Corn flakes can be baked by infrared or microwave oven, with moisture content of semi-finished product being 12%. With infrared bake, feat baking temperature is 280℃ and feat baking time is 8 mins. With microwave bake, feat strength is 720 W, feat roasting time is 9 mins. The product quantity is better with the microwave oven.
