Kitchen Aid Classic Plus for making Bread?
I have been using my little Kitchen Aid 4.5 qt classic plus to make our daily use white yeast bread. It seems to drag a bit during the kneading which makes me think that it will burn up 1) if I keep using it this way 2)if I use it even more than I do now for breads and 3) if I dare use it for a slightly heavier dough.
Low hydration dough on the Electrolux Assistan Original
We just got the Electrolux Assistant Original and I've already started using it for some standard breads and it works great. However I'm having a little trouble with low hydration dough's for bagels.
I'm not using large mases of flour (around 900g only) so using the dough hook doesn't seem to be appropriate. However when trying to add more flour when the dough starts to pull away from the side seems to just cause it to mass up and cause it to not mix/knead properly. Is there a trick to adding more flour to an already dry dough?
Pizza Ovens
Does anyone have experience baking hearth bread in a pizza oven? They are not as expensive as used bread ovens, have a good temp range and a large deck . They also can be converted to lpg. Any thoughts would be welcomed.I am looking to expand a home baking business, my mixer and oven need to change so I can make more bread. Thanks
Reco Mixer Information?
I have the opportunity to aquire a "Reco" (Reynolds Electric Co.) mixer. It is a 22 Qt. (Model #422b). Problem is, I cannot seem to find any information on this mixer or the company that made it. Does anyone here have any knowledge of this brand?
Thanks in advance
The folding dough proofer is out
A while ago, there was a poster who was developing a dough proofer for market and wanted input from all of us. S/he had a survey and the link is here:

Well, the product is out and while it looks nifty, it does have an interesting price tag.So take a look and see what it's all about:
Moffat/Turbofan G32 vs E32
Looking at buying Moffat/Turbofan G32 (gas), but the sales rep said that E32 (electric) has 2 fans and gives a more even bake.

Anyone has experience with these models?
Also, is it a good idea to put a stone in G32?
