Core Temperature; Shut Down; Incrustation; Steam Exhaust - IBT STIR Manual

3.11 Core temperature

The early achievement of the core temperature and thus the finishing of the first baking
phase with starch agglutination and formation of the crumb is the core of baking with STIR
With optimal dampness (dough, surface) and heater temperature, this phase can be
achieved 2- to 4-times quicker in comparison to conventional baking. As soon as the surface
is well browned, the bakery good is well baked through.

3.12 Shut down

The heater temperature should only be decreased again in continuation of the baking
process, if the required core temperature TK of 97°C has been achieved or will be achieved
shortly.
The early shut down will stop the quick increasing. The heater will become a "cooling
absorber" – the STIR
recommended.

3.13 Incrustation

This second baking phase is less the matter of STIR
baking with warm and rather dry air in the oven chamber. Thick crumbs require a longer
time for this baking phase as well as less dampness and sufficient high air temperatures.
Regarding the last point, the temperature can be increased again briefly in the end.

3.14 Steam exhaust

Immediately after formation of the crumb, the steam must be thoroughly exhausted! This
benefits the formation of a strong crumb.

3.15 Finishing baking

Removal of the products from the oven. In the period of time reduction in the first phase the

baking with STIR can be finished earlier in comparison to classic baking.
Faster baking requires more frequent controlling.
