What Data Do You Need to Record in a Thermometer Calibration Log?
A thermometer calibration log is an essential component to any industrial oven maintenance program. Here’s what you should include in the log.
4 Tools You Need To Have For Oven Maintenance
Maintaining a food processing oven requires special tools to ensure the oven is operating at peak performance. Evaluating air flow and speed, finding air leaks, setting dampers, determining static pressures and gas burner settings, and calibrating probes are normal, sometimes every day, maintenance tasks that require specialized tools. Larger food processing companies likely already have these tools on hand. However, start-ups and smaller food processors
6 Maintenance Tested & Approved Features You Need in an Oven
A commercial smokehouse or dehydrator is a big investment — one that requires regular checks and maintenance to keep it running efficiently. An oven designed to provide easy access to the components that require regular and preventative maintenance will reduce the time your team needs to upkeep the oven. The less amount of time spent maintaining and repairing an oven results in more cook time,
How to Schedule Maintenance to Ensure Longer Oven Life
A commercial smokehouse or dehydrator is a big investment — one that requires regular and ongoing maintenance to ensure a long oven life. Commercial oven manufacturers provide information on how and what should be routinely inspected and maintained, but in many facilities, those instructions are often buried in a user manual that gets stuck in a drawer somewhere or made inaccessible to maintenance personnel. Regular
4 Oven Airflow Calculations You Need to Know
Airflow is the most important feature of any industrial smokehouse or dehydrator. It’s the airflow that is ultimately responsible for creating the breakpoint that in turn cooks product in the oven. The better the airflow, the stronger the breakpoint, and the more consistently product will cook — resulting in better yields, better coloring, and better texture. The airflow is critically important to any cooking process,
