Grow it, Pick it, Sous Vide and Serve!

Here at our premises, we have a spectacular garden behind our working factory. The Clifton garden is home to many weird and wonderful creatures and includes a ‘bug hotel’, designed as a bespoke area for insects to make their home and breed.

Bee hives are placed near the back of the garden; these bees are responsible for producing honey which we use in our development kitchen when we have guests here to cook sous vide.

We grow an extensive range of fruits and vegetables, from green beans, onions, rhubarb and peas, to orchards of apples, pears and plums. The garden also includes many vibrant flowers, two ponds full of fish and currently home to a number of frogs.

The garden we have is very sustainable and we are conscious of the natural environment, ensuring wildlife can come and go and the plant variation is extensive.

If you would like to come down and have a play in our demo kitchen in the months ahead, we can firstly show you how the water baths are manufactured; perhaps pick some fresh vegetables and herbs from our garden and then cook sous vide to finish the day off nicely. Call us on 01934 626691 to organise.

Seeing Double with the Clifton Duobaths™

The Clifton Duobath™ is one of our most popular product ranges. It allows the chef to have two chambers working at once, and at different temperatures and times. Each chamber has its own control panel and drain tap and comes in various size and style configurations.  It’s great for chefs who require versatility when cooking sous vide.

In addition we offer the Duobath™ as a compact version, where the controls are on the narrow end of the unit, giving chefs more space if they have a limited amount of room in the kitchen. The drain taps are placed on the front panel making it easy to clean and remove the water efficiently and quickly.

Both the Duobath™  and the Compact Duobath™ have a run-dry protection function, low water level warning and current time and temperature settings will be retained in memory even after ‘power off’. The side lifting handles are offset to ensure that the bath is balanced when carried around the kitchen.

Leading chefs world wide are choosing Clifton for sous vide cooking, as the baths are an indispensable piece of equipment in a busy working kitchen.
