Makes great dough but my results out of the oven are on the dissapointing side. At this point, I'm finding it's a learning curve error on my part. I think I kneed it too long since the crust is more than chewy, it tough. My last patch had the best crust so far but could be better. What I'm going for is crispy-chewy but not tough like beef jerky. Inside is soft with either artesian style bread or smooth and even air pockets. . Machine performance is excellent. The baker needs a bit more education.
I have been using a stand mixer for years and up until my recent purchase I never knew what I was missing. The dough hook and bar combine with the rotating bowl are genius. The R&D team at Ooni really did their homework and I only wish is that it had arrived 5 years ago.
I have been mainly using it to mix bread dough. It is able to mix 3k batch of dough easily without mixer or dough getting overheated. One of the best mixer I have own do far.
Absolutely love it. Extremely well made. Motor has torque for days and never bogs down. Yes I regularly mix 5kg of 70% hydration dough all the time and it never complains. This mixer is also really beautiful. Idk why some people are saying the mixing plate drive thingy is plastic. I'm 99% sure it's aluminum. Such a solid machine, an absolute tank. Did I mention it's also very beautiful? This is one of the most thoughtfully designed machines of any kind I've ever owned. The removable bowl and attachments are not a gimmicky, they are perfectly executed and work like a dream.
