ABSTRACT:
A proofing oven which uniformly proofs large quantities of raised-dough goods and eliminates the need for special expertise to produce uniformly-proofed baked goods is provided. The proofing oven includes a proofing chamber; a heat source for providing a desired controllable, stable and uniform proofing temperature in the proofing chamber; a humidifier for introducing a desired controlled humidity into the proofing chamber; a dehumidifier for removing moisture from the proofing chamber to maintain such controlled humidity; an air circulation system for circulating the controlled air of the proofing chamber throughout the chamber and providing a mild turbulent air flow uniformly over the goods being proofed in the chamber; and a control system for setting and automatically regulating the proofing environment of the proofing chamber, including the time of proofing and the temperature and humidity in the proofing chamber for the particular goods and/or proofing requirements.
