Game changer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off.. I never give five star reviews to anything . Why? I usually find an annoying design flaw . ESPECIALLY when it comes to the kitchen appliances.
We’ve all tossed expensive , bulky, heavy .”bread machines”. I never used mine, and I’m not that great of a baker, either, so I gave up on bread entirely.
This accessory to my artisan stand mixer is a game changer: mix, proof and bake all in one accessory?
I thought.. it’s too expensive to toss…should I?.
This thing is great design. The ceramic allows the bread to steam internally creating a soft fluffy bread with a crunchy exterior. The shape is the key, I’m guessing , because the shape of bread loaves make even my bread look delicious and round like a loaf from the bakery.
I love that it has the lid for proofing, and there’s just the one bowl to have around, and clean up after baking. Making wayyy too much bread now. :)
I would recommend this to a friend!

I’ll keep trying

Just received this bowl and used it for the first time. While baking with the lid on, the dough expanded up the side of the bowl so when I removed the bowl from the base, it tore the side of the bread off. So it wasn’t pretty, but tasted great. I’ll keep trying. Certainly isn’t as effortless as the video’s show.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The idea is there but the product needs a fix.

The Good: I'm not a good cook, but my first 5 attempts at making bread came out beautifully using this. I used a slightly different recipe from the NYT like all the other "easiest bread recipes" you can find online. So for that I think this is a great product. Unfortunately the bad is a deal breaker: The bowl and lid need to be non-stick. If you try to flour there inside of the bowl, the flour burns and sticks hard, requiring steel wool to remove, even after soaking overnight. Even if placing the dough on parchment on the lid/ now base during baking, if you don't flour the bowl, the bread will stick to the sides of the bowl/now being used as a lid to bake. No matter how you cut it, the usefulness of the item is eliminated. Either you have burnt flour and a great deal of hard scrubbing or bread stuck to the sides requiring hard scrubbing. It's a bummer. I was really into baking bread but after 5 passes, I got tired of scouring and scrubbing it clean. Now I get excited at the idea of making bread, but the thought of all the scrubbing shuts that down fast.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Loaf stuck to base
on September 8, 2021
Posted by: pwiseman
from Atlanta
As a very experienced bread baker, I was excited to try this. I used the supplied recipe, a classic boule. Looks lovely, but is firmly stuck to the base; had to cut and scrape to get it off. Tasty with butter, but a disappointment over all. I'll try again with my usual 60% hydration recipe (this one's much higher).
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

all stuck
on September 1, 2021
Posted by: Lucy111
from NC
my bread caused the bottom and top to be glued together after the 30 min cooking. I had to take a screw driver and hammer to it to get it separated and then some of the bread had also stuck to the sides so it all broke apart. I stuck it all back together and put back in the oven for final 10 minutes of cooking. I think it would of been pretty if the top and bottom had not glued together. This was sour dough which tends to spread out too. not sure that 30 minutes was enough to be done in the middle also. my recipe says 45 minutes not 30. I cooked 35. after the final 10 minutes without the top it is only 200 degrees inside. I'm waiting until it is 210 degrees until I take it out of the oven. I don't know whether to recommend it or not. maybe an expert bread baker could make this work. it could of had more directions. maybe parchment paper would help but not supposed to use it in an oven hotter than 425.

The fact that they don't make this compatible with the bowl lift model is insane, they need to fix this asap
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Doesn't work with Professional
on December 26, 2023
Posted by: wildyaker
I was given this because I had a KitchenAid Professional 5. Professional meaning, it should be able to do everything the basic tilt mixers do. Nope. It does less than the tilt head mixers. I wish I never bought the professional. It is so limited and this bowl doesn't work with it. Deceptive marketing in my opinion.
