The perfect add-on for one of our commercial seafood boilers, this cleaner streamlines your workflow and ensures that your patrons receive the highest quality seafood. Depend on HPC for commercial cooking equipment that gets the job done right and holds up to daily use.

This industrial crawfish purger will clean a load of crawfish in minutes by pumping high-pressure air through the water to filter out mud and dirt.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a crawfish purge?

Purging a crawfish is a process that removes impurities and the black vein from crawfish. There are many techniques, such as prolonged soaking or a saltwater bath.

That said, crawfish and seafood boils are such serious business here that researchers at Louisiana State University chimed in and said both are ineffective, unnecessary, and possibly even counterproductive.

That’s why we recommend this crawfish purger to speed up the process: it’s backed by science!

Do crawfish have to be purged?

Although purging for 24+ hours is a common technique, it’s not required. Some individuals and businesses purge crawfish to improve taste, texture, and appearance. As long as the crawfish are thoroughly cleaned before cooking, a true, full purge isn’t mandatory.

How do professional crawfish cleaners work?

Professional crawfish cleaners pump high-pressure air through the water in the crawfish purge tank to tumble and stir the crawfish, which removes dirt, debris, and impurities. A continuous flow of water filters mud and dirt and flows out the drain port to keep the water in the tank clean.
