Bain Maries

Bain Maries

Maintaining the perfect serving temperature is critical in any food service operation. From bustling buffet lines to intimate cafe displays, holding food at a consistent, safe temperature protects its quality, flavour, and appeal. At AGC Catering Equipment, we provide professional-grade benchtop bain maries designed to meet the rigorous demands of the modern commercial kitchen. 

Our collection is built for reliability and performance, giving you the control you need to serve every dish exactly as intended. Discover the ideal solution for your hot food holding, specialised applications, and chilled displays right here.

 

Versatile General Use Bain Maries for Every Commercial Kitchen

The foundation of any successful hot food service is a dependable holding unit. Our selection of general-use models offers the flexibility your kitchen requires. You can find units that come complete with various pan configurations, allowing for immediate setup, or opt for base units that you can customise with your existing Gastronorm pans. 

Models featuring built-in taps simplify the cleaning process, a crucial time-saver during busy shifts. For delicate sauces or dishes requiring precise temperature management, a benchtop heated bain marie with thermostat control gives you the accuracy needed to prevent overcooking. Every kitchen operates differently, and our range provides the options to build a workflow that is efficient for your team.

Specialised Bain Maries for Unique Applications

Beyond standard buffet service, certain menus call for specialised equipment. Our range extends to units designed for very specific tasks, empowering chefs to perfect their unique offerings. This includes models with round pots, ideal for serving soups, stews, or curries while maintaining even heat distribution. 

For chocolatiers and patisseries, dedicated chocolate bain maries provide the gentle, consistent warmth necessary for melting and holding delicate chocolate without scorching. You can also find compact sauce warmers that keep your signature toppings and condiments ready for service. 

Cold Bain Maries for Chilled Food Displays

Just as important as keeping hot food hot is keeping cold food refreshingly chilled. Our collection of cold bain maries is engineered to maintain crisp, fresh, and safe cold food displays. These units are essential for presenting salads, yoghurts, fresh fruit, and desserts in a way that is both safe and visually appealing. 

A benchtop cold bain marie is the perfect solution for breakfast bars, salad stations, or dessert counters. For powerful and consistent cooling, a refrigerated benchtop bain marie uses advanced technology to hold products at optimal chilled temperatures, giving you peace of mind and your customers a superior dining experience.

Practical Accessories to Enhance Bain Marie Utility

The utility of your bain marie doesn't have to stop with the main unit. We offer a selection of practical accessories designed to maximise its versatility and adapt it to your specific menu. You can find specialised chicken trays that fit perfectly within double-row food bars, allowing for perfect presentation and service of roasted poultry. 

Additionally, single and double raised hobs can be fitted to your countertop units, creating an extra tier of space for holding or serving. These clever add-ons allow you to get more out of your equipment, optimising your valuable counter space and refining your service process. But there’s more!

Add-On Tray Races for Food Bar Functionality

Transform your countertop food display into a streamlined, self-service station with our functional add-on tray races. These simple yet effective accessories attach directly to your food bars, providing a convenient ledge for customers to place their trays as they move along the service line. 

This small addition dramatically improves traffic flow in canteens, cafeterias, and buffet restaurants, preventing congestion and making the selection process smoother for your guests. Available in various sizes to suit different food bar models, these tray races are a smart investment in operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
