Abstract
A process and apparatus for heating, cooling or heating and cooling multiple chambers of a food preparation device utilizing heated and/or cooled nebulized water particles and heated and/or cooled compressed air. The steps of heating include heating water contained in reservoir located outside of the cooking chambers, heating compressed air, conveying the heated water and the heated compressed air to at least one nebulizer, nebulizing the heated water into heated water particles and introducing the heated water particles into the cooking chamber via the heated compressed air. The steps of cooling include cooling water contained in an additional reservoir located outside of the cooking chambers, cooling compressed air, conveying the cooled water and the cooled compressed air to at least one nebulizer, nebulizing the cooled water into cooled water particles and introducing the cooled water particles into the cooking chamber via the cooled compressed air.
