The oven temperatures were varied from 200" to 250" C. The results obtained from ovens a t temperatures of 240" to 250" C. are typical of those for an oyen too hot to yield the best rewltc. The data listed in Table I are plotted in Figure 1.

These data indicate a rapid rise in temperature a t firat, then a gradual slowing down, and finally a long zone of no temperature change. The runs listed are those used to produce a done loaf. The operator was an experienced baker whose judgment was considered final in regard to the condition of the bread. Shorter baking times gave loads of bread incompletely baked inside. In each case the oven temperatures were too high to produce a good bake. The outside or crust began to burn before the inside of the loaf was conipletely baked. To go t o t h e other extreme, bread w a s b a k e d with oven temperat u r e s of 200" t o 210" C. The same g e n e r a l t y p e of curve w a s n o t e d , but the p i t c h was less steep.

The data in Table 11, shown graphically i n F i g u r e 2, are t y p i c a l of this temperature range. Experiments showed that, when o v e n temperatures of 205" and 210°C.

Table 111, illustrated in Figiirc 3, sliows tlie time-temperature relationships which exist witliin a loaf of bread during baking in a n oven of moderate temperature. These data differ little from those previously given; the general shape of the cnrves is the same, differilig only as to pitch. EXD& nients a g a i n s h o w e d t h a t a m i n i m u m of 0 minutes a t 100" C. was ncceasary to prodnee n d o n e loaf of brcarl. pio s e r i o u s trouble resulted if this time were extended to 12 minutes. Ta.ken as a w h o l e , these d a t a w a r r a n t certain generalizations. In the first place, the oven temperature sfiould be such that a constant temperature of 100" C. c a n b e maintained within thc loaf of bread for 9 to 12 m i n u t e s before the c r u s t is b u r n e d or becomes too hard. Yllorter periods of bakiiig do not yield done loaves of bread. These Pi?"u/e.. finding5 a u g m e n t the FIGURE 3. T~XE-TEMIPEHATURR CURVESFOR B n ~ mBAKEDfly r c s u l t s of previorrs MODERATE OVEN workers who reported maximum temneratures attained. To state only this figure is, a t best, misleading to the layman. It is true that no h i g h temperature need be attained, hut tile iIlside of the loaf of bread must have reached that temperatureat least 9 minutes before the loaf can be declared done. Moreover, the lag in the temperature curve a t this point-in some cases lasting as long as 12 minutes-makes it difficult to picture tho loaf as being in other than a state of equilibrium. Finally, the general experimental results fit in with our known laws of flow of heat. Higher differentialtemperatures increase the rate of heat flow, giving curves of steeper pitch. However, in each case, the temperature relationships indicate a point where some definite endothermic reaction occurs. At this point the magnitude of the differential temperature seems to exert little effect upon the time-temperature relationships within the system.

Co;ucLnsIO.Ys 1. The time-temperature curves for brer rrinc! bi :ing show a fast rise for tile first 10 minutes, a slow rise for-the next 10 minutes, and a practically constant temperature for the last 9 to 12 minutes of the baking cycle. 2. Under the experimental conditions listed, the inside temperature of a loaf of bread during baking does not exceed 100" to 101" c. 3. Under the experimental conditions listed, this temperature must have been maintained for a t least a period of 9 minutes to Droduee a done loaf of bread.
