I'm trying to convince my wife not to get a stand mixer because they are expensive, she doesn't bake often enough, having one won't make her bake more often (like she claims) and they are a waste of space.

I'm going to lose this battle though. Can you tell me what we can use this machine for that doesn't have to do with baking? Remember, because we don't bake this will collect dust otherwise.

They have all sorts of attachments. I personally own the noodle making attachments and the ice cream bowl as well as the juicer attachment.

They're honestly great if you bake even somewhat regularly.
>>
>>8677041
Get one you fucking retard. They're wonderful and, even if she doesn't bake, your kitchen will look better just having it. Stop being a pleb and graduate to the middle class.

Aside from baking, use it to mix things dumb ass.

>>8677041
I bought my stand mixer over 20 years ago and i'm still using it to this day, it's worth the cost.

Even when baking I use my food processor more often. But I usually make shortcrust/pie doughs for shit like Beef wellington and meat pies so I only have to cut in buttter. For mixing I use a hand /immersion blender with whisk attachment

I have an artisan and regularly do 2, 9x5 loaves of white bread, or two baguettes the length of a 16 inch baking tray.

I think the tiers above artisan aren't worth it, but they do come with a dough whip instead of dough hook, and that makes me jealous.

Pic related, was done in an artisan as a single batch with a hook. Sheet is standard 13x18 half sheet pan.


Op, you should get a stand mixer. Part of having a good life is keeping your lady happy. These are wonderful tools with many uses. I have the pasta rolling attachment as well and love it.

Stand mixers are great for baking desserts, but 99% of what you make out them is not health food.
>>
>>8678402

There is no difference in the mixing action of doing it by hand, or doing it in a machine. Gluten is developed either way.

Great bread can be made either way. The machine just means you can do it faster with less effort and it is great at mixing a thousand other things besides dough... the same argument can be made for those thousands of other things - though i would argue that for meringues and whipped cream the machine is actually better.
>>
>>8678592
>you can do it faster
Fast bread is shitty flavorless bread.
>>

wrong
>>
>>8678623

This isn't true if you use a pâte fermentée, biga, poolish, starter... or just let the bread rest for a long time after mixing in any way that you want to mix.

You just don't know anything about good bread. That's ok... you aren't alone. Really good bread is a dying art. The hipster scene wants to sell you on all kinds of bullshit artisan kich... read a book on baking and stop watching youtube videos of hipsters in cities making no knead loaves.

If you truly have no space in the kitchen on the countertops, then yea, I'd debate not getting a standmixer but rather a handheld mixer that slips into a drawer that can be taken out for whipping some mashed potatoes or a cake mix, or have some cart or on a shelf in the garage or somewhere out of my cubic 3x3x3 single only workspace between a sink and stovetop.

If you have a normal amount of space, they are attractive, and aside from bake sale cupcakes, some odd cake or two for 3 or more birthdays a year, I have to say I use my food processor wayyyyyyyyyyyy more and consider it the better purchase if only getting one item out on the countertops.
Things I make often in my quality (!) food processor:
bread dough, though I might mix in the last cup or two of flour by hand
pate brise/ pie crust dough
homemade sausage meat for gyros flavored loaf, sage sausage, mergeuz pork sausage, homemade chorizo
pulsing some meat to make my own coarse ground burgers
ginger-waterchestnut-green onion raw pork filling for dumplings like potstickers or won tons
chopped salads like shredding quarters of cabbage down the feed tube
shredded cheese, shredded carrots
I often pulse up mushrooms to fold into meatballs or meatloaf
combining cheese balls like gorganzola-date-walnut
making cracker doughs like southern cheese crackers
I chop onions, cilantro together, and then hand dice my salsa
I puree soaked dried ancho chilies for makin mexican things from refried beans to stews and enchilada sauces, like mole.
Chimmichurri for steaks coming off the grill
pesto

Where do you think bakeries got their yeast, faggot? You can increase fermentation speed by increasing the cell count (with a poolish) but it won't increase flavor.
>>
>>8678721

wrong fucking anyways. there's a drastic difference between machine kneading and hand kneading. and i don't give a fuck who you are, that's a fact.
>>

I never said anything about yeast strains... no one did. you are arguing with yourself and showing your mental retardation.

>>8678736
>You can increase fermentation speed by increasing the cell count (with a poolish) but it won't increase flavor.

Well.. that would depend on what the poolish is made of and what it tastes like, and how much you add to the new raw flour and water ingredients wouldn't it?

You see.. for some classical loaves (which i know that you have never baked, or probably even eaten) you would use up to 60% biga. With a sour dough starter.. where exactly do you think the sour dough taste comes from?


Look, I can't help that your brain doesn't work, but I can ask you nicely to stop polluting this thread with insane proclamations about fast bread being bad. fast isn't even a measurable amount of time so you are just spouting cliched tautologies which you know nothing of professionally. fuck off.
>>
>>8678749
>that's a fact

its actually an opinion - and even if it were a fact, it wouldn't be true for all mixers and all hand mixing techniques.

no, it's not an opinion, it's a fucking fact. you don't knead the bread the same way a mixer does. you can't. it's a fucking fact. and a mixer can't knead it the same way a person does with their hands. it can't. it's a fucking fact.and if you think otherwise, it's probably because you're a fucking second shift schlep who fucking has made 12 dollars an hour for a decade panning up frozen dough because you're fucking retarded and can't operate anything more complicated than a rack oven.

>>
>>8678816


Wow. looks like a hit a nerve. I guess this is why bakeries mix all their bread by hand huh?

Oh wait, they don't do that. because you can make gluten equally well using either method. In fact the machine can do it so quickly that it will impart heat to the dough making the rise better.

also... i love that you think fermentation is happening during proof and rise.... that.. uh... is just not when the fermentation happens friendo. not unless your proof is several days long. bakers will ferment parts of the dough.. but its not the whole batch. .. it's never the whole batch.

bakers can whip up a sourdough loaf in a couple hours using a stand mixer. professional bakers do this everyday. let that sink in.

No you're arguing with multiple people that are calling you a retarded autist. you haven't gotten through to anyone, and i'm pretty sure your reading comprehension is so bad that you think someone trying to correct you is now agreeing with you...

No one ever said anything about yeast strains.. this is a thread about stand mixers.
>>
>>8678864
>>8678864

the question of, 'can you make equally good loaves of bread' isn't the question. the question is, 'are they the same' and if you think that beating dough with a powered metal hook is the same as kneading it with flesh and bone are the same thing, you're fucking retarded, because they're not the same thing, and the results aren't the same. you can make a great loaf of bread of bread either way. sure. but that's not the point. the point is that they're NOT the fucking same and the results WON'T be the same, and if you disagree, what you're disagreeing with is the idea that a powered hook and a hand are different. which makes you obviously a fucking retard.

i never said anything about fermentation and proofing.

and professionals 'whip up sourdough' in 'a couple hours' using a fucking powdered additive from puratos. and even though, they let it sit in a cooler overnight. just thought that i'd mention you don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

I use it primarily for making whipped cream, mayonnaise, meringue and other things that take forever to whip manually
It's pretty versatile if you get some of the attachments like the pasta extruder.
I only make small batches of dough that are easy enough to mix by hand when making bread, so in most cases it never sees use in terms of baking.
Overall a stand mixer is very worth it if you like cooking. Get one OP you won't regret it

>I use it primarily for making whipped cream, mayonnaise

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gz0fLT_k3_U
>>
>>8678922
>if you disagree you're wrong because flesh and metal

professionals don't use powdered additives.. i mean.. some do... but a lot don't. they use pre ferments which add taste and they whip up loaves in a matter of a couple hours. its what i think you would refer to as fast bread - and its not bad bread at all.. it can be some of the best bread in the world.

other bakers will use seasonings.. rosemary salt crusts.. caraway rye... different flours such as corn, spelt, graham... other additives such as bran and seeds to impart lots of flavors into wonderful breads. in combination with a preferment, you can make bread that tastes like it took days to make in a matter of hours.

admit it, you watched a hipster make no knead loaves slowly over several days in a fridge and that fucker preached the slow cold ferment process and now you think that is the only way to make "good bread"

it turns out.. people have been using that method for hundreds of years - without even having refrigeration!

Look man.. we were all kids once and thought that we knew how things worked.. it's ok to be wrong sometimes.

ok, so now you've devolved into name calling and snarky steven colbert humor. because you don't know what you're talking about. you actually believed for one fucking second that you can get the exact same loaf of bread from a metal hook powered by 240v mains in a 200lb batch as you get from hand kneading in a 8lb batch.

which is patently ridiculous to anyone who understands that there is a difference between your hands and a 240v metal hook the size of your arm in a 120 quart hobart mixing bowl.

So like price chopper? I used to work at a hyvee bakery, so I get what you're saying lol. The amount of volume a grocery store has to put out is no joke.
Ever work for a smaller company? I was a pastry chef/bread baker at a little local bakery in the midwest. Volume wasn't too much, maybe 220-230 loaves per week, but we did everything from square one with all local ingredients that are all organic and shit.
Once I accidentally threw away the only starter culture we had, and I had to use the bits leftover at the bottom of the old container to try to reinoculate a fresh one. Took like 2 or 3 weeks to get the flavor back to where it was and I wanted to kill myself every single bake until then lol

Good read on why you should hand knead and why a long fermentation is needed

>you can get the exact same loaf of bread from a metal hook powered by 240v mains in a 200lb batch as you get from hand kneading in a 8lb batch.

This is actually true. I have done the research and testing and it 100% true. There are many variables... but you can absolutely replicate hand mixing with a machine at any volume.

>>8679021

I thought the hand kneading guy was arguing with the fermentation guy?

You both seem to work at commercial bakeries that mix by machine as well as using prebagged mixes to make bread - so i'm not really sure that either of you know what you are talking about.
>>
>>8679065

now that you've backpeddled and reversed your previous position that they're the same, i think my work is done here. i've improved you. thank me.

>>8679071

fuck off faggot

>>8679078

no, the fuck it is not. you can't replicate hand mixing with a hook if for some reason you wanted to. you know what variables there are? high speed/low speed and time. that's it. you've probably never even used a mixer.
>>
>>8678984
>admit it, you watched a hipster make no knead loaves slowly over several days in a fridge and that fucker preached the slow cold ferment process and now you think that is the only way to make "good bread"

>i work at le artiste shop, i make 6lb batches of bread!

i've made more bread in one day than your shop has sold in a month. it is you that do not know what the fuck you are talking about. i can roll 100lb of loaves perfectly before you could have it mixed and on the table, and i can bake several hundred loaves of bread with a peel in a stone deck over while you're figuring out how to punch buttons on your microwave or what the fuck ever you have in your shitty little whimsical jalopy bread store that you worked at for a decade or something. i doubt your store every made as much annually as i ordered from a warehouse on a weekly basis.

Honestly, OP, I'm with you, and I used to be a professional pastry chef. I'm not anymore (too old for that shit, except for family and friends). If you don't bake on the regular, an expensive stand mixer is basically just bragging rights. I DO have a professional stand mixer, but I keep it covered, out in the garage, and only pull it out when I'm making certain special things. On a regular basis, I use a good hand mixer, a whisk, and my hands.

You should take up baking, and then rub it in her face.

If you do buy a KitchenAid, get the kind in OPs image and not the cheaper screw-on bowl model (which I have).

I use the stand mixer a lot. Turns out great bread and pizza dough. I'd like to get the pasta roller attachment.

slightly incorrect.

fast RISING bread is shitty flavorless bread
less yeast more time is usually the better way to think about bread making.

some doughs are far too slack for the traditional kneading process, so you have to fold the dough to create gluten strength,
>>
>>8679217
>how many TONS of flour does your bakery go through in a week?

Look man.. I just know how to bake really good bread. I'm sorry you never learned how and I'm sorry that quantity is better than quality for you these days.

Enjoy your preset bagged mixes. I am sure you have to cut tons of corners when you are trying to make thousands of loaves a day.

None of this makes you correct about anything. All it does is reinforce how sad it is that you make bread for a living and don't really understand how bread was made historically, or how it is done in a residential setting.. with a home stand mixer - which is what this thread is about.

You do realize how far off base you are here right?

What the fuck did you just fucking say about bread, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I've made more bread in one day than your shop has sold in a month, and I have over 300 confirmed tons. I am trained in baking and I can roll 100lb of loaves perfectly before you could have it mixed and on the table. You are nothing to me but just another gluten. I will roll you the fuck out with precision the likes of which can only be accomplished by hand-kneading. You think you can get away with mixing dough with a machine? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my bakery and will have baked several hundred loaves of bread with a peel in a stone deck. The deck that kneads better bread than that pathetic little thing you call your stand-mixer. You’re fucking kneaded, dough. I can bake anywhere, anytime, and I can knead you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in baking bread, but I have access to the entire baking department and I will use it to its full extent to knead your miserable dough off the face of the shop, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” mixer was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have used your fucking hands. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will knead flour all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking baked, kiddo.
>>
>>8679259
>i watched a youtube video once about how to make really good bread

It's so clear that you have no clue what you are talking about.
>>
>>8679261

your argument is that someone who makes vast amounts of scratch hand rolled artisan bread baked in a deck oven is OBVIOUSLY less talented than someone who makes very little bread of dubious quality? does not follow, faggot. 'muh historical' shut the fuck up you wouldn't last a day in my shop. your defensive assumptions about 'preset bagged mixes' notwithstanding, have you even ever seen traviata?

the fuck does the OP's question have to do with it? has nothing to do with the fact that you're a paid amateur.
>>
>>8679265

That's not lack of self awareness, dumbass, that's called honesty. Since I was a professional pastry chef in my younger years, it would only make sense that I have one.

Uh, no. Literally, by definition, it's an ASTOUNDING and ironic lack of self awareness.

Now fuck off.
>>
>>8679388

All of those statements can be true, and it can still show an incredible lack of self awareness, and can still be ridiculously ironic.

See how that works, idiot?

>>8677041
You don't use a power drill or a car battery charger everyday either, but they are handy to have when you need them.

NO, he pointed out that people mostly brag about home kitche standups, and that he had one. that doesn't give you enough information to say that he's lacking self awareness and being 'ridiculously ironic'. so shut the fuck up.
>>
>>8679408

Actually what he said was directly quoted without alteration.

But you know.. Like, whatever, man.
>>
>>8679418

If you think about it for a little while though, you'll understand it though.

See... the problem is that you just haven't thought about it enough yet. The statements themselves were all you need to know to figure this out - you just have to think about it for a while until you get it. Go ahead. Have a think.

>>
>>8679418

look.. you know what.. i'll help you out.

here is what he said:
>an expensive stand mixer is basically just bragging rights. I DO have a professional stand mixer

ok.. here is the definition of ironic:
>ironic:
>happening in the opposite way to what is expected, and typically causing wry amusement because of this.

You see... if you finish a sentence with "an expensive stand mixer is basically just bragging rights [if you don't bake on the regular]" and then you start the next sentence with " I DO have a professional stand mixer, but I keep it covered, out in the garage, [and rarely use it]" that is irony - because that is the opposite of what would have been expected.

i won't bother you with a thesis about being unself aware... but it is safe to say that if this guy actually says this one thing, and then lives his life in a hypocritical state - he is likely not just making ironic comments on the internet, but he is also probably quite unaware of his self and the way he is thinking about other human beings in relation to the way he is living his life.

That's a break down of what the words we are using right now mean and why i'm right.

now you can go back to slinging poop or whatever you were doing before...

really fired up my neurons.
>>
>>8679467

look... i didn't make up the definition for irony. I looked it up and quoted it.

If you don't know what irony is, I can only provide you with the definition. You have to understand it yourself.

See.. this gets back to me asking for people to be self aware, and that being too much to ask...

This is kind of ironic now.
>>
>>8679487
so is it like a free ride when you've already paid?
>>
>>8677475
Yes it is.
>>
>>8679486
>>the context doesn't change if I omit context changing parts of the sentence

The lack of self awareness and irony, had nothing to do with the context. It had everything to do with the fact that he literally said "stand mixers are for penis measuring" and then in the very next sentence said "i have a professional grade floor mounted stand mixer that i have to keep in the garage"

How tiny must that guy's penis be? And how unaware of himself must he be to live in such hypocrisy? It's fucking mind boggling.

Do you really need the rest of the sentence to understand this? In any context it would still be retarded. The first part could have said "i am god" and the last part could have said "god never makes ironic unaware statements" and the middle part would still be on the full retard scale.

no, you stupid fucker. irony is when something specifically contradicts an expected condition, explicitly. when the creator of the titanic said, 'not even god could sink this ship' and it sunk on its first voyage, that was irony. when it rains on your wedding day, that is NOT irony, because simply because you didn't desire it to rain doesn't make it irony.

when someone says, 'most people just buy these mixers to brag about them' and then buys them, that is NOT irony, because simply because most people just buy them to brag, doesn't mean that YOU'RE buying it to brag, or that everyone is.

I had my mom's here, but she wanted it back, so now I get a little ab workout when I knead dough. Stand mixers really don't get used much, and a hand mixer is cheaper and more effective for stuff that needs more rip-ems than you can produce manually. Spend that money on a torquey food processor for frozen banana niceream, and maybe a good blender.

2 choices -
1. Don't get her the fancy, expensive Kitchen Aid. Get her the Sunbeam stand mixer for 25-50% of the price.
2. Get her the Kitchen Aid and then also pay for every attachment (which usually cost as much or more than their equivalent appliance).
