OVENS
Ovens are the workhorses of the bakery and pastry shop and are essential
for producing the bakery products. Ovens are enclosed spaces in which
food is heated, usually by hot air. Several kinds of ovens are used in baking.
1. Deck Oven-it consists of two to four
wide, flat decks stacked one above
another, through single deck. The
food is placed directly on the floor of a
deck oven rather than on a wire rack
as done in a conventional oven.
2. Conventional oven-an oven located
below a range top. The heat source is
located at bottom, underneath the
floor of the oven, and the heat is
conducted through the floor. The food
is placed on wire racks that may be
set at different heights within the
oven.
3. Convection Oven-it contains fan that
circulate the air and distribute the
heat rapidly throughout the interior.
The strong
forced air can distort the shape of the
products made with batter and soft
dough.
4. Steam- Injection Oven-has vent
steam into the oven as bread and
rolls bake. The steam helps to
develop the crust and ensures that
yeast-raised breads stay moist long
enough to expand properly during
baking.
5. Combi – Oven-This oven combines
the advantages of steaming and
convection. They can be used in
steam mode, hot-air convection mode
or heat/steam mode.
