Firex Cucimix Multipurpose Automated Cooker with Integrated Mixer

The Firex Cucimix is a 30-litre automated cooking system that combines a tilting bratt pan with an integrated continuous mixer. Rather than requiring a chef to stand over a batch and stir manually, the Cucimix handles the mixing process independently, allowing staff to manage other tasks while the machine maintains consistent movement through the cook cycle. It is designed for sites producing large quantities of sauces, soups, risottos, custards, mashed potato, ragù, and similar preparations where both heat and agitation are needed simultaneously.

In a busy production kitchen, the practical value of this type of machine lies in consistency and throughput. A chef can programme a cook cycle, set the mixer, and leave the unit to run — the result is the same product batch after batch, without the variation that comes from manual stirring or different members of staff managing the process differently. For kitchens under pressure during service or running extended production shifts, that degree of automation meaningfully reduces labour dependency on repetitive cooking tasks.

The operational advantages this type of equipment offers are worth considering carefully:

• Integrated mixing removes the need for a separate stand mixer or manual stirring during long cook cycles
• Automated processes reduce the skill level required for consistent batch production
• The tilting bratt pan design allows controlled pouring directly into gastronorm containers or transport vessels
• Stainless steel construction throughout supports hygiene standards and withstands daily commercial use
• Frees kitchen staff to focus on other preparation tasks during cook cycles

The Cucimix runs on a three-phase electrical supply, which is a firm installation requirement. Sites without three-phase provision would need an electrical upgrade before installation, and this should be confirmed with your electrician early in the planning process. At 95kg, the unit requires a solid, level floor surface and adequate access for delivery and positioning. Ensure your kitchen layout allows for the full tilting arc when the pan is in use.

This machine is well suited to central production kitchens, cook-chill operations, contract caterers, and large-scale hospitality sites where the same preparations are produced repeatedly in volume. It is less suited to smaller à la carte kitchens where batch sizes are low and the variety of output makes automation less practical. For sites requiring larger batch capacity, higher-output models are available in the Cucimix range.

If you are unsure whether the 30-litre capacity aligns with your production volumes, or want to discuss the installation requirements in more detail, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit to anything.
