Much is known about the need for an ice machine in bars and restaurants, but what few people realize is that this element is also essential for other establishments and services, such as baking.

Yes, that's exactly what you read: the use of ice is essential for bread production. We will explain why: During baking, the temperature of the dough can vary, which should be avoided. When placed in the mixer, the rotational speed of the equipment can cause the dough to be heated, a situation that could cause the breakdown of the gluten, resulting in undesirable characteristics in the product, such as the lack of bread rise. And that's where the ice comes in: it is the ingredient responsible for cooling the dough and controlling the temperature, which ensures that the correct fermentation time is preserved and results in a bread that is soft on the inside and crispy on the outside, the way Brazilians like it.

It is worth remembering that, to be efficient in the baking process, the ice must be made with potable water, produced and stored in a machine with adequate temperature, in addition to being kept away from things that could contaminate it. This is where the Impomac machines come into play. Properly prepared to produce and keep ice well cooled, away from any dirt, the ice makers guarantee the hygiene and efficiency necessary for baking.
