Hengel retarder prover chambers bring controlled cold and warm proving to whole trolleys loaded with grids or mesh trays. Batches can be held back and then proved on a timed programme, and the chambers adapt to all types of production, from artisan bakeries to the most demanding food manufacturers, to optimise hydration, crumb structure and aroma development. The Bi-Tronic SLIDE interface allows every type of fermentation with controlled timing, temperature and humidity: slow proving, traditional linear or staged proving, and steaming.
