scotsman is like that of no other. Be it the Crystal Tips range, the modular machines or the Supercubers, we have an Ice Machine that is exactly suited to you.

For a Premium Ice Machine at a cheaper cost, check out the Crystal Tips range. Products including the TP25, TP45, TP55, TP75 and TP105 are all available at amazing prices. With the number at the end of the ‘TP’ representing how many kilograms of ice are produced per 24 hours, you can see exactly how impressive these machines are! At value prices such as £659 for the TP25 model or £1489 for the TP105 model, the amount of ice you can produce for such a low price is phenomenal. Not only do they produce a vast amount of dice-shaped ice, they are also easy to clean, operate and maintain, an added bonus on both the Crystal Tips and the rest of the Scotsman range.

Next up on the list are the MASSIVE Scotsman Modular Ice Machines and they are massive! With the smallest machine – the MV306 – boasting an immense 140 kilogram output per 24 hours. With prices starting at just £2249 for the MV306 and rising all the way up to the enormous MC1210 which produces 660 kilograms of ice per 24 hours!

Why not take advantage of the excellent offer we now have on the Supercuber range? Thanks to the nice people at Scotsman, we’re giving away a free filter with the purchase of any Supercuber Ice Machines. With prices starting at just £664 for the ACM46 (24 kilogram output per 24 hours) it would be silly not to take advantage of the offer!

It isn’t just the Supercubers range the free water filters apply to, it’s also the Supercubers – Easy Fit range. These machines fit pretty much anywhere (disclaimer: depending on the space you have to work with!) and come as standard with an integral drain waste pump. For an extra £130, the Easy Fit equivalent to the ACM46 - the EC46 – could be yours!

If it’s an Ice Flaker you’re looking for, we also offer these too. the Scotsman AF80 and AF103 produce 70 kilograms and 85 kilograms of flaked ice per 24 hours yet are priced at just £1814 and £2275 respectively.

Following on from the previous blog on Commercial Bottle Coolers, we appreciate that not all of you are keen on keeping cool this winter. Instead, many would prefer to avoid the bars and restaurants and relax with a nice brew. What better way to keep customers happy than by ensuring the brews keep coming and coming with our vast selection of Commercial Water Boilers? From Cater-Brew to Instanta and Lincat to Marco, we have all types of Water Boilers from Manual Fill to Wall Mounted and everything in between!

If you’re looking for the UK’s best priced Automatic Water Boiler, look no further than the Cater-Brew CK0233 20 Litre Automatic Water Boiler, priced at just £179! Used by 1000′s of establishments such as schools, football clubs and cafe’s, this tried and tested, reliable machine is an excellent addition to any industry.

For a more up-market, premium Water Boiler, be sure to check out Instanta and Marco. Prices range from £120 for the Marco 10 Litre Manual Fill Water Boiler to the £2500 BEAST – the Instanta MOD18 Bulk Water Boiler! So what does £2500 get you that any other Water Boiler doesn’t? Well, a minimum of 204 litres – that’s an average of 1224 cups – an hour! But if you’re looking for something a bit smaller – both in size and price – then both Marco and Instanta have the perfect machines for you.

If you’re looking for an Instanta, by far the most popular Water Boilers are the Instanta WA5N Wall Mounted Water Boiler and the Instanta 1501F Counter Top Water Boiler. The Instanta WA5N is an excellent edition to the kitchen due to the fact it is Wall Mounted. If you’re looking to produce a high volume of boiling water whilst still paying a reasonable price, this is definitely the machine for you!

The Instanta 1501F Counter Top Water Boiler produces 1 litre more than the Instanta WA5N: 28 litres. The Instanta 1501F also has the useful feature of a built-in Water Filter, allowing you to monitor the machine depending on your water hardness! With an optional rear drain connection and a modern LCD read-out, the Instanta 1501F Water Boiler could be yours for the small sum of £346!

When it comes to Marco, the machines and prices are equally as impressive. For a mere £266 – yes, £266! – the ever-popular Marco T10 Automatic Water Boiler does everything needed from a Water Boiler. It boils water for a start (handy) – 28 litres an hour of it! At an extra cost (POA) you can turn this amazing Freestanding Water Boiler into a Wall Mounted Water Boiler with the handy Wall Mounted Bracket. The biggest advantage  - and one we know you’ll truly appreciate – is the saving made. In comparison to similar sized Water Boilers on the market, the Marco T10 saves you £40 on annual running costs! If it’s Manual Fill you’re looking for, check out Marco’s 10 Litre Manual Fill Water Boiler.

Whether it’s thin crust, stuffed crust, deep pan, round, square or even calzone style, pizza is a culinary favourite all over the world.  Not many people know this, but according to Italian law, a proper pizza isn’t just food: it’s a thing of love! The rules state that the dough should be soft, kneaded by hand and not by using a rolling pin and left to sit for 6 hours, prior to the correct ingredients being added before the finished product is cooked in a traditional Wood-Fired Oven. Italian pizza’s that comply with this laws are given an GTS (Guaranteed Traditional Speciality label), making them ‘proper pizzas’!

But what’s this got to do with Caterkwik? Well, the dough certainly doesn’t as we don’t sell any of that. Britain certainly doesn’t have any pizza laws so we don’t expect you to have 6 hours to stare at walls whilst the dough ‘perfects’. And we don’t sell any sun-blessed tomatoes or Mozzarella cheese so the ingredients don’t matter.

So really, the first paragraph didn’t matter – but the blog starts now with the introduction of Wood-Fired Pizza Ovens! They do matter to us and with a whole range of them on sale at Caterkwik, we agree with the Italians, that they really are the best things to cook pizza in. With a whole range of Wood-Fired, Gas and Wood-Gas Fired Pizza Ovens from Bulgarian company AS Term for sale, this is the perfect opportunity to create a little bit of Napoli in your kitchen!

There’s that many to choose from, we feel you’ll be best looking at them for themselves by clicking here for the Wood-Gas Fired Ovens, here for the Gas Ovens or here for the Wood-Fired Ovens. A couple of examples to tell you about though are the AS Term G100C Gas Fired Oven and the AS Term DR85K Wood Fired Rotating Pizza Oven.

With room for 4 12″ pizzas and an average output of 60 pizzas an hour, the AS Term G100C Gas Fired Pizza Oven really is an amazing piece of kit. At just £4749, the heavy duty chamber alone is well worth the money. Made using refractory metals with a high aluminium oxide content, the machine is extremely strong and water resistant. Heat is also saved using very thick insulation, thus saving you time and money through the cooking of pizza. Another key point is that the temperature of the machine can be controlled through a simple remote control, allowing you to manage how long you want to spend cooking the pizza depending on how much time you have. For example, temperature can be lowered during quieter periods yet pumped straight back up during those busy schedules!

The AS Term DR85K Wood Fired Rotating Pizza Oven is another special machine. With a capacity for 5 12″ pizzas and an output of 75 pizzas an hour, the AS Term DR85K’s unique rotating oven really pays off. With the choice of a red or brown mosaic finish, this stunning machine is a work of art as well as one of the best Pizza Ovens on the market! Due to the pizzas cooking in a wood-fired rotating chamber, every inch of pizza is fully heated as it spins round whilst absorbing the wood smoke. This feature gives it that authentic and crisp tastes the Italians are ever so proud of, ensuring your customers come crawling back for more and more!

To see the amazing AS Term DR85K Wood Fired Rotating Pizza Oven in action, please don’t hesitate to call or email our excellent sales team (see details below) and we will arrange for you to take a trip to the Wilsons Arms in Torver, Coniston, where the AS Term DR85K continually produces arguably some of the best pizzas around!

So if you don’t have 6 hours to create the dough or enough time to get a flight to Italy in order to find the ‘right’ picked tomatoes and for the right cheese to form, then purchasing an AS Term Pizza Oven is the next best thing. Trust me, they’re that good, the Italians won’t know the difference once they’ve tasted the pizza!

For more information on any of the AS Term Pizza Ovens – or any other product you see on our site – please don’t hesitate to call out knowledgeable and friendly sales team on 01229 480001 or send us an email at info@caterkwik.co.uk and we’ll be sure to get back to you.

Another amazing offer to start the year with is on the Electrolux 371173 6 Burner Oven. Despite the generous £500 discount we knocked off it earlier last year, we’re now throwing in a FREE 1 metre 1/2″ Gas Hose. Something that would normally set you back £58, the 1 metre 1/2″ Gas Hose is a very useful piece of equipment, something we know you’ll truly appreciate.

A special offer we are really excited about is the new Cuppone Pizza Package. Those in the Pizza game will know that the 3 key steps to creating that perfect pizza are the mixing of the dough, the pressing of the base and the way the oven cooks it. Thanks to Cuppone, we’re giving you the chance to purchase the ultimate secret weapon that will keep your customers crawling back for more and more pizza – the Cuppone Pizza Package! With 20 different packages available, each 1 contains a Cuppone Dough Mixer, a Cuppone Pizza Press and a Cuppone Pizza Oven, all of which would normally cost you well over £14,000 at least. But with this special offer, we’re giving them away at a starting price of £13,750, with savings ranging from £193 to £744! Make 2013 the year of the pizza at your establishment!
