Brod & Taylor Folding Proofer and Slow Cooker Expands Boundaries
of Versatility
Williamstown, MA. January 20, 2016. Breaking the boundaries of traditional kitchen appliance categories,
innovative kitchen-crafters are discovering that the Brød & Taylor Folding Proofer and Slow Cooker is a
multi-tasking kitchen workhorse. Beyond its core function - bread rising - the Proofer is perfect for culturing
yogurt and butter, ripening soft cheese and fermenting healthy probiotic foods such as kombucha, kefir
and tempeh. Melting and tempering chocolate is foolproof. Slow cooker recipes are a breeze using a
covered stock pot or Dutch oven placed in the Proofer, with reliable results. The Folding Proofer remains
the only counter-top appliance that folds in seconds for easy storage.
Providing a wide range of temperature settings, this multi-functional kitchen appliance opens up endless
culturing and cooking possibilities. Degree-by-degree temperature settings (F or C) and optional humidity
control provide reliable and predictable results. Health conscious customers love controlling the
ingredients in their foods, and saving money by making them at home. Energy efficient, silent, and space-
saving, the Folding Proofer can operate on less than 2 cents an hour of electricity; a win-win for families
eager to decrease expenses without sacrificing quality of food.
One Brod & Taylor Folding Proofer can take the place of multiple single use appliances such as slow
cookers, yogurt makers, make-shift proofers, chocolate tempering machines, plate warmers, and warming
ovens. Additionally, you don't need any special equipment to use the Folding Proofer. Use and re-use
your existing kitchenware and eliminate disposables. The Folding Proofer has set new boundaries for
versatility.
Bread
Whether baking sourdough, gluten free, whole grain, or traditional recipes – the home kitchen can now
perform at professional standards. A consistent low-temperature humidity controlled proofing environment
is available at the touch of a button. Fermenting overnight starters or rising bread loaves is hassle free.
A slow controlled rise in the Proofer creates outstanding flavor and can be timed to fit any schedule.
Essential for sourdough, the Proofer encourages a full rise without danger of heat damage to delicate wild
yeasts. It provides a full rise for croissants, pastries and other rich dough without risk of melting the butter.
Create pizza crusts as delicious as the toppings you select.
The Brod & Taylor Folding Proofer is a recommended product in the latest edition of The Bread Bible, by
Rose Levy Beranbaum.
Yogurt
The Folding Proofer with degree-by-degree temperature control excels as a yogurt maker. It avoids the
factory pre-sets of traditional yogurt makers that often overheat the culture. Make up to 2 gallons, or as
little as one jar using standard glass containers. Our unique "High-Low" temperature method works in just 4
hours producing food-safe, thick yogurt with creamier texture that has earned wonderful reviews. Use the
temperature control to make Greek-style, goat's milk, lactose-free, and dairy-free yogurt.
