How to Spot Energy Wasters in Baking
Highly informative new tool added to the MIWE smart baking suite

At the end of 2022, MIWE equipped this useful tool with another brand-new feature: The sbs:energiemonitor for networked baking stations. Such an energy monitor is a welcome addition in times of scarce and increasingly costly energy on the market.
It not only summarises the actual energy consumption of an oven, but also breaks it down in detail according to different operating states (such as baking, heating/cooling, ready-to-bake, Eco mode, etc.). All this is clearly displayed graphically and numerically across various panels on a dashboard. You can choose between displaying the data as a timeline, as kilowatt hours or directly as incurred costs if your current kW price is stored in the MIWE sbs. This lets you see exactly how long the baking station baked for, how long it ran at a lower standby temperature in MIWE Eco mode, how long it took to heat up or how long it was (and remained) ready to bake.
You are also shown the products or baking programs associated with these baking times. And finally, you know how much energy has been consumed for each of these – and what it has cost you in detail.
Comparison function makes savings visible
This display, which also includes useful comparisons (e. g. over the days of the week, over the last eight weeks or across different products or baking programs), rapidly shows when and where energy was actually consumed beneficially and where it was not. What’s more, the tool evaluates the impact of block times for preventing baking at certain times of the day.

With the "baking efficiency" evaluation, the colour coding makes it clear at a glance where there is potential for savings.

So, when it comes to ensuring optimal energy consumption of ovens in shops and outlets nowadays, this is the ideal tool for making fact-based adjustments.
