Thanks to AirFry mode, combined with the optimised AirFlowPro air circulation system, the new mini family delivers 25% more throughput than the previous model, without any increase in energy consumption. Another advantage: with its award-winning, sleek design and seamless stackability, the unit is a true eye-catcher in front-cooking areas. The mini pro is ideal for the food-to-go business and adapts perfectly to increasingly smaller kitchen spaces.

King of Compact: Space-Saving and Elegant Design – Only 49.8 cm or 19.6″ Wide
The mini pro family is available as 6.06 – 2/3 GN size, 6.10, and 10.10. The oven offers the ultimate product output in the smallest space, measuring just 49.8 cm wide. In addition, seamless stacking with EasyStack saves up to 17% space and enables effortless scalability. The 2in1 Control system allows two cooking chambers to be operated via a single interface – making it more convenient and ergonomic to use. Having been awarded the Good Design Award 2025, the oven also impresses with its elegant and stylish front-of-house design.
AI-Driven Optical Cooking: Fully automatic cooking with ConvoSense
The mini pro is the first compact combi oven with integrated AI-driven Optical Cooking using innovative ConvoSense technology. It automatically detects food and starts the corresponding cooking profile – without manual input. This saves up to 60 minutes of daily working time, reduces energy consumption by 28%, and cuts food waste by 17%, leading to cost savings and optimised profits – particularly beneficial for chain operations. The cloud-based KitchenConnect© platform also enables centralised management of production data and easy menu transfers. This allows for efficient, data-driven production and guarantees the highest food safety standards.
Innovative Technology for a Clean and Sustainable Kitchen
The mini pro also sets new standards in cleaning. The Solid-to-Liquid Cleaning System – ConvoClean S2L revolutionises cleaning in the compact combi oven class. Contactless cartridges (Detergent and Rinse) are integrated directly into the oven, saving valuable space while maximising convenience and safety. The ConvoClean S2L cartridges automatically dispense the exact amount of cleaning agents needed, ensuring a more sustainable operation. They are very powerful and deliver 30 cleaning cycles. Additionally, the cleaning agents are phosphate-free and biodegradable, while the cartridges are 100% recyclable. The optimised packaging and improved logistics reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 88%.
The Integrated Water Quality Manager continuously monitors, regulates, and optimises cleaning and descaling programs, automatically adjusting the dosage of detergent and rinse aid.
More Speed and Increased Production – Without Higher Energy Consumption
Thanks to MaxiCavity, the cooking chamber volume has been optimised compared to overall unit dimensions. An additional shelf with EasyRack increases throughput by 25%. The innovative rack system also simplifies loading and, as the first compact combi oven to allow the use of both GN and US trays, it adapts easily to different production workflows.
The Climate Management System has been further optimised for more power and less water and energy consumption. AirFlowPro increases air circulation by 80% with double the speed, thanks to an innovative fan design that ensures efficient performance without additional energy consumption.
AirFry mode delivers powerful hot air circulation with rapid dehumidification.
Efficiency, Durability, and Environmental Protection Combined
The mini pro offers outstanding performance with minimal energy and water consumption. The Intelligent Steam Management System uses advanced sensors to precisely regulate moisture levels as needed – saving 85% water in cooking and 15% energy. Additionally, the triple-glazed door keeps heat inside the unit, minimising energy loss.
What’s more, the mini pro is built for longevity. Its robust construction reduces the need for repairs or appliance replacements, ensuring a longer product lifecycle.
Maximum Flexibility for Any Catering Concept
Whether in coffee shops, bakeries, quick-service restaurants, or chain operations – the mini pro combines the key success factors of the modern food industry. It integrates user-friendliness with the intelligence of Optical Cooking, delivering maximum performance with minimal energy and water consumption – all within the smallest footprint.
