Kenwood Major / Titanium Major tésztakapacitás és hidratáció
legfeljebb 3 kg tészta
A British planetary made from the 1950s to the 1990s and then refreshed as the Titanium Major until roughly 2005. Both are discontinued. The 4.6 L bowl is confirmed by collector manuals; the 350 W figure is the original brushed motor, and the later Titanium refresh raised it. Owners report 3 kg batches without the motor straining, which the metal gearbox explains. Below about 300 g, owners mix the wet ingredients first so the dough reaches the hook. There is no thermal cutout, so the owner has to judge motor heat.
- Examples from the 1970s are still in daily use.
- The metal gearbox handles stiff dough better than later plastic designs.
- Kenwood never published a dough mass, but the owner reports are unusually consistent.
- Spare parts are increasingly hard to source and some are obsolete.
- There is no thermal protection, so the owner has to monitor motor heat.
- UK examples are 240 V and need a transformer on a 120 V supply.
