Description

Maintaining quality control (https://bakerpedia.com/processes/quality-control-for-baking-ingredients/) and product standards is an essential part of the baking process. Modern bakeries require accuracy, reliability, and streamlined operations to optimize output and ensure consistent results that meet consumer demands. Luckily, there are tools and equipment (https://bakerpedia.com/how-to-improve-dough-quality-using-the-mixolab/) available to make these tasks more manageable, all the while championing objectivity and repeatability.

KPM Analytics (https://bakerpedia.com/kpm-analytics/) supplies instruments that measure critical quality parameters of incoming ingredients, analyze products during the baking process, and ensure final product quality.
