Another one bites the dust

First I wore out a KA 6qt mixer.  Now I've about killed a Bosch Universal Plus.  Believe it or not, it was not heavy dough that did it in this time.  It was a smoothie.  I should have learned long ago that multi-purpose machines do plenty but most of it poorly.

After adding the blender attachment and enjoying several smoothies, the blender decided to let one drain into the machine.  Nice.  Now the BUP sounds like a saw.  I do not know if it can be salvaged.

versatile heavy duty mixer

My KA Professional line broke again. Those mixers don't last long. I am looking for a mixer that is versatile (egg whites, cookies, quick bread, frosting, and at lot of bread) that can take the load of bread I make. I usually make at least 5 pounds of dough ( about f 4 loaves) at a time. Any recommendations on what I can use that can last me longer than the KA, I am willing to pay up to $900. Thank you!!

New Kitchen Range / Stove

Howdy Folks,

I am in the market for a new kitchen range / stove.  I have a budget of about $4000.00  but I only have space for a 30in range.  I'd like to get a Dual Fuel, convection set up and it needs to be white.  Any recommendations?  We've been replacing out appliances for the last year and the last one in the range.  We currently have a glass top electric range but I had a gas line installed knowing that we'd need to replace the to range eventually and I wanted to be ready.  I'd consider one of the double ovens if it was high quality.  Any help is appreciated.

Hi everyone,

Dado and I released a FREE trial version of BreadStorm for Mac. It's downloadable from our website (http://www.breadstorm.com/), where you can also find the fun tutorial we put together with MC on "How to BreadStorm."

Please have a look! Especially if you like to bake using pre-ferments, soakers, and builds (like us :-).
