Sourdough Machine
To stand out from the competition in the baking world, it is important to produce consistent and excellent products that bring satisfaction to customers every day. In regards to current consumer demand for healthier breads, sourdough is the perfect answer. That is why VMI has designed a machine to “cultivate” ferments.
Our sourdough machine mixes, matures, and stores both sourdough and poolish. With its automated cycle management, the VMI fermenter frees you from all the constraints of daily sourdough production.
