The webinar introduces bakery processes from concept through construction. It discusses bread processing steps from receiving ingredients to shipping finished product. Key aspects of mixing, fermentation, proofing, baking and cooling are explained. Safety considerations for bakeries and construction sites are reviewed. Standard layouts for bakery buildings and sites are presented. The schedule for a typical construction project is outlined. Sanitation details are important design considerations. The presentation provides a comprehensive overview of bakery operations and construction.

Good Manufacturing Practices
Bakeries
− Hair nets, including beards
− No loose jewelry or rings with settings
− All items in pockets below waist
− Smocks
Construction
− Typically wouldn’t apply, however, in
renovation projects, construction areas must
be properly barricaded to avoid product
contamination

Fermentation
Floor Time
− Dough is more viscous
(flowable) immediately after
mixing. Resting allows the
dough to become more elastic.
Retarding
− A step that elongates fermentation by
refrigerating the dough.
−PROS: Flavor development and ability to mix
larger batches and store until needed.
−CON: Dries out dough.

Bread Labels
Bakers Percent – instead of a typical
recipe, everything is calculated based on
flour being 100%.
2% Line – On a nutritional label,
everything below “Yeast” usually contains
less than 2% of the formula.

Bread Quality
Baker control measures:
− Look, temperature, pH, feel, specific gravity,
proof temp & time, oven temp & time,
cooling temp & time, mix temp & time
− Cost (ingredients, labor, utilities)
Consumer judging characteristics:
− External – color, shape, volume, softness,
toppings, mold, lack of foreign material
− Internal – taste, texture, crumb color, crumb
structure/cell size
− Price

Trends in Baking
Reuse of mixed dough into recipe
− Has been a standard procedure – improves
volume, minimizes waste, improves
consistency between batches
NOW BEING CONSIDERED A BAD PRACTICE
−Traceability – what if there was a defect?
Where would you start and stop product recall
since dough was used from previous mixes?
−Allergens
