We saw this thing operating at the large bakery at Fisherman's Wharf in
S.F. a while ago.
The worker loaded in a batch of dough, tossed in a little flour, closed
the lid, and "pppfffft", out came a few puffs of flour dust around the
edges. He opened it up to reveal nice poofed-up sections of dough
which he then proceeded to remove, separate, and shape into bread
bowls.
Seems a little big for the kitchen but handy nonetheless. Is this
maybe known as a scaler perhaps?
