Somerset SEP-790 1,000+ Pcs/Hr Automated Tortilla Press, 14 In. Capacity, Dual Heated Platens, Programmable Timer

The Somerset SEP-790 is an automated tabletop tortilla press with dual heated platens that presses flour and corn tortillas, burrito wraps, pita, roti, chapati, and flatbreads up to 14 in. in diameter. It is built for Mexican restaurants, taquerias, tortillerias, institutions, pizzerias, and ethnic and gluten-free food producers who need more than 1,000 even, consistent pieces an hour off one machine. You feed dough balls in, the heated platens press each to the thickness you set with a turn of the handle, and the pressed tortilla discharges out the front quickly and safely. It is a tabletop production press for a busy kitchen or commissary, not a full tortilla oven line. It runs on 208 V or 240 V, 50/60 Hz, with a NEMA 6-20P plug.

Up To 14 In. Tortillas At Over 1,000 An Hour

A 14 in. press covers everything from street taco rounds to the large flour tortillas you need for a mission-style burrito or a wrap. At over 1,000 pieces an hour, one cook keeps a full lunch line supplied with fresh tortillas instead of opening packaged ones, and every piece comes out the same diameter so your fillings and portions stay consistent.

Dual Heated Platens With Separate Controls

Both platens heat, each with its own adjustable control from 0 to 400°F. Heat relaxes the dough so it spreads to full size and holds it instead of shrinking back, and setting top and bottom separately lets you tune the press for a high-fat flour dough versus masa or a gluten-free recipe. The non-stick work surfaces release each piece without dusting.

Programmable Press Timer, Counter And ECO Mode

A programmable press timer sets exactly how long each piece is held, so thickness and texture repeat batch after batch. The dough piece counter tracks how many you have made for prep and inventory, and programmable ECO mode lowers energy use when the press is sitting between rushes.

Thickness Set With The Turn Of A Handle

Product thickness adjusts with a single handle, so switching from a thin taco round to a thicker gordita-style piece or a soft pita takes seconds. The extra height between the plates makes loading easy, and the all electric, heavy duty drive is maintenance free with no hydraulics to service.

All Stainless Steel Tabletop Construction

Heavy duty stainless steel construction keeps the press easy to clean and built for long, trouble-free service. The footprint is about 17-5/8 in. wide by 32-3/8 in. deep including the discharge chute, and 26 in. tall, so it fits on a standard work table.
