Dough

Can I make dough with a high liquid content?

You absolutely can! For this we recommend using the dough roller and working the dough for longer than dough with a lower liquid content. Around 15 minutes after all the ingredients have been added.

The dough climbs up the sides of the bowl. What am I doing wrong?

This is most likely to happen when the dough roller is being used. When using the dough roller, you should not lock the arm (and thus the roller) straight away, but should leave it resting against the bowl as it mixes the first few ingredients together. Let the Assistent operate at low speed as it does this. Once the dough starts to get so “firm” that it starts to climb, lock the roller 2-4 cm from the edge by pulling the arm towards the middle and turning the base knob. You can then increase the speed to medium.

How much dough can I make?

The Assistent can handle 5 kg dough. This means baking using 1.5 litres of dough liquid. This makes about 150 cinnamon rolls or 5-6 large loaves of bread. If you make this much at once, remember that you may need two bowls for proving the dough.

When should I use the dough hook?

The dough hook can be used for all types of dough. Not recommended if you are making a small quantity of dough and baking just one loaf of bread – for this we recommend the roller. If you are going to make a really big batch of dough (150 rolls or 5-6 large loaves), we recommend using the dough hook rather than the dough roller. Remember that you may need two bowls for proving this much dough.

When should I use the dough roller?

The dough roller can be used for all types of dough. If you are making small quantities of dough (one loaf of bread) or dough containing a lot of liquid or butter, or you are baking gluten-free, we recommend using the dough roller rather than the dough hook.

The dough just hits the sides of the bowl. What should I do?

This is usually due to the dough being too firm and to too much flour being added. Reduce the speed and adjust the base knob. When you make dough in the Assistent, you usually need a little less flour than indicated in the recipe. So add the flour a little at a time. Also bear in mind that the dough gets firmer once the Assistent has kneaded it for a few minutes.

The ingredients won’t mix – they just stay in the middle of the bowl. What should I do?

Sometimes you may need to help by pulling the arm towards the middle to pick up the dry ingredients. Remember not to lock the arm until the ingredients have begun to mix and the dough has started to climb up the sides of the bowl. Only then do you lock the arm. The dough hook is centred and locked, and the dough roller is locked 2-4 cm from the edge of the bowl.
