greetings all bready people:)

I need to know if anyone knows of somewhere in NZ that sells the above items...

I have found and used one place in CHristchurch, NZ before but would prefer elsewhere if possible...

Or if anyone can recommend a european or US store that does not charge the whole national debt of NZ as postage:)

Husband has just bought me one of these as a surprise. It has a dough hook.

I've been making bread by hand for years, but I must use the machine or he'll be mortally offended.

Is there anyone who uses this machine, and can give me quantities of ingredients for a basic loaf, using yeast, and any other tips.

In my handmade recipe I never measure ingredients, so am at a bit of a loss.

From what I've read it's best to start with just 1kg of flour.

Hobart N50 KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker Attachment Compatability

June 4, 2013 - 1:30pm -- les_garten

I know this is a baking forum, but thought this wouldn't be too far off topic.  It is after all about "cooking" up some Ice Cream!

I have a Hobart N50 and decided to try out the KitchenAid KICA0WH Icream Maker attachmet to see if it would work.  It fits so far.   I'm freezing the bowl now and will try to make some Ice Cream over the next couple days and shoot another Video about how that works out.

Where to Buy Brotform/Banneton

June 3, 2013 - 3:32pm -- sarakaun

Could someone please recommend a place to buy a brotform? I've seen them on Amazon, but I'm not sure about the quality of the ones sold there and also the pricing.

Hoping one of you savvy homebakers can point me in the direction of a bakery supply store that sells great quality products at decent prices. I've snagged so many deals buying in bulk at webstaurantstore, but they don't carry these.

 

Thanks!

Ideas for a cover while baking?

June 3, 2013 - 6:32am -- 3birdsbaking

Does anyone know of a product out there besides aluminum foil to cover bread after 10 minutes of baking to keep it from burning at the edges.  I bake for a farmers market and after 10 minutes I have to cover and double pan to prevent from burning.  It is one of my most popular loaves and I hate wasting so much foil!  I do reuse, but there is only so much life to get out of them.
