No. VP Chef XL is equipped with an integrated extractor hood with activated carbon filter and is designed to operate without a traditional flue*.

An important feature especially for those businesses that want to include pizza and professional gastronomy but do not have a traditional extraction system.

This makes VP Chef XL particularly interesting for restaurants, pizzerias, bars, pubs, delicatessens, hotels, food trucks, kiosks and many other catering businesses.

*The possibility of installation must be verified in relation to the characteristics of the premises and applicable regulations.

Because VP Chef XL is not just a pizza oven.

Its two chambers have been designed to perform different functions: the upper chamber is mainly dedicated to pizza, while the lower, higher chamber allows you to prepare numerous gastronomic products.

With a single machine you can therefore manage pizza, bread, chicken, roasts, lasagna, vegetables, savory pies, desserts and many other preparations.

A solution designed to expand the menu without multiplying the equipment present in the kitchen.

Yes. And it is one of the main strengths of VP Chef XL.

The oven has two independent cooking chambers, which allow you to organize different processes at the same time.

While you cook pizzas in the upper chamber, the lower one can be used for bread, chicken, roasts, lasagna or other gastronomic preparations.

This way you can diversify your offering and manage multiple orders simultaneously with a single machine.

In the standard configuration, VP Chef XL allows you to cook up to 2 pizzas at the same time in the upper chamber.

The pizza chamber measures 66 × 42 × 9 cm and is designed to offer space, temperature and cooking uniformity suitable for professional use.

The big difference of VP Chef XL, however, is the possibility of further increasing production capacity through an optional configuration.

Yes.

VP Chef XL can be configured with an intermediate support and an additional refractory stone, which allow the lower chamber to be divided into two cooking levels.

This way, the oven can be adapted to the needs of businesses with higher work volumes, making even better use of the space available inside the machine.

A particularly interesting solution during peak periods or for those who want to increase production without adding a second oven.

Yes.

Using the optional configuration, the large lower chamber can be divided to create an additional cooking level.

VP Chef XL thus goes from two to three levels dedicated to production, significantly increasing the versatility of the machine.

You can then choose whether to use the lower chamber to its full height for larger food preparations or configure it to increase production capacity.

The lower chamber measures 66 × 42 × 23 cm and was designed specifically to offer greater freedom than the classic chamber of a pizza oven.

You can use it to prepare bread, chicken, roasts, lasagna, savory pies, sponge cakes, vegetables, baked goods and many other culinary preparations.

The 23 cm height allows you to work with foods and containers that require more vertical space.

VP Chef XL reaches temperatures up to 520°C and is designed to ensure extremely rapid cooking.

Under suitable conditions and configurations, a pizza can be ready in about 1 minute, while times and temperatures can be adjusted depending on the dough, the product used and the desired result.

The electronic control allows you to precisely manage cooking and maintain consistent results during service.

Yes.

The maximum declared temperature is 520°C / 968°F.

The high temperature, together with the professional refractory stone and the independent management of the top and bottom, allows for rapid and uniform cooking.

The system is designed to recreate the cooking characteristics typical of a wood-fired oven using a professional electric machine.

Yes.

VP Chef XL allows for independent adjustment of the top and bottom, offering greater control over how the heat reaches the product.

This option allows you to adapt cooking to the characteristics of the dough and different preparations, by adjusting the balance between upper and lower heat.

This is a particularly useful feature when working with different products throughout the day.

VP Chef XL has been designed to make the operator's work easier and more controllable.

The electronic system with microprocessor precisely manages temperature and cooking times, helping to make the result more consistent and repeatable.

This allows for more efficient service organization and reduces dependence on the completely manual management typical of traditional cooking systems.

Despite its high production capacity, VP Chef XL is only 91 cm wide.

The dimensions are:

Width: 91 cm

Depth: 54 7 cm

Height: 64 cm

Weight: 85 kg

In less than a meter of width you can therefore concentrate a professional workstation capable of handling both pizza and delicatessen.

VP Chef XL uses a 380 V N T – 50/60 Hz power supply.

The maximum indicated absorption is 4.5 kW.

It is therefore professional equipment designed for catering activities and the premises' electrical system must be checked before installation to ensure its compatibility.

VP Chef XL is designed to offer high performance while limiting energy losses.

High insulation and electronic control help to efficiently manage the energy required during operation.

The maximum declared power consumption is 4.5 kW, while the figure indicated for standby operation is 2.5 kW.

Actual consumption naturally depends on the temperatures set, the workload and how the oven is used.

Yes.

The professional refractory stone accumulates heat and transfers it evenly to the pizza base.

Combined with high temperatures and the regulation of the top and bottom, it helps to obtain a well-cooked base and balanced cooking even during intense service.

The system is designed to bring the result closer to the characteristics of traditional wood-fired oven cooking.

Yes.

VP Chef XL can be used with fresh, pre-cooked and frozen pizza.

The ability to manage temperature, times and heat distribution allows the oven to be adapted to different types of products and service models.

This makes it suitable for both a pizzeria and other businesses that want to add pizza to their offerings without completely overhauling their kitchen layout.

No.

The machine is made of professional stainless steel and is designed to make normal cleaning and daily maintenance operations simple.

Proper cleaning of the chambers, stones, and surfaces helps maintain the oven's efficiency and the quality of its preparations over time.

VP Chef XL is designed especially for businesses that require high versatility and greater production capacity, but want to concentrate everything in a single machine.

It is particularly suitable for pizzerias, restaurants, delicatessens, hotels, pubs, bars, food trucks, kiosks and self-service outlets.

It is also an interesting solution for those who want to expand their menu by including pizza and delicatessen without installing separate equipment.

Yes.
