Pros

  • The bowl-lift support holds the bowl at three points.
  • The half-speed setting handles gentle folding.
  • A removable stainless steel bowl and interchangeable tools cover kneading, cake mixing and whipping.

Cons

  • Heavy mixtures require a rest period after 5–6 minutes of mixing.
  • The bowl-lift body needs a dedicated working space.

How the calculator uses this mixer

  • Water temperature. Pandough uses the typical friction factor for its type, 12. To reach 24°C dough in a 22°C kitchen, the calculator asks for water at 16°C, against 25°C when mixing by hand.
  • Batch size check. At 60% hydration, the calculator flags batches over 3.6 kg. For a 50% biga, the limit drops to 2.5 kg.

Formulas this mixer handles

The largest single batch for each formula at its own hydration. The limit is the same one the calculator checks your batch against.
