Abstract

The industrial practice in bread making is to bake bread in an oven that is controlled at a constant temperature. Due to the oven structure, the bread effectively experiences four major temperature zones. On the other hand, temperature in each zone is the dominating factor on the baking mechanisms including gelatinisation, enzymatic reaction and browning reaction, therefore the final bread quality. This research aims to establish an optimal temperature profile for white-sandwich bread to achieve the best product quality. Experiments were conducted by a multi-level partial factorial design, where dough was baked in a process with 4 equally divided zones. Mathematical models were established to describe the effects of tin temperature and baking time in bread quality attributes
