What’s the difference between a food warmer and a heat lamp?
A food warmer typically uses electric heating to keep food pans hot from underneath, while a heat lamp radiates heat from above to maintain warmth on plated food or display items. Both serve different use cases—warmers are better for longer hold, while lamps are great for immediate service areas.
How many servings can a 64-cup rice cooker hold?
Our 64-cup rice cookers can hold up to 130–150 servings, depending on portion size, making them perfect for busy kitchens, cafeterias, and event caterers.
Can I use a soup kettle for sauces or gravy?
Absolutely. Soup kettles are versatile and can hold soups, gravies, stews, and hot sauces evenly without scorching.
Do you provide replacement bulbs for heat lamps?
Yes, we stock compatible replacement bulbs so you can keep your heat lamps functioning without interruption.
What size of food warmer should I get for a small restaurant?
For smaller operations, a standard electric food warmer or bain marie is often sufficient. If you're holding multiple items, consider the 46" Bain Marie from Omcan for greater capacity.
At A1 Cash and Carry, we understand the importance of temperature control in food safety and service. Whether you’re running a fast-paced commercial kitchen or organizing a large-scale catering event, our commercial food warmers and holders ensure you serve hot food—just as it’s meant to be enjoyed.
