Chef Master 5 Gal Commercial Salad Spinner

A salad dryer, often referred to as a salad spinner, is designed to remove any excess water left on salad greens after washing. The purpose is to prevent lettuce from becoming soggy, which can lead to discoloration and spoilage. However, a salad dryer does not remove all moisture. The centrifugal force of the spinning causes larger drops of water to be flung to the interior of the dryer, where the water drains off. Yet, due to the nature of salad greens, smaller quantities of moisture are retained on the surfaces of the plants. This retained moisture is beneficial, as it prevents the lettuce leaves from drying out.

Hand washing of salad greens, even with vigorous shaking and draining, does not effectively remove some of the larger quantities of water caught in the curls and folds of the leaves. Additionally, shaking the lettuce can accidentally damage the leaves, resulting in a less usable product. A salad dryer quickly, efficiently, and safely removes the unwanted water while retaining the necessary moisture.

The Chef Master 90005 salad dryer is designed with a built-in braking system. Once you stop winding the gears, the brake will kick in and slow the gears to a stop. All the working parts in this salad spinner are made from durable materials, including an ergonomically shaped handle for easy turning.

Constructed with heavy-duty, food-safe materials, the Chef Master Salad Spinner meets ETL and FDA standards. The lid attaches with two strong clip latches, ensuring a secure and reliable design.

This salad spinner has a very large capacity, capable of accommodating 5-6 heads of lettuce at a time. It can be loaded with chopped lettuce or separated greens. A small valve at the bottom of the spinner can be opened to allow the water to drain, ensuring efficient and convenient use.

In addition to the 90005 model, Chef Master offers other salad spinner options, including the 90008 and 90012 models. These products vary in capacity, ranging from 2.5 gallons to 5 gallons, and feature similar durable construction and built-in braking systems.
