Robinson and Lee's Patent Bread-Making Machine, 1850. Diagram of '...a Bread-Machine recently erected in Glasgow...One ton and a half of loaf bread, or a ton of biscuit, is produced by this invention hourly, without the intervention of human labour in any stage...By a very simple but ingenious process, the liquid and flour are made to fall together...upon a cone (A), which partially mixes and conveys them into the kneading-trough (B), whence the dough is forced out at an aperture (C), and cut off by an eccentric knife (D) in the precise quantities wished. Falling upon a roller (E), these pieces are carried by the same machinery through a moulding-tube (F), and thence into the oven...where the steam by which the whole concern has been kept moving is, after passing through a red-hot coiled pipe in the furnace...applied in direct contact with tlie batch, and produces a very pure crust'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
