  • Today I make the first dough in my new Famag IM5 S high hydration mixer. I use caputo nuvola at 65% hydration to make the pizza dough. The mixer is a different beast to what I am use to, so there is a bit of a learning curve especially with the spiral and the friction on the dough which can cause the dough temperature to rise. The end result was a really nice pizza with a fabulous crust after only 8 hours fermentation.

    Temp should be between 24-26. You have to measure the inside of the dough with a meat thermometer, not the outside. Try kneading longer at a lower speed. Your overworking the dough with too high a speed, which is why your dough pulls back on you sometimes during stretching.

      @@PizzaRamblings It's a good tip, that is actually a common technique in sourdough breadmaking (although using room temp water) .. it's called "bassinage" .. the theory is that the reduced hydration helps to develop better gluten structure, then when the remaining water is added, helps to smooth the dough and make it more extensible i.e. to enable a more open crumb structure .. and for more experienced bakers, the additional/remaining water may vary according to how "thirsty" the flour is, and the overall feel and behavior of the dough ..

There are many different ways to use it from putting in all the water to dribbling in tiny amounts over a longer period, ice no ice.... Without doubt you will find the dough really good out of the machine, and you will find in most cases that machine finishes the dough to the extent that you dont need to do anymore work on it. If you can, get the multi speed version. Just ask if you have any other questions. 👍

    • @vc179
      @vc179 Před 3 lety +1

      Kitchen Aid is a planetary mixer, Famag spiral mixer.
      For this type of dough the spiral is better because it allows to obtain a better gluten mesh by heating the dough less.
      To obtain good results with the planetary mixer, a high speed must be used with the risk of overheating the dough, and in any case the gluten mesh will be less formed.
      For this the pizza looks a bit more firm.
      The gluten mesh is very important. After 24/48 hour maturation and cooking at 400°C you will have a softer dough with more air inside.

      The mechanical work of the spiral heat the dough.
      The perfect final temperature is 23 ° C.
      Too low temperatures, below 16 ° C, slow down the leavening, the dough will be stiff and with little volume.
      Too high temperatures, higher than 33 ° C, stimulate the yeast too much: the dough has a lot of leavening, has no elasticity and can be acidic.

      The secret is to add cold water a little at a time.
      For example, choose a percentage of water, immediately add a part, the greater part, the rest (10%? Experience will tell you) keep it aside. When the dough has formed, add the salt and a little bit of water set aside, just a drizzle.
      You have to add the rest of the water a little at a time, after the dough has absorbed the previous one.
      Check the temperature (best 22-23 ° C). If it's high, stop, let it cool down and then resume. This will help the gluten mesh.
      The processing time is of secondary importance because it depends on many, too many parameters and the water is different for each country.

      @@PizzaRamblings no worries. We've been making our own bread now for 4 years so we're upping our game from the 2003 model 500 Watt Kitchen Aid. Long story short, constant shortages of the IM5S led me to get the Sunmix Sun 6, which I actually see as an upgrade but had decided against because of the increased cost. The US dealer was able to cut me a deal that actually made it cheaper than the Famag and I added the light and timer. To be clear, cheaper than the tilting head version but more than the fixed head.
      After a good bit of research I decided that the 300 RPM high hydration mode and reverse were not needed on a mixer this size. Those are about a $140 mod for the Sun6. Everything I read was that for reverse to be truly useful only the spiral should change direction not both a spiral and the bowl which is the case on the smaller spiral mixtures like the sun six and IM5S. The high hydration modes also seemed like features we wouldn't need given the 210 rpm of the Sun6 is more than enough for even 100%. The higher RPM results in a more intensive mix which isn't necessarily needed. Everything I was reading was that the intensive mix had more to do with making a batch faster in a commercial environment like a family pizzeria.

      Hi, yes it gets warm. The lower the hydration the more friction I think. I always use ice water now and since then the mixing temperature has been fine. I have a KA too and I noticed that also gets the dough warm but it's not a proper spiral, it's more of a hook. I used that for a year not thinking about dough temp whatsoever lol

    pro tip: you can pretty much tell what level the gluten has developed by monitoring how cleanly the dough is 'breaking' against the beater bar. once there is a clean break, then proceed until the dough is silky smooth. i cool the flour in the fridge and use ice water for 70% hydration. i am able to get 5 more minutes of mixing time by doing so. the dough temp at 25˚ is my cutoff. i have gone longer (up to 30˚) with no negative effects, but i don't want to run the risk of breaking the gluten.

    I am just a little concerned about the possible usage of this machine in comparison to a household kitchen aid.

      Hi, hope you are enjoying your machine. Usually on a 24hr dough I leave it in bulk for 18 and ball for 6. I'm not sure what I did in that video but thats what I normally do. Use ice water, 10 mins on speed 2 then speed 4 till it hits 25c @65% hydration. This will be different on other hydratations. Get a temp probe that you can take the core dough temp with. Cheers

I'll probably try high hydration pizza dough because everyone says its very tasty… but a lot of work to get it right. I take it you have the high hydration version. If so, does it make good dough with less than 75 % hydration. If it does then I'll probably go for the HH version because then I can make low or high hydration dough and get the best of both worlds. I'd be very grateful if you think that's a good plan because you are much more experienced than I am and I don't want to buy the wrong mixer. Thanks Tony

      I doubt it, that's KitchenAid prices. They work fine, but the dough hook isn't as good as a spiral so you still have to do quite a bit of stretching and folding after using the mixer. That's not a problem tho. KA is better on 65% hydration, the lower hydration doughs are harder for the mixer and the dough crawls up the hook.
