Aluminum dough hooks.
When I was looking up specs for Globe mixers I noticed that they make an optional Stainless Steel, spiral dough hook and got to thinking.
I know dough is only in contact with the mixer hook for a short period of time, but could there be an interaction between some doughs (I'm thinking specifically sourdough) and Aluminum? Could there be another reason for offering a Stainless option?
