  • following food safety procedures
  • ensuring correct batter is supplied and confirming settings, including:
  • wafer plates are selected for product type
  • oven settings for product type
  • web/chain speed settings
  • depositing rate settings
  • monitoring and adjusting process equipment to achieve required outcomes, including monitoring control points and conducting inspections as required to confirm process remains within specification, including:
  • wafer size (width, length and thickness)
  • wafer texture, colour and weight
  • wafer moisture level
  • taking corrective action in response to typical faults and inconsistencies.

Knowledge Evidence

An individual must be able to demonstrate the knowledge required to perform the tasks outlined in the elements and performance criteria of this unit. This includes knowledge of:

  • purpose and basic principles of each stage of the wafer manufacturing process
