Production:
• 18" platen allows for making
variable crust sizes and thickness
up to 18 inches – the size of the
crust is determined by the weight
of the dough ball and the thick-
ness setting.
• depends on the desired size of
the crust...9" to 18" = 75-100/hr,
7" to 9" = 150-200/hr,
6" or under = 300-400/hr
Finished Product:
• pressed dough keeps air in
the crust vs. sheeted dough
where the air is forced out of
the crust. Pressed dough is
consistent in thickness and
size vs. hand tossed where
the thickness and size can be
inconsistent
