This is a recording of a class that originally took place on August 2, 2014. “There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” — William Shakespeare, Hamlet Had Hamlet been a baker, he might have been referring to the remarkable chemistry and physics that transform flour, water, yeast, and salt into bread. In this Guild webinar, Andrew Ross and Lee Glass will explore the scientific processes behind that transformation—phenomena that bakers in Shakespeare’s time could only observe but never fully explain. Andrew and Lee believe that a deeper understanding of bread science empowers bakers to make more informed decisions at every stage of production. By understanding what happens in the mixer, fermentation tub, speed rack, proofer, retarder, and oven, bakers can better guide the conversion of raw ingredients into exceptional bread with greater consistency and control. You will receive access to a private YouTube link. This is an unedited recording of a live webinar originally offered via Zoom.
