The successful cooling system for tightly stacked proofing trays. The COOLPROOFER allows fully automated proofing and cooling processes, even with closely stacked plastic trays. Present your customers with consistently long-fermented small wheat pastries with unmatched flavour, lasting crispness, and lively crust. The clever tray conditioning system takes advantage of all the benefits of an automatic dough conditioner and removes excess moisture with the ITRAY dehumidification function. A positive/negative pressure system ensures that the cooling phase, as well as the subsequent conditioning, fermentation and counter-cooling phases, is carried out absolutely uniformly with air gently moving through the side openings of the plastic trays. The result is crispy rolls with flavour, shine, scoring, a short bite, and long-lasting freshness.
The SOFTSTEAM evaporative humidification keeps the water just above room temperature, minimizing the temperature difference with the dough pieces. The evaporation tank is gently heated, resulting in natural evaporation over a large surface area. This technology preserves baked goods and is highly energy-efficient. The balanced moisture balance ensures optimal dough quality, with no moisture deposits or puddles. The SOFTSTEAM humidification system is also maintenance-free.
Bread and cakes made from traditional master recipes – with long dough preparation for long-lasting satisfaction.

Mastering the Art of Sliced Rolls – Cooling and Conditioning with Plastic Boards
In 1959, Hans and Brigitta Bolten founded the renowned company, which is now being run by the Bolten family in its second generation, with over 40 branches. An air-conditioned bread roll production facility is the centrepiece of the business expansion.
SLOWPROOFING – FLAVOR THAT COMES FROM THE COLD. A DECISION I WOULD NEVER CHANGE
Based on traditional dough handling methods, the new refrigeration technology was to be precisely controlled, especially for processes in the positive temperature range. Soetebier produces today at the most cutting-edge and energy-efficient level, while combining it with their in-house craftsmanship.
Preserving Tradition and Progress with ICECOOL
Preserving and advancing the craft and modern culinary culture are paramount. Elaborate recipes are executed using natural ingredients from the region.
The combination of high-tech, combined with traditional craftsmanship, is fascinating to me.
The SOFTSTEAM humidification system resembles a natural phenomenon: gentle natural mist settling on a sunny autumn morning over the lake. The ISAVE energy concept was another crucial point – high energy savings and thus a reduction in carbon emissions.
Tender, delicious sliced rolls with a glossy finish and a lot of flavour – baked goods for the Champions League.
Exactly what Jürgen Hinkelmann had envisioned: No more pushing around of racks, no more sources of error in the rapid cooling processes. A secure cooling process where evenly baked and ready-to-bake dough pieces are delivered to over 50 branches.
