The Doubot smart dough fermentation kit has been developed by Smokpub as a solution for novice or time-poor bakers seeking to make their baking endeavors a little easier and more foolproof. The system works with a total of five built-in sensors that will track the ambient temperature, rice percentage, dough surface temperature, CO₂ levels and humidity to know exactly when dough is ready to be baked. This works alongside the modular smart fermentation lid that will track sourdough starter to know when it is ready for use or when it needs to be fed.
The Doubot smart dough fermentation kit also features a heating function to keep enough at the optimal temperature to maximize results. The system comes on the heels of the pandemic-fueled baking surge and would help to change perceptions of the pastime for consumers of all ages.
