How should I clean the Dough Moulder?
Please make sure to do the Basic Cleaning of the machine daily.
Make sure the machine is unplugged and turned off before any cleaning is done.
- Wipe down all outside surfaces thoroughly with a damp cloth. If necessary use a mild soap/warm water solution and then rinse with a mild soda/vinegar solution. Rinse thoroughly with a damp cloth.
- Do NOT use harsh chemicals. Only use baking soda or vinegar on conveyer belts, or else you may cause damage or discoloration.
- Never use harsh chemicals such as bleach or ammonia to clean or wipe the surfaces, oftentimes a damp cloth is enough to keep everything clean. When necessary, use a recognized food-safe cleaner to clean the food contact surfaces, or a mild soap/water solution.
- You may need to sometimes clean underneath the machine and vacuum any flour or dough residue trapped under the working surfaces.
- In order to remove all remaining pieces of dough from the conveyer belt after daily use, lightly use a plastic scraper or a very soft bristle brush while the machine in is operation. Do not place too much pressure on the conveyer belt, as this could cause damage
Please make sure to do a Deep Cleaning at least monthly.
Make sure the machine is unplugged and turned off before any cleaning is done.
- In order to properly clean the rollers and the inside of the machine, you do NOT need to remove the top and back panels from the machine. The rollers can be cleaned by reaching underneath the rollers and using a damp cloth or a soft bristle brush.
- Adjust rollers to the widest spacing to allow thorough cleaning with a soft bristle brush or damp cloth.
- If any large pieces of dough remain on the rollers, use a plastic scraper to ensure that all dough is removed.
- Vacuum out any dirt, flour, or dough that may have collected in the rear housing.
