Cooking Controllers

Watlow's MINICHEF® 2000 was the industries first on-off or PID configurable temperature/time and machine function controller. The MINICHEF 2000 is used in commercial griddle applications because they contain multiple controllers in one pre-programmed cooking computer. It controls several temperatures, times and machine functions at once all in a compact design.
