Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The team at 'The Salad Patch', a busy lunch spot in Exeter, were spending too much time switching between different processor blades and washing up multiple parts during their morning rush. They needed a way to streamline their prep for their popular range of fresh salads and sandwiches.
"The reversible disc has genuinely simplified our morning routine. We can switch from grating carrots for slaw to shredding cheese for our toasties just by flipping the disc. It's faster, and there's less to clean. A simple, effective upgrade for our kitchen."
Samuel Jones – Head Chef
The result? The Salad Patch has reduced its daily vegetable and cheese preparation time by over 15%, allowing staff to focus on serving customers more quickly during the peak lunch period.

Installation & Maintenance
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always ensure the food processor is switched off and unplugged before handling blades.
- Choose which side you need (2mm grate or 4mm shred) and place it face-up on the drive shaft.
- Lower the disc carefully, ensuring it sits securely in the bowl.
- Fasten the processor lid and safety locks before plugging in and operating.
Keeping It Going
- Clean the disc immediately after use to prevent food from hardening on the blades.
- Wash carefully in warm, soapy water. Always handle by the polycarbonate body, not the sharp blades.
- The disc is dishwasher safe, but handwashing is often gentler and can help maintain blade sharpness over time.
- Store it flat in a safe, designated place to prevent damage and avoid accidents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this disc compatible with every Waring food processor?
A: No, this disc is specifically designed for Waring models WFP14SK and WFP14SCK. It's crucial to check your machine's rating plate for the model number before purchasing.
Q: What is the real-world difference between the 2mm and 4mm sides?
A: The 2mm side creates a very fine, delicate grate suitable for things like coleslaw or carrot cake. The 4mm side produces a thicker, more substantial shred, which is ideal for cheese on a pizza or potatoes for hash browns.
Q: Is this Waring reversible grating shredding disc dishwasher safe?
A: Yes, it is constructed from materials suitable for commercial dishwashers. However, for maximum blade longevity, occasional handwashing is recommended.
Q: What are the disc's blades made of?
A: The cutting surfaces are made from high-quality, sharp stainless steel for durability and performance, while the main body is tough polycarbonate.
Q: Can I use this disc to slice cucumbers or onions?
A: No, this is a grating and shredding disc. For slicing, you would need to purchase a specific Waring slicing disc for your food processor.
Q: What does 'BPA-Free' mean?
A: It means the polycarbonate plastic used in the disc is made without the chemical Bisphenol-A, ensuring it meets high food safety standards for commercial kitchens.
Q: How difficult is it to flip the disc over during use?
A: It's very simple. After ensuring the machine is off, you just lift the disc out, turn it over to the other side, and place it back onto the drive shaft.
Q: Is this part suitable for a home kitchen food processor?
A: This is a commercial-grade accessory designed for heavy-duty Waring models. It is not intended for and is unlikely to fit standard domestic food processors.
