Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Garden Pantry, a bustling vegetarian cafe in Norwich, needed to speed up their lunch service. Their existing slicing disc was old and producing inconsistent results for their signature 'Rainbow Salad Bowl', which was causing a bottleneck during peak hours.
"We swapped to the new Santos 6mm disc and the difference was immediate. The slices are perfectly even, which makes the salads look so much more professional, and it just glides through the veg. It’s saved us so much time."
Liam O'Connell – Kitchen Manager
The simple switch to a new, sharp disc helped them increase their salad output by over 30% during the busy 12-2 pm lunch rush.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always make sure the food processor is switched off and unplugged before handling blades.
- Simply lift the machine's cover and ejector plate, then place the disc directly onto the drive shaft.
- Ensure the disc sits flat and securely before replacing the cover.
- Give it a quick pulse before loading vegetables to confirm it's seated correctly.
Keeping It Going
- For the best hygiene and easiest clean-up, wash the disc immediately after use.
- Use a soft brush and warm, soapy water to clean around the blade, taking care of your fingers.
- Avoid using harsh abrasive pads as they can dull the blade's cutting edge.
- Store it flat in a safe, dry place to prevent any nicks or damage to the blade.
