Yasaki Double Speeds 5L Table Top Cutter Mixer / Bowl Cutter BC-5V2

The Yasaki BC-5V2 is a 5-litre table-top cutter mixer and bowl cutter with two speeds — 1,500 and 2,800 rpm — plus a pulse function, driven by a 1,500 W motor. Its polycarbonate lid carries a built-in scraper and allows liquids and spices to be added while it runs, which is what makes it usable for emulsions and progressive mixes rather than single-shot batches. It needs a 15 A supply.

Why operators choose the BC-5V2

• Two speeds plus pulse — 1,500 rpm for a controlled chop, 2,800 rpm for a fine paste, and pulse for the cuts that need judgement rather than duration
• Lid-mounted scraper — brings product back off the bowl wall without stopping and opening — the difference between an even mix and a ring of unprocessed product
• Add liquids and spices while running — oil into an emulsion, stock into a farce — the machine builds a recipe rather than just chopping
• 5 L food-grade stainless bowl — a real commercial batch for herbs, breadcrumbs, minced meat and pastes
• 1,500 W heavy-duty motor — sized for continuous commercial duty rather than intermittent use
• Safety microswitch — the machine will not run with the lid off
• Accessories dishwasher safe except the blade — the blade is hand-wash only; everything else goes through the machine
• Stainless steel housing — wipes down and survives a commercial prep bench

Specifications

Venue suitability

The BC-5V2 suits restaurants, caterers, delis and production kitchens making pastes, farces, herb mixes, breadcrumbs and emulsions. At 326 mm wide it fits a crowded prep bench; the constraint to confirm is the 15 A supply.

Installation & delivery

It needs a 15 A outlet, not a standard 10 A one — a 15 A plug has a larger earth pin and will not fit a normal socket, so confirm a 15 A circuit is available or budget for an electrician to add one. Allow 326 mm of bench with clearance above to lift the lid and remove the bowl and blade. Site it near a sink — the bowl and lid are dishwasher safe but the blade must be washed by hand. Dispatched from our Sydney HQ with partner warehouses in Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth for faster delivery Australia-wide. Backed by a 2-year return-to-base warranty — the unit is returned for service rather than attended on site. See our warranty information page for full terms.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Will the BC-5V2 run from a normal power point? A: No. At 1.5kW it needs a 15A outlet. A 15A plug has a larger earth pin and will not fit a standard 10A socket, so confirm a 15A circuit or budget for an electrician.

Q: What do the two speeds give me? A: 1,500 rpm for a controlled chop and 2,800 rpm for a fine paste, with a pulse function for cuts that need judgement rather than a set duration.

Q: What does the lid scraper do? A: It brings product back off the bowl wall while the machine runs. Without one you stop, open the lid and scrape by hand — and product left on the wall is product that never gets processed evenly.

Q: Can everything go in the dishwasher? A: All accessories are dishwasher safe except the blade, which is hand wash only.

Q: Can ingredients be added while it is running? A: Yes. The lid is designed to allow liquids and spices to be added mid-cycle, which is what makes emulsions possible.

Q: What warranty applies? A: Two years, return to base. The unit is returned for service rather than a technician attending on site.
