Smart Commercial Ramen Cooker
Sale price$695.00Regular price
$745.00
The NEO CUCINA Pro is a commercial countertop ramen cooker that boils the noodles with induction heat instead of pouring hot water over them. Cooking happens inside a disposable paper bowl, so a fresh bowl is ready in 3 to 5 minutes with no pot and nothing to wash. It takes about half the counter space of a microwave and needs no hood, no gas line, and no plumbing work.
Three functions in one machine
- Ramen cooker. Induction heating brings the bowl to a real boil. Works with packaged ramen, udon, pho, oatmeal, and other boil-in-bowl foods.
- Instant hot water dispenser. Five temperature settings and ten volume settings.
- Induction cooktop. The same heating surface works with your own induction-compatible pots and pans.
How it is operated
- Scan the barcode on the ramen package and the machine applies the matching program. Over 100 ramen varieties sold in the US are recognized, with more added by cloud update.
- Or use one of four one-tap presets. Presets can be edited on the 8-inch touchscreen or remotely through the web dashboard.
- The machine adds the water, runs the heat, and stops on its own. No measuring and no timer to set.
- Customers can run it themselves, or staff can serve it.
- Customers can pay at the machine by scanning a QR code on the screen, or through your existing POS or card reader.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need professional installation, or can I set it up myself?
No professional installation needed. The machine ships ready to use. Place it on any counter, connect a water jug or direct water line, plug into a standard 110V outlet, and power on. Most operators are up and running within an hour of receiving the unit. No contractor, no plumber, no electrician required.
For setup tutorials, see the included manual or our YouTube channel (@NEOCUCINA). If questions remain, reach out to support@neocucina.com or WhatsApp +1 (949) 213-6301.
Does the machine work with a water jug or direct water line?
The NEO CUCINA ramen cooker supports both water jug and direct water line setups.
Out of the box, it can draw water from a standard external water jug, and no permanent plumbing is required. If preferred, it can also be connected to a direct water line for higher-volume or fixed installations.
This flexibility makes it easy to deploy in offices, cafés, convenience stores, hotels, and self-serve setups.
How do customers pay at the machine?
Two ways, and you can use either. Customers can pay through your existing setup, whether that's your POS, cash register, or a card reader, then cook at the machine. The machine also supports on-machine payment: customers scan a QR code on the screen and pay from their phone, and cooking starts once payment clears. That means it can also run in unattended spots with no checkout at all.
Do you sell ramen, soup, or toppings?
We do not sell ramen, soup bases, or toppings directly. The machine and the disposable paper bowls (with optional lids) are what we provide.
To make sourcing easier, we provide a curated SKU list of ramen brands and toppings that operators sell well, along with direct purchase links. This gives you a practical starting point for products that are easy to source, operator-friendly, and proven to perform.
Do you sell bowls and lids?
Yes. We sell our induction-safe disposable paper bowls and matching lids designed to fit and work with the NEO CUCINA ramen cooker for a clean, consistent serve every time. You can purchase them here.
Do you offer discounts for ordering multiple units?
Yes. We offer volume-based pricing for multi-unit orders. Contact our team for details and tailored solutions.
Do you offer payment plans or financing?
We do not offer in-house installment or financing plans. However, there are a couple of options available:
- Shop Pay: If you purchase through our website, you may be eligible for installment payment options through Shop Pay at checkout. Eligibility is determined by Shop Pay at the time of purchase.
- Third-party financing: We do not arrange external financing on your behalf, but you are welcome to use any third-party equipment financing provider or lender of your choice.
What certifications does the NEO CUCINA machine have?
The NEO CUCINA machine is ETL Listed and ETL Sanitation certified, which means it has been tested for electrical safety and sanitation requirements for commercial equipment. These certifications are equivalent to UL and NSF standards for commercial use, so the machine is compliant for commercial operation in applicable settings.
