Why Do You Need a Potato Blanching Machine?

Blanching is a heat-treatment process that involves briefly boiling or steaming the potatoes before further processing. It’s an essential step for:

  • Inactivating enzymes that cause discoloration
  • Improving texture for frying or freezing
  • Removing excess starch
  • Enhancing shelf life and quality
  • Reducing oil absorption during deep-frying

Trying to skip blanching or doing it manually at scale? That’s a one-way ticket to inconsistent quality, slower production, and lost profits.

How the Blanching Process Works

The blanched potatoes are automatically discharged and transferred to the next machine — usually a dewatering or cooling conveyor.

Pre-cleaned and cut potatoes enter the blanching tank via a conveyor.

They’re submerged in hot water or exposed to steam at set temperatures.

The timer ensures potatoes are heat-treated for 2–5 minutes, depending on cut size and product type.

FAQs About Potato Blanching Machines

What’s the ideal blanching temperature for potatoes?

For French fries, blanching in hot water at 80–85°C for 3–5 minutes is optimal. Steam blanching is also an option and slightly faster.

Can I use this blancher for other vegetables?

Yes! The blanching machine can process:

  • Carrots
  • Green beans
  • Broccoli
  • Onions
  • Sweet potatoes

Just adjust temperature and timing accordingly.

Is steam blanching better than water blanching?

Steam blanching uses less water and may preserve more nutrients, but water blanching is often more effective for starch removal from potatoes.

How do I clean the machine?

Our blanchers have:

  • Drainage systems
  • Removable covers and filters
  • Easy-access points for daily cleaning and maintenance

A CIP (clean-in-place) system can be added upon request.

What’s the lifespan of this machine?

With proper maintenance, the machine can last 10–15 years or more. All components are industry-grade and wear-resistant.
