Convotherm Mini easyTouch 6.06 Combi Oven

The Convotherm Mini easyTouch 6.06 is a full-function combi steamer designed for kitchens where bench or floor space is limited but the expectation of consistent, professional output is not. It handles steaming, convection, and combination cooking within a single compact unit, covering roasting, baking, grilling, regeneration, and au gratin work without requiring separate appliances for each task. The Mini name refers to its physical footprint — the cooking capability is not a compromise.

In sustained service, the 6.06 manages temperature and humidity consistently across the cavity, which matters when you are running the same product repeatedly through a lunch or dinner service. For a kitchen carrying a steady volume of covers, this oven can take on a significant share of the cooking load without the space demands of a full-size combi. Recovery between loads is reliable enough to support a continuous flow of service without meaningful hold-ups at the oven.

The easyTouch colour touchscreen uses a clear, logical layout and supports programmed cook cycles. That reduces reliance on skilled operation at the point of cooking — a practical advantage in kitchens with mixed-skill teams or higher staff turnover. Key operational benefits include:

• Compact footprint frees space for other equipment on bench or floor
• Full combi functionality removes the need for multiple single-purpose appliances
• Programmable cook cycles reduce operator error during busy service periods
• Large door window allows monitoring without opening and losing heat or humidity
• Finish and build quality suit open kitchen and pass-through environments

Installation requires an appropriate electrical supply, a cold water connection, and a drain. Water treatment or filtration suited to your local water hardness should be assessed before the unit goes in — scale build-up in combi steamers affects both cooking performance and the long-term reliability of internal components. Ventilation requirements will depend on your kitchen layout; a canopy or extract system is likely to be needed and should be confirmed with your installer before the unit is positioned. Allow adequate clearance for routine servicing as well as day-to-day access.

The 6.06 is well suited to smaller restaurants, cafés, pub kitchens, hotel room service operations, and similar sites where a full-size combi would represent more capacity than the kitchen can realistically use. It is also commonly used as a secondary oven in larger kitchens for overflow cooking or dedicated pastry and bakery work. Sites running consistently higher volumes or requiring larger tray formats should consider whether a higher-capacity model in the Convotherm range would be a closer match to their needs.
