Product Description

Brod & Taylor Folding Proofer, Great Bread Starts Here
Brod & Taylor Folding Proofer, Great Bread Starts Here
One appliance. Endless uses.

I have been making bread for years. Do I need a Proofer?

Home bakers are often disadvantaged because they lack a well-controlled fermenting and proofing environment. The Proofer allows you to create the best texture and taste in homemade bread with repeatable and consistent results.

Should I cover my bread dough?

Most dough and shaped loaves do not need to be covered while in the Proofer because the water tray will provide ideal humidity to keep the dough from forming a skin. All recipes on the Brod & Taylor website are developed for uncovered dough.

What is the difference between fermenting and proofing?

Fermenting is where the flavors are created and takes much longer than the proofing stage, it begins when yeast (instant or natural air-borne) is introduced to flour and water. Proofing is the final gas production that aerates the dough.

Why isn’t the air temperature inside my Proofer the same as the setting?

The Proofer is calibrated to keep the contents of a jar or bowl at the designated temperature setting, not the air inside. Measuring the air temperature in the proofer with a thermometer will not indicate the temperature of food in a container.

Does the Proofer have a thermostat?

Yes, there is a thermostat located in the base. The heating element cycles on and off according to the temperature of the aluminum plate. This cycling on and off makes the Proofer very accurate and reliable at maintaining steady temperatures.

Game changer!
Wow! I have been making sourdough for months now with a frustrating fluctuation of temperatures in my house and then I tried this! I placed my starter in here, set the temperature and bam! It was done in no time. Then I formed my loaves and they never felt better! I am so excited for this new edition! It is worth the money!

I used the Brod & Taylor as Proofer and I like that it can also create humidity so that there is no need to cover when using water tray. I also like that it can be folded back up and placed back in box and then can go back on shelf when not in use.

5.0 out of 5 stars My new favourite toy in the kitchen!!
Reviewed in Canada on July 7, 2019
I love this folding proofer. Our house is typically cool, maybe too cool... and it was hard to keep my dough at an even temperature to proof. I used to put a towel under the bowl, then around the sides and over the top. No fun.. you couldn't peak at it!! This works perfectly, AND.... I made the most delicious bbq in it using it as a slow cooker. I use cast iron dutch ovens, and love that you can put it right in the proofer and make anything you normally would make in your dutch oven!! I lack counter space, so love that it folds up. It's sleek looking and I'm very impressed all round with this product. I would highly recommend. It was shipped very fast and packaged well. I ordered the second rack with it and have used that to proof 2 pans of buns. Awesome addition to my cooking tools.
