The key to a good crêpe is a good crêpe maker, and the key to a good crêpe maker is high temperature distributed and maintained evenly on a quality cast iron surface, allowing you to achieve the signature colouration of a great crêpe and be able to make batches quickly without having to adjust the temperature all the time. But how do you build one? Solving this question became the obsession of the Briton Jean-Marie Bosser. Brittany is the northwestern part of France and also widely recognized as the birthplace of crêpe making. In 1949, by combining precision temperature con- trol with a superior cooking surface, this crêpe-loving Briton not only achieved his goal but also created Krampouz, which is now the premier manufacturer of profes- sional crêpe makers in France. Heat dis- tribution, temperature stability, quality of the cooking surface, safety and comfort- able working conditions were the found- ing design criteria of the products then as they are now. The continuous search for perform- ances in cooking equipment has enabled K rampo uz (C o nt'd. fro m p. 1 ) the company to make a name for itself as the leader in crêpe maker production and to diversify its offering to other batter cooking equipment such as waffles and churros makers. The ability of Krampouz equipment to satisfy the expectations of users has led the company to expand throughout the world and is now firmly implanted and recognized as an industry leader in Europe, North and South America, Asia, Africa and Australasia. One-hundred percent designed and assembled in France, the Krampouz crêpe and waffle maker range offers you the best possible solutions for your needs. Over 60 years of manufacturing experience and a constant attention to its customers' needs allows Krampouz to provide you the most innovative offer on the market. Patented EZ-Clean systems on waffle makers and professional 110v European cast iron crêpe maker are a few of the time saving and hygiene enhancing solutions you'll find with Krampouz.

Pathogens that develop from temperature and time abuse, placing foods in the "danger zone," are a leading cause. FoodSafety.gov clearly states that the way to prevention is through "Cook-Clean-Chill-Separate." These are basic measurement points in a well designed HACCP program. How do you start to implement these critical guidelines in your restaurant? Start with automating temperature taking where you can. Wireless sensors, not the kind that need to be drilled into refriger- ation walls, can be placed in all hot and cold hold stations. Choose a system that includes flexibility in sensor measure- ment devices, including humidity, IR, door open, food probes, etc. Next, auto- mate your labeling process. An optimal Food Safety Platform will include a HACCP tool that is completely real-time wireless. This platform delivers the ulti- mate in food safety implementation, monitoring and reporting. All these tools should work independently of an in- house PC and should be completely Fo o d Safety (C o nt'd. fro m p. 1 ) cloud/IoT accessible. There are many options on the mar- ket that offer one or two of these features. Integrated Control offers everything you need for a fully integrated solution. The newest product in its suite is the all new Scan'n' Temp. Scan'n' Temp combines temperature and barcode reading capabil- ity in one handheld tool. Wirelessly, the device reports HACCP activity in real time and records all necessary parame- ters required to meet regulatory and health code requirements. The device also wirelessly communicates with the accessory automated label printer to meet the needs of prep, display, inventory and grab'n'go requirements. Consistency in compliance, per- formance and implementation is the key to surviving the food safety jungle. The best approach to tackling this complexi- ty: find one simple platform, and the Scan'n'Temp, Temp Minder family of products is a great all-in-one choice.
