Kuvings new commercial juicers
Kuvings presents a new innovation. Following the successful popularity of commercial juicers, Kuvings has developed a new commercial vacuum blender, with the world’s first automatic opening and closing function.
The phrase “world’s first” means a lot to Kuvings and it’s one that has been continuously challenged, from “the world’s first Whole Slow Juicer” to “the world’s first automatic opening/closing function”.
Kuvings’ new auto vacuum blender will be unveiled at the IFA exhibition in Germany this September, and its outstanding performance is expected to attract the attention of buyers from around the world.
The world’s first commercial blender with automatic opening and closing function
As the name suggests, Kuvings’ Chef CB1000 is optimised for use in commercial environments such as cafes, hotels and juice bars. This is the world’s first commercial blender to apply the automatic opening and closing function of the soundproof cover. With one touch of a button, you can conveniently enjoy the entire process of making beverages, with vacuum and ultra-high-speed blending and automatic opening and closing of its soundproof cover. This new smart feature maximises on convenience and saves time too. Providing fresh beverages through a vacuum
Unlike general blenders, vacuum alternatives keep juices and smoothies fresh for a long time. Vacuum blending also prevents oxidation, browning and layer separation and minimises the loss of nutrients, so users can enjoy premium juices and smoothies.
Drinks made by vacuum blending also show a big difference in nutritional content. The method provides a more nutritious beverage because the vacuum minimises the oxidation and nutrient destruction that occurs when the ingredients collide with the blade.
CB1000: recognised worldwide
Chef CB1000’s technology, performance and convenience have already been recognised worldwide. In February this year, Kuvings was named at the Kitchen Innovation Awards held in Germany, selected as “Best of the Best” in the catering field and receiving the Golden Award.
In addition at the 2022 Korea New Lifestyle Awards, it received the grand prize under the customer value category, strengthening its global position as a premium home appliance brand.
The best recipe programme
In the world of commercial cafes, recipes that can be made with a blender are of utmost importance. Various functions have been applied to the Chef CB1000 to increase the efficiency of its product use. A total 35 recipe programmes optimised for the cafe menu are built-in, and five preset buttons make it easy for anyone to operate.
Faster with quick start button applied to the main body provides a hands-free function that allows users to perform other tasks until blending is complete. The frequently-used recipe menu button can be directly assigned to the quick start button, so you can make drinks quickly through the desired settings.
Asymmetric container for uniform blending
Kuvings special skill is in making a soft drink with a soft texture. It is designed to unbalance the angle of the bottom of the blender’s container, so that the particles are smooth and uniformly-blended.
Excellent durability motor and blade
It is no exaggeration to say that the anatomy of a blender is a motor and a blade. The gadget is equipped with a motor that can be used stably for a long time so that it can be freely implemented in a commercial environment, and the optimal blade structure designed for uniform blending provides a soft texture.
Design with safety in mind
Most of Kuvings‘ products are designed safely. Blending is possible only when the machine’s container is properly fastened to the main body. This safety design is applied not only to blenders, but to all Kuvings juicers.
