Electric Spray Prover

Product Overview

Glead’s Electric Spray Prover (also known as a humidity-controlled proofer) is a cutting-edge solution designed to revolutionize commercial baking operations. This professional dough fermentation equipment creates a precisely regulated environment—combining optimal temperature and humidity—to ensure consistent, high-quality proofing for yeast-based products. Crafted with a stainless steel proofer cabinet and advanced spray mist technology, it eliminates the guesswork from manual proofing, delivering uniform dough rise, improved texture, and enhanced flavor in every batch. Available in three models (GL-18, GL-24, GL-36), the commercial dough proofer caters to small bakeries, large-scale production facilities, and everything in between. Its precision proofing cabinet features digital controls for temperature (15–38°C) and humidity, while the insulated construction minimizes energy consumption. Whether proofing bread, pizza dough, croissants, or bagels, Glead’s Electric Spray Prover boosts efficiency, reduces waste, and elevates the overall quality of baked goods—making it an indispensable tool for modern bakeries.

Technical Specifications

Application Scenarios

Artisan & Commercial Bakeries

Artisan bakeries rely on the Electric Spray Prover to achieve consistent fermentation for sourdough, baguettes, and artisanal loaves. The precise humidity control prevents dough surface drying, ensuring a thin, crisp crust and even crumb structure. For large commercial bakeries, the proofer’s high capacity (up to 36 trays) handles high-volume production, shortening proofing times and increasing output.

Pizzerias & Bagel Shops

Pizza dough requires specific fermentation conditions to develop flavor and elasticity. The humidity-controlled proofer maintains ideal moisture levels, resulting in light, chewy pizza crusts. Similarly, bagel shops use the proofer to prepare dough before boiling and baking, ensuring consistent size and texture across batches.

Patisseries & Dessert Studios

Laminated doughs (e.g., croissants, danishes) and enriched doughs (e.g., brioche) demand precise temperature and humidity control to preserve their delicate structure. The stainless steel proofer provides a stable environment, preventing butter melting and ensuring proper rise—critical for flaky, tender pastries.

Hotel & Restaurant Kitchens

In-house bakeries at hotels and restaurants use the commercial dough proofer to prepare fresh bread, rolls, and pastries for guests. Its compact design fits into busy kitchen spaces, while the automated operation frees staff to focus on other tasks.

Supermarket In-Store Bakeries

Supermarket bakeries benefit from the proofer’s versatility, handling multiple dough types (from sandwich bread to specialty pastries) throughout the day. The programmable settings allow staff to save custom recipes, ensuring consistent results even during peak hours.

Competitive Advantages

Precision Temperature & Humidity Control

The Electric Spray Prover features a digital thermostat (±1°C accuracy) and humidistat (60–95% RH range), allowing precise adjustment for different dough types. The ultrasonic spray mist system delivers fine, uniform moisture, eliminating over-proofing, under-proofing, and surface drying.

Durable & Hygienic Construction

Built with food-grade stainless steel (interior and exterior), the proofer is easy to clean and sanitize—complying with NSF/UL hygiene standards. The smooth surfaces resist mold, mildew, and food residue, ensuring a safe baking environment.

Energy-Efficient & Cost-Saving

The insulated cabinet minimizes heat loss, reducing energy consumption by up to 30% compared to uninsulated models. The automated operation cuts labor costs, as staff no longer need to monitor or manually spray dough.

Versatile Capacity & Customizable Settings

With models ranging from 18 to 36 trays, the proofer adapts to small and large operations. Advanced models offer programmable recipes, delay start, and data logging, allowing bakeries to replicate successful fermentation cycles and track performance.

Enhanced Safety Features

Equipped with overheat protection, low water cut-off, and child-safe locks, the proofer prioritizes workplace safety. The double-glazed glass door prevents heat loss while allowing visibility, reducing the need to open the cabinet and disrupt the fermentation environment.

FAQ

What is the temperature and humidity range of the Electric Spray Prover?

The proofer temperature ranges from 15–38°C (ideal for fermentation), while the refrigeration function cools to 2–5°C for cold fermentation. Humidity is adjustable from 60–95% RH to suit different dough requirements.

Do I need filtered water for the spray system?

Yes, we recommend using softened or filtered water to prevent mineral buildup in the spray nozzles and water tank. Regular descaling (every 1–2 months) will extend the system’s lifespan.

Can the proofer handle different types of dough?

Absolutely! The precision proofing cabinet is designed for yeast-based doughs, including bread, pizza, croissants, bagels, and danishes. Programmable settings allow customization for delicate or hearty doughs.

How often should I clean the proofer?

We recommend weekly cleaning of the interior, shelves, and water tank to prevent mold and mildew. The spray nozzles should be cleaned monthly to ensure unobstructed misting.

Does the proofer have a retarding function for cold fermentation?

Yes, all models include a refrigeration function (2–5°C) for cold fermentation (retarding), which enhances flavor development in sourdough and artisanal breads. Advanced models offer programmable retarding cycles.
