Batch mixing: as great as the sum of its parts
Batch mixing goes hand-in-hand with product diversity and varying quantities. It ensures the uniform distribution of the ingredients in the mix, with strict recipe control, yet great flexibility for diversity in formulations.
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.
Reliability is earned
Spiral cooling and freezing systems have an unmatched capability to save space. For process consistency, they must also ensure even temperature distribution, and an uninterrupted conveying movement for minimum downtimes, while being easy to clean and maintain. Energy efficiency and scalability features are also important checkboxes for a reliable piece of equipment.
“Cooling down is just one aspect of the process”
Verhoeven Family of Companies launched its latest technology, its vacuum cooling and baking technology, remotely. However, equipment testing and adjusting the process to the specifics of the destination environment is key.
The French flair for pastries
Viennoiserie and puff pastries enjoy unwavering commitment from consumers. Along with the enthusiasm around all things patisserie, expectations are also rising.
Optimum process for a world of sourdoughs
No two sourdoughs are the same; its value lies in its diversity. Perfecting different sourdough specialties relies on process accuracy and stability, with optimum kneading and mixing parameters for each type of product.
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.
VMI: A good mix
When choosing the optimum equipment to perfect the process, technologies for batch and continuous mixing can bring the best-suited functionalities for each product range, manufacturing plant and operation.
Easy as pie: AMF Bakery Systems automated lines for pies
The automated line designed by AMF Tromp can flexibly support a wide range of pies, either savory or sweet, in a baking tray, in foils, or in paper cups. They can bake the pie shells only, pies with the top opened or closed and pies with or without a lattice decoration. For (pre-)baking the pies, AMF recommends a Den Boer Multibake tunnel oven with impingement heating or a direct-fired system.
How to scale up artisan bread production
Better-for-you preferences also apply to bread. Several mixing options help increase production volumes while providing goods that still feel and taste artisan-made.
Pizza: AMF lines to keep them coming
For industrial production, pizza lines are made to welcome any variations required. Accurate processes are a must for these flexible lines.
