ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for proofing lumps of dough has an endless conveyor. A series of first cups are mounted on one side of the conveyor for transporting lumps of dough and series of second cups are mounted on the opposite side of the conveyor of transporting lumps of dough. The second cups are spaced from the first cups, and the first and second cups have the conveyor disposed therebetween. Also, the first and second cups are staggered relative to each other so that the distance between each first cup and an adjacent second cup is equal to the distance between that second cup and the next first cup along the conveyor. Lumps of dough are loaded into the first and second cups and, after having been transported, are discharged from the first and second cups. The endless conveyor and the first and second cups are contained in an enclosure in which a proofing environment for the lumps of dough is provided.
