Two-stage mixing takes center stage
Two-stage batch mixing brings multiple advantages to industrial-scale baking. Two-stage batch mixing is especially suited to long-fermentation doughs, where structure and flavor are needed.
RBS: “This technology revolutionizes mixing for cracker production”
Chip Czulada embarked on a new role as the President of Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) at the beginning of 2024. He shares with Baking+Biscuit International magazine his view on the first six months at the helm of the company where he has been working for over 20 years.
A fully-automated flow
Fully automating kneading and mixing is an ambitious endeavor, given the complexity of the process, and the diversity of raw ingredients.
The art of IMPRESSA bread: new technology by FRITSCH
Making its debut on the best stage for a first impression, at iba, the new, compact IMPRESSA bread line developed by FRITSCH for industrial production manages to save 20% of the floor space – about 5 m. This was accomplished, in part, by new sheeting technology incorporated in the revised Soft Dough Sheeter (SDS) and the new Soft Dough Roller (SDR).
A vacuum baking revolution
To optimize in-store baking efficiency, the UDO baking technology is one to watch. It stands for Univac Double-bake Oven and is powered by Cetravac AG’s patented innovation. Developed under the bakeXperts brand, the UDO opens the door to a new world of baking in-store.
In-store baking with UDO technology: a vacuum-powered revolution
The UDO can bake frozen, ambient-stored raw dough, or parbaked products such as rolls, baguettes and even larger loaves and cool them to perfect-to-eat level in less than 5-10 minutes. It does so while achieving perfectly even heating and retaining all product characteristics, consistently.
The proof is in the technology: Reading Bakery Systems
Technology innovation not only ensures the right temperature, airflow and humidity settings, but also addresses a priceless ingredient in baking: time. Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) recently launched a new multi-pass proofer, which was designed to do both. It is designed to be flexible in function, footprint, and form.
Continuous mixing improvements for high-capacity production
Technological developments make continuous mixing a better option than batch mixing, especially so for high-volume production. High throughput continuous mixers are becoming the best sellers in this equipment category.
The more, the better
Over the years, advances in continuous mixing have been developed to improve ingredient metering, process controls and include specialized mixer designs and ultra-high capacity mixers. Compared to batch mixing, such technological developments make continuous mixing a better option than batch mixing, especially so for high-volume production.
The steps to dough consistency: Exact Mixing
Automated continuous mixing delivers real-time process assessment and consistency round the clock.
RBS launches ambient cooling conveyor for cracker systems
Reading Bakery Systems (RBS) introduced a new ambient cooling conveyor, with increased efficiency in cooling crackers before entering packaging in a more‐compact footprint.
