If you ar for tunate enough to have the opportun ity It will be well worth your time to follow, one operation after another, the making of a loaf of the bread of which Mr. Fluhrer la ao proud and for whose perfect production he hue built this beautiful bakery. Large iiefrlierator In the flrat plaoe you will be aur prleed at the size of the electric re frigerator In which : kept yeaet, milk, shortening and other ingredients used " In the bread. The flour, about two and 114 ton a day, Is placed on the olectrle elevator at the back of the building and taken to the large con crete basement for storage. Each day's flour la taken from this store and car ried up stairs to the miking room. Tlw flour I first placed In the blend er; from the blender which 1 elec trically driven, an electric hoist carries It to the sifter where the flour Is elec trloally sifted Into the automatlo mix er. An electrloally operated scales au tomatically welgha the flour as It goes Into the mixer and when exactly the correct amount has been sifted In ehuts It off. Electricity sgaln playa an Important part In operating the water Injector whioh Introducea exactly the correct amount of water Into the mix er. The mlxor la electrloally operated, of course, and after the mixer has completed Its work of mixing the flour, milk, yeast, shortening, salt, eto., thoroughly the dough la removed and allowed to go through the fer mentation period in the mixing room at a temperature of 84 degrees. Regulated niimlrlor After fermentation the dough goes to the divider, then the rounder which shapes the loaf, then an electrlo con veyor lifts It up to the overhead prooter where the doufrti goes through a. short period of fermentation again. Prom the proofer It goes to the mold er where the loaf Is molded for the pans. The loaves In the pans are placed in the proof box for 30 min utes. An electrlo humidifier keeps ex actly the correct amount of moisture In tine proof box during this period and the temperature la automatically kept exactly right electrloally. From the proof box the dough goes directly to the mammoth automatlo electrlo ovena. The baking bread revolves con stantly within the oven o that every part of the loaf Is baked exactly even. It is certainly an exceptional Bight to see the hundreds of loaves come out of those ovens, all exactly the same, even, rich, golden brown color and unless you are different from 8 out of every 1O0 people, the delicious odor of those hundreds of freshly baked loaves Just from the oven, will eeem a most delightful perfume. From the ovens ths breed goes Into the cooling tunnels so that the cool ing process will be regulated exactly right to preserve the finest loaf It Is possible for human Ingenuity to make. This cooling process Is also controlled electrically, of course, to eohlev the necessary accuracy. After the bread has been properly cooled It la ready for the slicing and wrapping machines. It is no longor sufficient to wrap the bread but It Is also necessary to slice It as 8 sliced loaves are sold to ovory one unsllced loaf. The slicing and wrapping machine Is oapeble of a00 loaves sliced and wrapped per hour. The slices are perfeotly even and the wrappers are ell atralght. Much straights In fact than could be done by hand. 100 Electrlo Every tingle machine operation In this modern plant for the efficient baking of perfect bread Is electric. More than 300 kilowatts of electrical equipment Is connected which means that If everything In the plant was operating at one time 200 kilowatts of electricity would be used every hour. The epotless cleanliness whioh Mr. Tluhrer demands In every cubic Inch of ahU plant la greatly almpllfled through thl 100 per cent rise of elec tricity. Electricity eliminates the ne oeeelty for wood or ooal, does away with emoke and soot in the building, and permits no dust or dirt from ash es to enter the plant. The new Fluh rer bakery la Indeed aomethlng every Individual In Medford can be proud of and Mr. Fluhrer appears to have actually reached hla ambition to make every operation In the handling and baking of Fluhrer1!
