[0002] Fermentation refers to the process by which people use the life activities of microorganisms under aerobic or anaerobic conditions to prepare the microbial cells themselves, or their direct or secondary metabolites. The working principle of a fermentation cabinet is to use electric heating tubes to heat and evaporate the water in the tank, thereby creating a certain temperature and humidity environment inside the cabinet, so that the dough can ferment and expand fully. This design is not only suitable for bread fermentation, but can also be used for the production of other foods that require specific temperature and humidity conditions.
[0003] When the fermentation cabinet is in use, food is placed inside for fermentation. If left inside for a long time, the inside will be filled with the smell of the food. If this is not dealt with, it can easily contaminate the next batch of food.
