The Carte Comp+ electric pressure fryer is the flagship model in the MFF range — the most advanced model in terms of programming before moving up to the Henny Penny range. Its Comp+ control panel offers 8 programming levels on each of the 10 buttons on the dashboard, giving up to 80 distinct, fully customisable cooking profiles. Each level independently controls the cooking temperature, time and pressure — enabling recipes of a complexity and precision impossible to achieve with a standard Compu T. Combined with the automatic filtration pump, it represents the ultimate investment for a chicken fast-food outlet seeking total control over its process.
Comp+ Board vs Compu T Board: the practical difference
The Compu T is already a precision control board — but the Comp+ goes significantly further in the level of control it gives the operator:
| Criterion | Comp+ control board (this model) | Compu T control board (from €3,490 excl. VAT) |
|---|
| Price excluding VAT, including pump | €11,990 | €4,890 |
| Levels per key | 8 programmable levels | Multiple phases per button |
| Available cooking profiles | Up to 80 distinct profiles (10 × 8) | 10 stored recipes |
| Control accuracy | Maximum — each level is an independent phase | Very high — multi-stage profiles |
| Recipe complexity | Recipes with 8 successive steps per key | Standard multi-step recipes |
| Recommended profile | Intensive production, highly sophisticated processes, demanding multi-site operations | High throughput, high degree of standardisation, production lines |
The Comp+ is the obvious choice when recipes require very fine adjustments to parameters across several successive stages — for example, a gradual pressure build-up, a stabilisation phase, followed by a controlled pressure release — all with perfect reproducibility over hundreds of daily cycles.
Why invest in the Comp+ rather than the Compu T?
The price difference between the two models is significant. It is justified in specific situations:
- Highly sophisticated proprietary recipes: you have developed a unique cooking process — marinating, breading, double dipping, resting time — which requires a cooking sequence comprising several distinct phases. The Comp+ is the only MFF machine capable of storing and reproducing this complexity exactly.
- Very high-volume production: several hundred kilos of chicken per day, with multiple machines operating in parallel. The Comp+ offers the level of precision required to optimise every parameter at this scale of production.
- Development of a franchise or an exportable concept: you want to lock your recipe into the machine’s settings so that no operator — regardless of their skill level — can alter it. The Comp+ enables this level of control.
- A gradual transition to the Henny Penny range: you wish to achieve the level of quality and control found in large chains without immediately investing in a brand-new Henny Penny. The Comp+ is the intermediate step before reaching that level.
What type of establishment is it for?
- Upmarket chicken fast-food restaurant: your key differentiator is product quality — crispy, tender, with a unique flavour profile. Every cooking parameter is fine-tuned. The Comp+ gives you the tools to formalise this level of exacting standards.
- High-volume dark kitchens (several hundred orders per day): at this volume, even the slightest variation in settings has a noticeable impact on perceived quality. The Comp+ guarantees consistency across every cycle, at any time during service.
- Expanding restaurant chains: you standardise your process before opening new outlets. The Comp+ allows you to lock in the settings and deploy them identically across every machine in the network.
- High-volume caterers or producers: production of fried chicken for supermarkets, contract catering or export. The volume justifies the investment in maximum precision.
