 doughLAB
doughLAB is the most flexible
instrument available for understanding the
rheological behaviour of wheat flour doughs
for bread baking and other applications.
Applications include milling, baking, Asian
products (eg
steam bread, noodles and chapatti)and other
cereal grains (eg rye, triticale and durum).
doughLAB can perform AACC
and RACI standard tests to provide Farinograph
equivalent results and can accommodate standard
z-arm mixing bowls. Determine key information
such as water absorption and mixing profile
of doughs (eg development time, stability
and softening) in a simple, automated test
routine.
In addition, derive process-relevant
using the variable mixing speed feature
to better match the high energy input of
modern commercial mixing of bread doughs.
Integrated temperature control
and water dispensing, on board computer
to control both testing and analysis, and
traceable calibration complete the sophisticated
doughLAB package.
 Bowls
300g bowl with temperature
control, z-arm mixing blades, safety lid
and safety release clutch for doughLAB.
The 300 g doughLAB bowl has
a fully jacketed temperature-controlled
water supply. The large capacity water jacket
ensures the most accurate and rapid temperature
response. The bowl also has an integrated
temperature probe at the inlet as well as
a versatile hand-held temperature probe
which can be put directly into the dough
itself, or into the bowl via a port positioned
right down in the centre of the bowl, where
the dough is.
The construction materials
were chosen to give the best combination
of robustness, stain and rust resistance
as well as ease of cleaning, with an especially
hard-wearing stainless steel used for the
mixing blades to increase their longevity.
Hard edges and corners have been removed
for ease of handling and a more user-friendly
look and accessibility to all parts and
quick release water connectors minimise
celaning time.
The safety lid is clear which
allows the operator to see how the dough
is progressing and includes an evaporation
shield, a place to insert a spatula to scrape
down the dough as it starts to mix.
The safety clutch system instantly
stop the blades turning when the lid is
opened, so there is no chance of an accident.
doughMAP blending
simulation software
doughMAP is a customised
Excel spreadsheet that allows you to view,
chart, average and analyse data generated
by doughLAB.
