It looks like you would like a simple answer to what many of us here have spent years trying to perfect.

The short answer is yes, you can make most or all of the breads listed and retard them in a chiller until needed, but some of your customers might expect a certain quality that comes from baking all night. Purchasing breads from someone who does bake all night might be and option for you.

Between the english muffins, bagels, baguettes you have 3 very different process methods. I'm not sure you would be able to begin work at 6AM and have the product you listed above ready by 9AM.

I think you are referring to a spiral mixer.

Many of us here use the Ankarsrum mixer. Do a web search and you will find outlets for them. I don't know where you live and distribution if different between countries.

Unless you have a really big oven with many decks I don't think you will be able to bake all those goods in 2 1/2 hours. They all have different temperatures and timing, and some may use steam and others may not. Maybe you can bake some similar types and source other types from another baker.

My baguettes need 30 minutes to cool and my larger loaves may need many hours. Preparing, baking and cooling are all required steps.
