Baking is a vital process, and Baker Perkins’ comprehensive oven range allows each specification to exactly match the end product. Either a Direct Gas Fired (DGF) Oven or Jetcirc Oven can be chosen for hard sweet biscuit baking. The Baker Perkins DGF Oven is modular, offering great flexibility in baking characteristics. The Jetcirc Oven makes major savings for biscuit makers in bake time, capital cost and energy. It also provides significant quality, consistency and reliability benefits by creating a dependable and stable airflow within the chamber.

Many of today’s hard sweet biscuit systems use a hybrid oven. This features a DGF element at the start when the process is critical, and radiant heat without turbulence is preferred. The DGF module is followed by a Jetcirc section.
