About MiiTi Infrarød grill

MiiTi er en infrarød grill med høj temperatur designet til indendørs brug. Med en driftstemperatur på cirka 400 °C leverer den direkte og ensartet varmeoverførsel, som bevarer saftighed og naturlig smag. Det topmonterede varmesystem reducerer røg og lugt ved at forhindre direkte kontakt med olie. Den oppefra-og-ned-vendte konfiguration sikrer ensartede resultater på tværs af forskellige madtykkelser. Med sin kompakte form, modulære opbygning, ergonomiske håndtering og rustfri stålkabinet med glasdetaljer passer den til moderne køkkenmiljøer og tilbyder en alternativ tilgang til konventionelle grillmetoder.

Production Technology
MiiTi is manufactured using stainless steel and tempered glass, ensuring hygiene, durability, and easy cleaning. All materials are food-contact safe and long-lasting. The recyclable structure supports sustainable manufacturing and ease of repair. Designed for mass production, it uses recyclable components and optimized assembly to minimize environmental impact.
Design Challenge
The main challenge was selecting materials that withstand extreme heat without deformation, as cooking temperatures reached 400 - 500 degrees Celsius. Ensuring safety and durability required multiple tests. Sourcing suitable infrared filaments with precise specifications was also difficult. These obstacles demanded intense research, collaboration with suppliers, and careful engineering to bring the concept to life.
Research
The need for faster cooking among individuals with busy lifestyles was observed. To replicate the flavor of grilling indoors, the wavelength of infrared filaments was analyzed and confirmed to match the emission spectrum of glowing charcoal embers. In university-supported tests, MiiTi was compared with a conventional oven and a charcoal grill; pH and acrylamide levels were equivalent, while MiiTi cooked significantly faster. These findings laid the foundation for a high-performance, energy-efficient cooking system with broad application potential.
Inspiration
MiiTi merges traditional cooking with fast, energy-efficient infrared technology to meet modern expectations of speed, flavor, and cleanliness. Research focused on reducing smoke and odor while enhancing usability, hygiene, and taste. The project was inspired by the challenge of achieving the intense sear and satisfaction of grilling, without the drawbacks of outdoor cooking.
Project Duration
The project started in July 2021 and finished in April 2025 in Eskisehir, Tanatar Die and Stamps co. ltd.
Operation Flow
Cooking with MiiTi feels easy and comfortable. Place your food, adjust the top, and turn the knob. In seconds, the surface sizzles, locking in all the flavor. The tray glides out smoothly, making it safe to check and handle your meal. Less smoke, less smell, less cleanup. What remains is the joy of cooking - faster, cleaner, and full of rich taste, like a perfect grill night, but right in your kitchen.
