Running on a standard 13 amp plug, it combines microwave energy with forced air impingement to cook, reheat and finish food significantly faster than conventional oven methods. The three-tier cavity with rotating turntable supports even heat distribution across the food, and the easyTouch icon-driven touchscreen allows operators to store and recall menu programmes with minimal training.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a busy service environment — a café counter, pub kitchen, convenience store, or hospitality back-of-house — the E3EE earns its place by turning around hot food consistently during peak periods.
