It’s also important to select an industrial baking oven that’s going to be dependable for a long time. It needs to provide you with consistency and reliability for years and years to come.
But, choosing the exact right oven for your bakery isn’t as easy as it may seem. When you begin shopping around for an industrial baking oven, you will discover that the options are seemingly endless. With so many on the market, how do you choose?
The first thing to understand is the basic different types of industrial ovens. This will help you determine which one will work best for your needs and meet your business goals.
Basic Types of Industrial Baking Ovens
Convection Oven
This is the most common and popular type of industrial baking oven because it’s the most affordable. A convection oven is the best choice for loaves of bread and individual cakes. This oven uses internal fans to circulate heat so that your batters and doughs bake evenly.
Rack Oven
If the amount of baked goods you produce is a priority, a rack oven may be the right choice for your bakery. If you’re planning to have a large-scale supply of bread or cookies at all times, a rack oven allows multiple goods to be baked at the same time.
Stone Deck Oven
If you’re an artisan baker who uses old-world style baking methods, a stone deck oven may be perfect for your bakery. These ovens provide modern heat distribution with artisan results, and they require less maintenance than a convection oven. They also feature stone decks, which means up to four chambers can be baking different items at once.
Revolution Oven
A revolution oven allows you to bake different types of goods at the same time via revolving trays.
And, that’s just the start! There are all sorts of sub-types of industrial baking ovens as well. The most important thing is to ask yourself questions to rule out what you don’t need—and then you can focus on what you do need.
The right industrial baking oven for you will depend not only on the type of goods you make, but also how many you’ll be producing per day, your personal baking process, the oven’s ease of use and baking speed, your building’s size and codes, and your budget.
