. There are actually 2 primary differences between bagels and doughnuts. Bagels are boiled while doughnuts are fried. The dough is also prepared a bit differently; obviously the dough that is used to make doughnuts is much sweeter than the dough that is used to create bagels.
Making the dough is done similar in both cases, the dough is prepared than is left to rise. Every process requires the utilization of special risers, these risers are basically built like stand up ovens that only reach a specific temperature and keep the environment moist so that the dough is encouraged to rise.
Another important part of the process is that the dough is rolled out and cut into shape. The bagel dough is left a bit thicker than the doughnut dough. Bagel equipment is set to make sure that the dough isn't flattened as much. There's also far more air that is left is bagel dough.
The air sometimes is added using an aerator to speed up the process of creating the dough.
There's a massive device that is used to cut the bagels out of large sheets of bagel dough. This is used to guarantee uniformity so when the bagels are finished they all look just about identical.
Bagel equipment ensures that all of the bagels are in perfect condition to be presented to the world.
Bagels are ordinarily boiled and than baked just enough to get that familiar brown color. The bagels are cooked in huge vats of boiling water only for a few minutes, than they are immediately transferred to the ovens where they remain until they are golden brown.
The bagels have to be cooled, so large cooling racks are used to cool the bagels. These racks generally have rows and rows of racks with bagel shaped forms to hold the bagels as they cool so that they don't loose their shape while they're cooling.
After the bagels have cooled they're transferred to other racks to hold them either for sale or they're packaged for sale.
Bagel equipment is used in commercial establishments from beginning to end of the process. This equipment is heavily relied upon to create the perfect bagel, without the right equipment it would be extremely difficult to create bagels for sale.
