Bakers agree that Carbon Build up on bakery pans and equipment is unsightly, unhygienic and a barrier to heat. As Carbon builds up on the pans, increasing amounts of heat is required, thereby slowing down the baking process. Since the layer of Carbon is unevenly distributed over the surface of the pans, the resulting baked goods is uneven and can even be deformed.
Carbon Flakes also stick to the bread and aside from being unsightly, they alter the taste of the baked goods.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO HAVE CLEAN BAKING PANS?
Having clean bakery pans is important for several reasons:
Food Safety: One of the primary reasons for keeping bakery pans clean is to ensure food safety. Baking pans can come into contact with various ingredients, including raw dough, batter, and fillings. If not properly cleaned, these residues can promote the growth of harmful bacteria, such as Salmonella or E. coli, which can cause foodborne illnesses when ingested.
Consistency in Flavor: Residue from previous baked goods can impart unwanted flavors to new batches of baked goods. For example, if you bake chocolate cookies on a pan that previously held garlic bread, the cookies may taste like garlic. Clean pans help maintain the intended flavor profile of your baked goods.
Aesthetic Appeal: Clean bakery pans result in more visually appealing baked goods. Baked goods can stick to dirty or greasy pans, leading to uneven browning and an unattractive appearance. Clean pans ensure that your baked goods release easily and look appetizing.
Even Baking: Clean pans provide a smooth and even surface for baking. Residue buildup can create hot spots or uneven heating, which can lead to unevenly baked or burnt baked goods.
Durability: Regularly cleaning bakery pans can extend their lifespan. Accumulated residue, such as burnt-on food or grease, can damage the pan’s surface over time, making it less effective for baking.
Compliance with Regulations: In commercial baking operations, cleanliness and hygiene standards are often regulated by health and food safety authorities. Maintaining clean bakery pans is essential to comply with these regulations and avoid potential legal issues or fines.
Customer Satisfaction: Cleanliness and hygiene are crucial for customer satisfaction. Customers are more likely to return to a bakery that consistently produces clean and safe baked goods. Conversely, dirty or unclean pans can deter customers and harm a bakery’s reputation.
Ease of Baking: Clean pans make the baking process more efficient. Baked goods are less likely to stick to clean pans, which means less wasted product and easier cleanup for bakers.
To maintain clean bakery pans, it’s important to establish a regular cleaning routine that includes thorough washing, degreasing, and sanitizing. This ensures that your baked goods are safe, delicious, and visually appealing while also prolonging the life of your baking equipment.

GLUTEN FREE BAKERIES
A gluten-free bakery can benefit from cleaning with a heated soak tank in several ways. Gluten-free baking requires stringent measures to prevent cross-contamination with gluten-containing ingredients, and maintaining a clean and gluten-free environment is crucial for the safety of individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.
The DECARBONATOR is the latest generation in heated soak tank technology with several models to accommodate your production requirements
Here are some ways that the DECARBONATOR heated soak tank can be advantageous for a gluten-free bakery:
1. Effective Removal of Gluten Residue: Gluten proteins can be very sticky and adhere to surfaces, making them difficult to remove with traditional cleaning methods. A DECARBONATOR, using heated water and our safe detergent CarbonZyme, can effectively break down and remove gluten residues from baking equipment and utensils.
2. Prevention of Cross-Contamination: Cross-contamination is a significant concern in gluten-free bakeries, as even trace amounts of gluten can cause health issues for customers with gluten sensitivities. By using a DECARBONATOR, you can ensure that all equipment and utensils are thoroughly cleaned, reducing the risk of cross-contamination.
3. Time and Labor Savings: Traditional manual scrubbing and soaking can be time-consuming and require substantial labor. A DECARBONATOR can streamline the cleaning process by automating the removal of gluten residues, allowing staff to focus on other essential tasks in the bakery.
4. Consistency in Cleaning: DECARBONATORs provide a consistent and thorough cleaning process, ensuring that every piece of equipment is cleaned to the same high standard. This consistency is crucial in a gluten-free bakery where strict cleaning protocols are essential.5.
5. Extended Equipment Lifespan: Proper cleaning with a DECARBONATOR can help extend the lifespan of your bakery equipment. Gluten residues can be corrosive over time, leading to equipment deterioration. Regular cleaning with a soak tank can mitigate this issue.
6. Compliance with Health Regulations: Many health regulations and food safety standards require gluten-free bakeries to maintain specific cleanliness standards to ensure customer safety. Using a DECARBONATOR can help your bakery meet these requirements and pass inspections with ease.
7. Improved Customer Confidence: Knowing that your bakery is committed to rigorous cleaning procedures can boost customer confidence. Customers with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease are more likely to trust and frequent a bakery that takes their dietary needs seriously.
8. Reduced Risk of Allergic Reactions: By thoroughly cleaning equipment with a DECARBONATOR, you minimize the risk of accidental gluten exposure, which can lead to allergic reactions and health issues in sensitive individuals. This, in turn, can help protect your bakery from liability.
In summary, a DECARBONATOR can be a valuable asset for a gluten-free bakery by ensuring the removal of gluten residues, preventing cross-contamination, saving time and labor, maintaining consistency in cleaning, complying with health regulations, extending equipment lifespan, boosting customer confidence, and reducing the risk of allergic reactions. It’s an investment in both food safety and the success of your gluten-free bakery.

PAN GLAZING
Glazing pans is expensive, time consuming and a hassle.
You need enough baking equipment on hand while the rest is being cleaned.
A solution to this very real problem is to clean the equipment in the DECARBONATOR as often as necessary at a fraction of the cost of glazing.
Compare the costs of in-house cleaning in the DECARBONATOR to pan cleaning services
Initially, heavy Carbon build up may require a longer soak time. Once the Carbon is removed, the maintenance soak time is dramatically reduced.
Clean equipment speeds up the baking process with the possibility of an additional bake cycle per day.
RACK WASHERS
Bakery racks are often seen by customers and the black carbon Build up is unsightly and unhygienic.
They are extremely time consuming to keep clean because the Carbon Build up is encrusted on the metal.
Carbon flakes from the racks often end up on the baked products.
