They are perfect for different large-batch recipes in multiple cooking modes, from stews to stir-fries. Some standard features are the high-chromium stainless steel AISI 304 and AISI 316 construction and Firex Touch Control connected to the open kitchen cloud platform. Available in gas, electric, and pressurized versions, Firex bratt pans are released in 4 series names: Cucimix, Figaro, Betterpan, and Easybratt.

• Cucimix: Firex designed Cucimix to incorporate multiple cooking processes, handling each independently. The tilting large bowl has a 2 or 3-arm mixer rotating in both directions and at adjustable speeds. The pressure lid in these models reduces cook times and minimizes water loss, with 70% less energy and over 30% more yield than traditional cooking. Capacities range from 8 to 82 gallons (30 to 310 liters). The temperature regulation probe and touch control panel help adjust precise cooking temperatures between 68 and 428°F (20-220°C).

• Figaro: Figaro is the fastest and most versatile Firex equipment. It combines the features of a braising pan, kettle, fryer, and stove, cooking 4 times faster than a traditional braising pan. The Figaro models come in 26 and 40 gallons (100-150 liters).
