Convotherm Mini easyTouch 6.06 Combi Oven

The Convotherm mini easyTouch 6.06 is a full-function combi steamer built for kitchens where bench or floor space is limited but the demand for consistent, high-quality cooking output is not. It handles steaming, convection, and combination cooking — along with roasting, baking, grilling, regeneration, and au gratin work — making it a genuinely versatile piece of equipment despite its compact footprint.

In service, the 6.06 performs well above what its size might suggest. The combi steamer function produces consistent results across the cavity, and the unit is designed to maintain temperature and humidity control through busy service periods. For a smaller kitchen turning covers steadily through lunch and dinner, this oven can carry a significant share of the cooking load without the space commitment of a full-size combi.

The easyTouch control system uses a colour touchscreen with a straightforward, intuitive interface. For kitchens with mixed-skill brigades or high staff turnover, this reduces training time and the risk of operating errors. Key practical advantages include:

• Compact width makes it suitable for tight kitchen layouts and front-of-house cooking stations
• Full combi steamer functionality without requiring a full-size unit
• Touchscreen control reduces reliance on skilled operation for programmed cook cycles
• Large viewing window allows monitoring without opening the door and losing heat
• High-quality finish makes it presentable in open kitchen or front cooking environments

Installation requires a suitable electrical supply and a water connection with a drain. The unit also needs a water treatment or filtration setup appropriate to your local water hardness — this is worth assessing before installation, as scale build-up affects both performance and longevity. Ventilation requirements should be confirmed with your installer; depending on your kitchen setup, a canopy or extract system may be needed. The compact width is a genuine advantage in tight spaces, but access for servicing should still be considered when positioning the unit.

The 6.06 is well suited to smaller restaurants, cafés, pub kitchens, hotel room service operations, and similar establishments where a full-size combi is more capacity than the kitchen requires. It is also commonly used as a second oven in larger kitchens handling overflow or specialist cooking. For operations with consistently higher volume or larger tray formats, a higher-capacity model in the range would be worth considering.
