rudolf küper:
I have been a baker for 68 years and have
experienced the entire development process since the times
when ovens were heated with coal. Today we bake a broad
range of products in different types of ovens. For bread and
rolls we use the MATADOR
®
which gives a beautiful crust
and an intense flavor. Pastry and specialty rolls are made in
the ROTOTHERM while our fried baked goods are produced
on Linie 2000M by WP RIEHLE. When I was a young baker,
there were only three different types of bread that were
baked in an oven with double brick walls. The dough pieces
had to be placed on the peel boards by hand. It was heavy
work that was made easier with our first MATADOR
®
.
Gabriele Schürk:
In terms of technology, we also follow
our motto “Maintain the proven and replace the outdated”.
Take the MATADOR
®
oven for example. After loading and
baking with radiation heat only, without reheating and at
falling temperatures, our popular signature bread develops
a beautiful crust and a great flavor. We have always been
satisfied with the MATADOR
®
oven. We have replaced it
with a newer model because the advanced computer con-
trol makes work easier. For us quality also means being
technically up to date.
How has your bakery equipment changed over the years?
