YG-B01 vs YG-B01-Pro: which smart cooking machine should you choose?
Use this guide to compare YAO MASTER models by kitchen space, batch capacity, output method, cleaning workflow and automation level before requesting a demo.
Short answer
Choose YG-B01 for compact smart cooking. Choose YG-B01-Pro when automatic dish output and cleaning matter.
Both models support YAO MASTER's commercial cooking logic for repeatable menus. The practical difference is not taste logic but workflow: YG-B01 needs more manual support around dish output and cleaning, while YG-B01-Pro adds automation that can reduce operator load in higher-frequency kitchens.
Choose YG-B01-Pro when workflow automation matters
YG-B01-Pro is stronger when the kitchen needs automatic dish output, automatic cleaning, lower operator intervention or a more repeatable chain-store workflow during peak hours.
Do not choose only by batch capacity
YG-B01 supports up to 7kg per batch, while YG-B01-Pro supports up to 6kg per batch. Capacity matters, but output method, cleaning time and operator workload often decide the better commercial fit.

Workflow
Who loads ingredients, who outputs dishes and who cleans the machine.
Rollout
One-store test, chain rollout, central kitchen or distributor demo.
FAQ
Common model selection questions
Are the recipes different between the two models?
The core cooking logic is shared. The model decision is mainly about output workflow, cleaning workflow, space and automation level.
Is Pro always better?
Not always. If manual output and cleaning are easy in your kitchen, YG-B01 may be the cleaner deployment. Pro is better when automation solves a real bottleneck.
Which model is better for chain restaurants?
YG-B01-Pro is usually worth evaluating first for chain restaurants because automatic dish output and cleaning can reduce operator variation across stores.
What is the next step after choosing a likely model?
Send your menu, kitchen space, daily volume and cleaning workflow so the team can confirm model fit and demo direction.
