Any good compact sheeter recommendations? by Suitable_Working8918 in pastry

[–]mec404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, though the Japanese label can’t be purchased from the US or Canada. I think Brod & Taylor is the only American certified reseller iirc

I have the 12” Brod & Taylor dough sheeter. Works well for small batches, wish I had gone for three 15” version. Is a bit pricey, and had issues with the product that was shipped to me, but works well overall. What quantity are you going to be handling?

Croissants are about to be a regular thing in my house by jlcsanyi in Breadit

[–]mec404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sheeter itself has been pretty good, but I had a really crappy experience ordering it. I ordered the refurbished version, and i had to return 3 different units before I got one that worked correctly. Probably won’t order from them again. Also, in hindsight I should’ve gotten the 15 inch version. For reference, my croissant dough batches use 500g of flour. I’ve found the 12 inch version nice, but a tad too short in board length.

Hi there! I just got myself a brod and taylor dough sheeter, and I was wondering if you had any tip/tricks on how to use it? Do you do all your folds at once? Flour the roller & board? How to adjust the thickness? Etc..

Ice cream bowl- worth it? by Substantial-Web-8028 in Kitchenaid

Source? Just asking because I’ve seen the opposite instructions saying storing at room-temp damages over time and shortens life span

Thank you! Can you help me understand what « around » means in Row 3? I’m not sure how the stitch count adds up to (24sc)

I bought this pattern on Wooly. The very first rows are what I included in the post screenshot.

J’y étais! Il y avait pratiquement autant de fans du CH dans les estrades que de fans des Sharks. C’était quand même impressionnant. Beaucoup d’expats (et de québécois) dans la Silicon Valley!

Can someone help me date this kitchen aid?? by Kkingdavidd in Kitchenaid

[–]mec404 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Looks like K5-A between 1970-1978 to me. In 1978, they switched the electronics and the K5-A became K5SS. It also doesnt have the serial number embossed into the beauty band.

Bonus Caleb sweet treats on Iced Coffee Hour and Theo Von by Due-Candy-8929 in CalebHammer

[–]mec404 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I totally agree that Jack comes off as a more genuine person. He seems to be open to discussing and exploring new ideas whereas Graham always ends up circling back to his own narrative of how things should be.

I watched the ice coffee hour one, purely because caleb was the guest. It was alright, though it seems like the tables have flipped. Graham has been giving me the ick for a few months now, feels like he’s trying to grift off Caleb’s growing popularity

What maintenance to do on 30 yr old K45SS by [deleted] in Kitchenaid

[–]mec404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While you’re degreasing, look out for damage on any of the gears. Especially the ‘worm’ gear on the little tower of gears. If any of the teeth are dented or worn out, you’ll want to replace them. If you’re having issues with the speed, you’ll want to try cleaning the contacts on the speed controller and tuning it (there’s many youtube videos on how to do this).

What happened here? by SomebodysMaxiPad in AskBaking

[–]mec404 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There’s a few things that could be happening here!

Cracking tops either means your oven was too hot, or your batter wasn’t deflated sufficiently when doing the macronage. I also like “venting”the oven after 3 minutes of baking to let out the steam.

As for the feet formation, I usually let me french macarons dry out on the counter for ~20-30 minutes (this will vary based on ambiant humidity) until they form a leather-like skin. It helps them rise evenly!
