Steam Tables and Food Wells

Steam tables are an ideal solution to high-volume food service requirements. You can keep various foods warm using these appliances that are powered either by gas or electricity. Steam tables usually come with two or more full-size pans, although you can use several smaller pans if you intend to serve a multitude of dishes. Food wells serve a similar purpose - they can fit right into your buffet table and come in several full-size and half-size configurations. Food wells have the added ability to serve cold foods such as salads and desserts as well.

Electric Steam Tables: Electric steam tables make use of electricity to keep your food warm and are available in configurations of 110, 208, and 240 volts to make the best use of your power source. These take longer to heat up but are energy efficient and you can customize the holding temperature to best suit the food being served.
Gas Steam Tables: Gas steam tables use liquid propane or natural gas as their fuel source. These heat up faster than electric models and feature a simpler design. One downside to gas steam tables is that they warm up the surrounding environment as well.
Drop-in Hot Food Well Units: Designed to keep your hot food at an optimum temperature, these units are powered by electricity and are insulated to prevent heat loss through conduction.
Drop-in Refrigerated Food Well Units: Refrigerated food wells are designed to keep cold foods such as salads, desserts, and cold sandwiches cold and their insulated bodies prevent the food from getting warm.
Hot/Cold Drop-in Food Well Units: Dual temperature food wells are designed to save space and come with a switch that can change the appliance from a warming unit to a refrigerated unit. You can use the same food well to serve both hot and cold courses after changing the pans and switching the appliance to refrigeration mode.
