Anvil Proving Cabinet

The Anvil POA0001 is a proving cabinet holding 9 x 600 x 400 mm baking trays or 9 x GN1/1 trays, giving a humidity-controlled environment for faster proving. It draws 750 W from a standard 10 A outlet and is designed to be used with Anvil convection ovens.

Why operators choose the ICE-POA0001

• Humidity control is the whole point — dough proved in dry air forms a skin, and a skinned dough tears instead of springing in the oven. A controlled humid environment is what a prover adds over simply leaving trays somewhere warm
• 9 x 600 x 400 mm trays, or 9 x GN1/1 — it takes both the bakery tray standard and the gastronorm standard, so it fits whichever your kitchen already runs
• Designed to pair with Anvil convection ovens — the range is built around the two working together - confirm the specific oven model with us before ordering as a matched pair
• 750 W on a standard 10 A outlet — about 3 A. No electrical work, and it can share a circuit
• 860 mm wide, 995 mm tall — a bench-height footprint rather than a full-height cabinet

Specifications

Venue suitability

This prover suits bakeries, cafes and kitchens baking bread, buns or pastry in volume and wanting a controlled prove rather than a warm corner. Nine trays is a genuine production run, and at 860 mm wide and 995 mm tall it sits under a bench or beneath a matched convection oven.

Installation & delivery

Standard 10 A plug-in at 750 W — about 3 A, so no electrical work and it can share a circuit. Dimensions are recorded width x height x depth: 860 mm wide, 995 mm tall, 591 mm deep. If you are pairing it with a convection oven as a stacked set, confirm the oven model with us first — our data records that it is designed for Anvil convection ovens but does not name which models, and the footprints need to match. Our data records no weight, and no temperature or humidity range, for this cabinet.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What does a proving cabinet do that a warm room does not?

It controls humidity as well as warmth. Dough left to prove in dry air forms a skin on the surface, and a skinned dough tears rather than springing when it hits the oven. A prover holds moisture in the air so the surface stays supple. Our data describes this cabinet as humidity controlled but does not record the temperature or humidity range it holds - ask us and we will confirm the figures with the supplier.

Q: How many trays does it hold?

Nine - either 600 x 400 mm baking trays or GN1/1 gastronorm trays. Taking both standards is useful, because it means the prover fits whichever tray system your kitchen already uses rather than forcing a second set.

Q: Which oven does it go with?

Our data records that it is designed for use with Anvil convection ovens, but it does not name specific models. Since a prover and oven are usually bought as a stacked pair and the footprints need to match, tell us which oven you have or are considering and we will confirm the pairing before you order.

Q: What electrical supply does it need?

A standard 10 amp outlet. At 750 W it draws about 3 amps, so no electrical work is required and it will share a circuit comfortably.

Q: What temperature does it hold?

Our records do not state a temperature or humidity range for this model. Rather than estimate it, we would rather tell you the figure is not recorded - contact us and we will get it confirmed by the supplier.
