Desco USA Pasta Cookers are the most versatile pasta cookers on the market today. Choose our traditional single burner model if you only cook fresh or dry pasta, or choose our new fast recovery double burner plus model if you also use frozen or semi-frozen products that can cause the water temperature to drop significantly. All of Desco USA’s pasta cookers can also be used to cook rice, vegetables, potatoes, meats, and seafood. Solid pans can be placed in the cooking tank to warm sauces, soups, and other liquids. Unlike some other "pasta cookers" originally designed as fryers, all of Desco USA’s units have been engineered specifically to cook pasta, in salt water, in the most efficient way possible.

Desco USA Traditional Single Burner Model Pasta Cookers

(CPG-1/45 and CPG-2/90)

Desco USA Single Burner Pasta Cookers are perfect for cooking fresh or dry pasta, or for rethermalizing up to 700 servings per hour. These cookers can also be used to cook rice, vegetables, potatoes, and seafood. Solid pans can be inserted into a cooking tank to hold sauces as well. Choose between the single or double tank models.

Each cooking tank is stamped from one piece of stainless steel. This seamless construction makes the tanks highly resistant to the corrosive effects of salted water. A blanket of ceramic fiber insulation wraps each tank, virtually eliminating hot surfaces while increasing efficiency and performance.

A high efficiency burner heats each cooking tank. The burner design concentrates a greater amount of heat at the rear of the tank creating a convective flow of water that eliminates the need for manual tossing or stirring of pasta while simultaneously shortening cooking times. This flow also moves undesirable starches to the skim drain located at the front of each tank keeping the cooking water starch-free. A straight line drain connection prevents clogs and is easy to clean.

A recent redesign of these models has also included a high temperature safety shut off mechanism that senses if the tank is overheating (most likely due to lack of water in the tank) and will cut power to the machine. This system will keep the tank from suffering severe damage if the burner is unintentionally left on after the cooking tank has been drained of water. This redesign has also led to both a manual and spark igniter being designed into the pasta cooker.

Desco USA Traditional Double Burner Plus Model Pasta Cooker Models

(CPG-1/45 PLUS and CPG-2/90 PLUS)

Desco USA Double Burner Plus Pasta Cookers give the operator almost double the amount of BTUs per tank (80,000) than our traditional model. This creates a much faster recovery time, which allows the operator the freedom to cook frozen pastas without having to worry about significant reduction in water temperature and thus longer cooking times. The Plus Pasta Cookers come in single or double tank models and are perfect for fast and efficient cooking of fresh or frozen pastas, rice, vegetables, potatoes, meats, and seafood. Solid pans can be used in the cooking tank to warm sauces, soups, and other liquids.

Each cooking tank is stamped, not welded, from one piece of fine glazed AISI 316 stainless steel. This seamless construction makes our tanks highly resistant to the corrosive effects of salt water. The tank also has a thick blanket of ceramic insulation that wraps each tank. This not only conserves energy, but prevents the exposed surfaces from becoming exceedingly hot to the touch.

Desco USA’s highly efficient burners are designed to concentrate a greater amount of heat at the rear of the tank. This produces a convective flow of water that eliminates the need for manual tossing or stirring of the pasta. It also automatically removes undesirable starches from the water by means of a starch-skimming drain located at the front of each tank.

In accordance to Desco USA standards, our Plus models like all our other equipment, were designed to be simple to operate, durable, and cost effective. This is why all of our units are built without costly electronic components that tend to perform poorly when placed in a hot and humid kitchen environment.

• Electric Table Top Pasta Cookers & Rethermalizers Model CPE/1 & CPE-B6

  

  The B3 and B6 are the two table top pasta cooker models that Desco USA offers to it’s customers. Use these units for small scale production or for rethermalization of precooked pasta—perfect for a cafeteria setting!

  The B6 table top pasta cooker offers almost all of the same features as Desco USA’s full size cookers. Like the full size units (CPG and CPG Plus lines), the B6 incorporates a very effective starch skimming system that keeps the cooking water starch-free, thereby eliminating the need to periodically change the cooking water and ensuring a more consistent end product.

  The B3 table top pasta cooker is a smaller, fully manual unit that requires no water or drain connections. The unit must be filled and drained manually.

  These table top cookers are engineered in accordance to Desco USA’s standards of excellence. Their simple, yet effective design make these units perfect for the user that does not have the need or the space for a full size pasta cooker.
