BAKE TIME VERSUS TEMPERATURE
1. Bake time is actually conveyor speed and is
de
fi
ned as the time the product is actually in the
oven. This is measured by noting the time when
the leading edge of the product enters the oven
and the time the leading edge of the product
leaves the oven. This is adjusted by using the
conveyor speed controller.
2. Bake temperature is adjusted by changing the
setpoint of the temperature controller to the
desired bake temperature. When the oven
reaches the desired temperature, the red dot in
the lower right corner of the temperature display
will turn off and on as the controller maintains
the temperature.
3. When establishing a bake time and temperature
for a given product, the general rule shall be as
the bake time increases the bake temperature
decreases and the reverse is also true; increase
temperature, decrease time. However, there
are limits to the above rule. Going to extremes
will result in a burnt exterior and raw interior or
it will result in a very light color but over-baked
product.
4. Once a good bake has been established, the
fi
ne
adjustments should be made by holding either
the bake time or bake temperature constant,
then varying the other.
CONVEYOR SPEED
Bake Time (Conveyor Speed) - As stated previously,
bake time (conveyor speed) is de
fi
ned as the amount
of time elapsed between the time the leading edge of
the product enters the oven and the leading edge of
the product exits the oven. Bake time is controlled by
adjusting the digital speed controller. The setting on
the control panel indicates the actual bake time.
Bake time will be the same for any size
product.
TIME OF DELIVERY
The time of delivery is the amount of elapsed time
between the period when the leading edge of the
product enters the oven and the trailing edge of
the product is fully discharged and is ready to be
delivered to the customer.
Time of delivery changes if the product size
changes.
Tip:
Train yourself not to pull the product out of the
oven when the leading edge comes out. Always wait
until the entire product is out - the product needs this
time to fully bake.
BAKE vs. DELIVERY TIME
Time to Delivery changes with product
but Bake Time remains constant
at a steady conveyor speed.
