How to choose the right Chefs Blow Torches
- Decide how often the torch will be used and choose a build quality that matches the demands of your restaurant, bakery or catering business.
- Check flame adjustability and output so you can handle both delicate sugar work and faster searing or browning tasks.
- Consider torch size and weight for comfortable use during long prep sessions or service periods.
- Match the torch to suitable gas canisters or lighter fuel that are easy to source and store in your kitchen.
- Think about where it will be used, from compact back-of-house prep areas to front-of-house finishing or live cooking stations.
- Look for safety features such as child locks, stable bases and reliable ignition to reduce risk in busy environments.
Care and maintenance
- Refill with the recommended butane or gas mixture and follow manufacturer instructions to avoid leaks or ignition issues.
- Regularly check the nozzle, ignition and safety lock for wear or damage and replace units that show signs of failure.
- Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage finishes or controls.
- Store torches upright on a stable surface and keep gas canisters in a cool, well-ventilated area away from open flames.
- Allow the torch to cool fully before storing and never cover or box it while still warm.
- Schedule periodic safety checks so staff remain confident using the equipment during busy service.
