  • Patent number: 11758910
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for distributing a food fluid in a bakery, including the circulation of food fluid from a cold room to at least one metering point, in supply piping arranged between the cold room and the metering point, the cold room being remote from the metering point. The supply piping includes two piping segments and a set of one or more valves, arranged in such a way that: for a first configuration of the set of one or more valves, the two piping segments supply food fluid, in parallel and simultaneously, to the metering point from at least one tank of food fluid located in the cold room, and for at least one other configuration of the set of one or more valves, the two piping segments form a fluid circulation loop.

  • Patent number: 10375967
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for dispensing liquid yeast in a bakery, including: an inner panel (2) of a refrigerated chamber (6) onto which an inner circuit (20) for the flow of liquid yeast is pre-mounted, wherein said inner circuit is intended to be connected to a liquid yeast vessel (4) and includes a pumping unit (21); an outer panel (1) of a refrigerated chamber (6) onto which a liquid yeast metering device (16) and a metering table (10) are pre-mounted, wherein said metering table is intended to receive a vessel (3) to be filled with an amount of liquid yeast metered by said liquid yeast metering device (16). Said inner panel (2) and said outer panel (1) are structured such as to be attached sandwiched onto the wall (5) of a refrigerated chamber (6) for containing said vessel (4). Said liquid yeast metering device (16) is intended to be connected, through a wall (5) of the refrigerated chamber (6), to said inner circuit (20).
