Steaming Tips
• Pre-cooked pasta is easily reconstituted, and gives
you a hot product without the wetness of the nor-
mal “dip” method.
• Experiment with your products and different steam-
ing times–a little more or less steam could change
the appearance/flavor.
• If you serve melted cheese on sandwiches, steam
is the perfect way to melt cheese.
• A steamed bun (which takes about 10-15 seconds)
says “Hot Sandwich” to your customer.
• Vegetables, rice and bread products can be recon-
stituted by steaming before serving which reduces
waste.
• Dinner rolls, muffins, even tortillas can be heated
completely and held without drying out the product.
• Use a low plate or pan when steaming to allow full
steam penetration and shorter cooking times.
• Use the “1 in 20” rule: Push the operate switch for
one second every twenty seconds. This will ensure
that the product gets fully heated without using
excess water or energy.
• Condensation inside the steamer is normal, but
excess moisture indicates too much water is being
used. Use the “1 in 20” rule above to correct this
problem. Also, examine the steam generator, it may
require cleaning.
• Heat meat and bread products apart from each
other, then combine in a sandwich. This will keep
the meat juices from soaking the bread.

• Finish off a special meal with a steamed hand
towel–hot without excess moisture.
Hi-Limit Reset Button
A hi-limit thermostat will turn off electrical power to the
heater if the unit overheats. To reset this thermostat,
allow sufficient time (about 45 minutes) for the unit to
cool down, remove the cap and then fully depress the
reset button located on the rear of the unit (Figure 7).
If the unit requires continuous resetting, contact your
Roundup authorized service agency.
