Dough Storage Box White Polypropylene (PP) 600x400x130mm | TurcoBazaar JWDB604013

Q: What dough weight does the 26 kg capacity rating represent?

A: 26 kg rating assumes standard wheat dough at 65% hydration after first rise. High-hydration doughs at 75-80% water content reduce usable depth to 100mm to prevent overflow during fermentation. Stiff bagel dough or laminated butter blocks fill the full 130mm depth.

Q: Does polypropylene affect sourdough fermentation rates?

A: PP material is chemically inert and does not inhibit lactobacilli activity. Temperature transfer rate through 3mm walls matches stainless steel containers during refrigerated retardation. Dough develops identical crust formation and acid profiles.

Q: How many boxes stack on a standard 600×400mm rack trolley?

A: Twelve 130mm boxes stack to 1560mm height on Euro-standard mobile racks. Stacking without lids reduces height by 40mm versus lidded configurations. Load capacity depends on trolley rating — typically 250 kg total across all shelves.

Q: Can boxes transfer directly from -18°C freezer to +30°C proofing cabinet?

A: PP withstands thermal shock across 110°C range without brittleness. Frozen dough blocks require 20-minute ambient rest before proofing to prevent surface condensation. Boxes show no cracking after 2000+ freeze-thaw cycles in commercial testing.

Q: What cleaning protocol removes baked-on flour residue?

A: Commercial dishwashers at 65°C with alkaline detergent remove standard flour deposits. Stubborn dried sourdough requires 10-minute soak in 2% caustic solution before machine washing. Boxes tolerate chlorine sanitisers at 200 ppm concentration.
