Combination Cooker-Coolers
Lyco's combination cooker-coolers are designed to save space and improve efficiency. The close-coupled design eliminates the need for intermediate conveyors, simplifying maintenance and cleanup. The patented Hydro-Flow® agitation system ensures uniform processing by keeping products suspended and moving, reducing cooling times by 40% and enhancing product quality.

Technical Specifications
The cooker-coolers feature cylinders with diameters of 60 or 72 inches and lengths ranging from 8 to 28 feet for cooking, and 4 to 24 feet for cooling. The system uses direct or indirect steam for heating and cold or chilled water for cooling, achieving final product temperatures of 40°F. A single Clean-In-Place system cleans both zones.

Applications
These machines are suitable for processing pasta, dry beans, proteins, vegetables, rice, potatoes, and fragile products.

Benefits
Key benefits include uniform process results, lower initial costs, gentle agitation, space savings, zero pasta sticking losses, energy efficiency, a 5-15% yield increase, and reduced maintenance.

Capacity
The capacity of the cooker-coolers varies based on size, with options ranging from 4,000 to 24,500 pounds per hour.

Conclusion
Lyco Manufacturing's combination cooker-coolers offer innovative solutions for efficient food processing, backed by decades of industry expertise.
