The New Menumaster MXP: 15 times faster than conventional ovens for improved sales and profit.ACP, Inc. (Accelerated Cooking Products), the only American manufacturer of commercial microwave ovens, represents
tradition and innovation with its two well-known brands, Amana® Commercial and Menumaster® Commercial. Amana was the very first company to manufacture and sell commercialand residential microwave ovens. Holding over 96 patents, there is no one in the industry who holds more. This vast experience is reflected today in all of ACP’s products.

The latest Menumaster MXP Oven takes high-speed cooking to new levels of efficiency by combining three energy sources: microwave, forced convection and infra-red radiant. The microwave energy is from two magnetrons providing 2200 W of quick, uniform cooking. The forced convection (2000 W) covers temperatures from 95°-270° C (200°-520° F) cooking a wide variety of items with better browning and caramelization and the infra-red radiant heat (3000 W) crisps and toasts foods to perfection. The flexible cooking platform means that it is possible to use any combination of microwave, convection or infra-red radiant heat so that each dish is cooked perfectly and quickly.

With the possibility of 360 programmable items it is easy to expand and vary menu offerings, increasing sales. Updating menus for multiple locations is a breeze with the new USB port. Safety and ease of use are a priority with MXP. The unique, ergonomically friendly door opens below the rack, providing full access to the cavity and making it easier and safer to load. The oven accepts metal cookware so there is no added expense for dedicated cookware. The two cleanable air filters are easily removed and dishwasher-safe. An automatic “clean filter” reminder keeps maintenance effortless.

Great MXP design features make the oven easy to add to any foodservice operation. Ventless installation means no costly hood or increased HVAC and the reduced footprint and stackability means that there is always a place in your kitchen for an MXP. The compact, elegant exterior belies a capacious interior, which accepts a 14″ pizza.

HEALTHY, DELICIOUS FOOD WHILE SAVING ENERGY

Reduced cook times ensure healthy cooking, using less oil or fat with better results. The microwave function uses the moisture already contained in fresh vegetables to steam them so they remain crisp and appetizing. Foods retain nutrients, texture and color, enabling you to serve your customers more healthful, more delicious food. Faster cook times increase through put and profitability. The oven uses energy only while cooking, eliminating the need for pre-cooking and holding, reducing energy costs and increasing savings.

A series of accessories such as a pizza stone, non-stick baskets, a panini grill and oven paddle guarantee optimal results for every item on your menu and the non-stick liners assure easy clean-up.

The MXP is the perfect addition to cafés, restaurants, bars and grills, grocery stores, hotels, QSR’s, hospitals, schools and institutions. ACP, with both the Amana Commercial and Menumaster brands, serves customers such as Dairy Queen, Tropical Smoothie, Subway, Whole Foods and Courtyard by Marriott, Yale University and IMAX theatres. With the ACP commitment to quality, durability and innovation, there is an Amana commercial or Menumaster oven to fit every foodservice need.
