Plan a bake with this mixer

PEB ATENA is a fixed-bowl spiral mixer with a 9 L bowl. The current manufacturer sheet rates it for 400 g to 6 kg of finished dough, with a separate maximum of 3 kg of flour. Its spiral speed adjusts from 50 to 300 rpm, and the bowl can reverse. The drive uses belts, and a slot in the bowl guard allows ingredients to be added without interrupting mixing. PEB lists 0.37 kW as motor power; it does not identify this as the complete machine's electrical input.

How the calculator uses this mixer

  • Water temperature. Its friction factor is 11. To reach 24°C dough in a 22°C kitchen, the calculator asks for water at 12°C, against 24°C when mixing by hand.
  • Batch size check. At 60% hydration, the calculator flags batches over 6 kg. For a 50% biga, the limit drops to 4.2 kg. Under 400 g, it warns that the batch is too small.

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.
