The DMS-2-18 is an economic dual-heat dough press with versatility in that
it can be used with dual-heat or no heat making it the perfect choice for
all types of products. This manual dough press is ideal for low to medium
production volumes (75-100/hr). It is a fast, safe, simple, mess free (no
flour needed) alternative to hand tossing or sheeting/rolling your pizza
dough. Dough presses are an easy, affordable way to improve your
production time, as well as your finished product. The DMS-2-18 is a swing
away design with dual heated platen.
Dual Heated Platen
Pizza/Tortilla Dough:
Speeds up production (faster pressing times)
Enables pressing thinner products
Aids dough flow
Allows dough to be pressed straight from refrigeration unit
Helps keep dough from shrinking back
Pizza Dough:
Enables pressing thinner products
Aids in pressing sticky dough
Helps activate yeast for faster proofing if desired
Enables par baking pizza crust
Tortilla Dough: Initial grill off for tortillas
Labor & Production
Presses require no skilled labor unlike hand tossing
Presses are safe and have no age requirements unlike sheeters/rollers
18” platen allows for making variable crust sizes and thickness up to 18
inches – the size of the crust is determined by the weight of the dough
ball and the thickness setting.
Depends on the desired size of the crust…9” to 18” = 75-100/hr, 7” to 9”
= 150-200/hr, 6” or under = 300-400/hr
Pressed dough keeps air in the crust vs. sheeted dough where the air is
forced out of the crust. Pressed dough is consistent in thickness and
size vs. hand tossed where the thickness and size can be inconsistent
Makes it possible to achieve desired thickness and ensures consistent
thickness at the same dough ball weight
