Plan a bake with this mixer

A compact commercial bowl-lift planetary now associated with both Varimixer and Witt. Published guidance puts ordinary dough around 2 kg, but the low-hydration absorption chart still needs confirmation. Its main advantage is commercial construction in a home-sized bowl.

How the calculator uses this mixer

  • Water temperature. Its friction factor is 12. To reach 24°C dough in a 22°C kitchen, the calculator asks for water at 14°C, against 24°C when mixing by hand.
  • Batch size check. At 60% hydration, the calculator flags batches over 2 kg. For a 50% biga, the limit drops to 1.4 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.
