- Cons: Its sturdy build means it’s quite heavy, especially when fully loaded.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Harbour View Bistro in Tenby, Pembrokeshire, was struggling with their old baking trays. They were constantly warping in their new combi oven and the head chef was fed up with food sticking during their busy seafood service.
"The Schneider trays are just fantastic. They feel indestructible, nothing sticks to them, and the deep sides are brilliant for our fish pies. The washing up time for trays has genuinely been cut in half, which the KPs are thrilled about."
Gareth Morgan – Head Chef
The bistro saw a noticeable improvement in kitchen efficiency, saving an estimated 15-20 minutes of cleaning labour per shift and eliminating food waste from sticking.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Give the tray a good wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
- To protect the enamel surface, it's best to use silicone, plastic, or wooden utensils.
- Always check it fits securely on your oven or rack shelving before loading with food.
Keeping It Going
- Hand washing is highly recommended to preserve the life of the enamel coating.
- For stubborn, baked-on food, soak the tray in warm, soapy water rather than using harsh scourers.
- Avoid using abrasive metal scouring pads or harsh chemical cleaners.
- When storing, stack them carefully, perhaps with tray liners in between, to prevent chipping the enamel edges.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this baking tray dishwasher safe?
A: To ensure the longest possible life for the enamel coating, we strongly recommend hand washing with a soft sponge and warm, soapy water.
Q: Can I use metal utensils on it?
A: It's best to avoid metal utensils as they can scratch or chip the enamel surface over time. We suggest using silicone, wood, or heat-resistant plastic tools.
Q: Will it warp in a very hot oven?
A: The Schneider DW289 is made from heavy-duty steel specifically to resist warping and buckling, even at the high temperatures found in commercial ovens.
Q: What does 'combi steamer optimised' mean?
A: It means the tray is designed to perform perfectly in an environment with both dry heat (convection) and moisture (steam), and its double-sided enamel protects it from rust.
Q: Is the enamel coating considered non-stick?
A: Yes, the smooth, glass-like enamel surface provides excellent food release properties, which makes cooking and cleaning much easier.
Q: What is GN 1/1 sizing?
A: 'GN' stands for Gastronorm, a European standard for kitchenware sizes. GN 1/1 is a full-size tray (530 x 325mm) that fits standard commercial ovens, trolleys, and bains-marie.
Q: Why is this tray heavier than my old aluminium ones?
A: The weight comes from its robust enamelled steel construction. This extra heft is what makes it so durable and resistant to warping.
Q: What is the main benefit of the 90° rim?
A: The sharp, 90-degree rim and edges make the tray easier and safer to grip, especially with oven gloves, and they are excellent for containing liquids and preventing spills.
The Schneider Standard: Reliability Baked In
When you choose a Schneider product, you're investing in more than just a piece of metal; you're buying into a legacy of German engineering and uncompromising quality. The Schneider DW289 baking tray is the perfect example of this philosophy. It's not designed to be the cheapest, but to be the most reliable. This focus on long-term value translates directly to your bottom line. A tray that doesn't warp ensures even cooking and predictable results. A surface that doesn't stick reduces food waste and cuts down on precious staff cleaning time. Its sheer durability means you won't be buying replacements every year, saving you money and hassle. In a fast-paced professional kitchen, reliability isn't a luxury—it's everything. This tray provides the peace of mind that comes from knowing your essential tools will perform flawlessly, service after service.
Explore more from SchneiderWhy a Double-Sided Enamel Coating Matters
Ever wondered why some trays rust from the bottom or lose their coating? It's often because they're only protected on the inside. The Schneider DW289 features a double-sided enamel coating, which is a game-changer, especially for combi steamers where moisture is everywhere. Enamel is essentially powdered glass that's fused to the steel core at incredibly high temperatures.
By coating both sides, the tray is completely sealed. The inside gives you a tough, non-stick cooking surface, while the outside coating protects the steel from steam, condensation, and rust. Think of it like a waterproof jacket for your tray – it’s protected from the elements on all sides, not just the bit you can see. This means a much longer life and more consistent performance, protecting your investment for years to come.
