(What is a Work Item? / How to Input to a Work Item)

Work Item: ASTM WK36255 - Revision of F1786 - 97(2010) Standard Test Method for Performance of Braising Pans


Active Standard: F1786 - 97(2010)

Developed by Subcommittee: F26.06 | Committee F26 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

The current test method does not accurately reflect typical braising pan usage in commercial kitchens. While the efficiency test provides a measure of heat transfer efficacy, it does not accurately reflect the cook times or production capabilities of a commercial braising pan. Additional cooking tests will be developed that will characterize braising pan performance under representative operating conditions.
