Buena pregunta! En el video es poco más de un kilo. Nunca he tratado más.

To be completely honest, the way he’s doing it is correct. For lower hydration doughs like bagel dough, you need that pressure from the spring loaded arm for better gluten development. In Ankarsrum’s video you linked, it’s a basic bread dough and they did not start with a yeast sponge then add the rest of the dry mix. I made a batch today with mine and made the mistake of not keeping the arm closer to the side of the bowl for my dough.

Buena suerte! Siento no poder ayudarle.

Aquí en Venezuela estado Zulia venden ésas bandas.

La masa inicial es medio kilo de harina de pan, medio kilo de agua. Al 1:15 le añado otro medio kilo de harina.

@ gracias, muy amable. 👍

Eso es poco mas de un kilo. Me imagino que pueda manejar mas, pero nunca lo he intentado.

Same thing. I just blew out my fourth KA in five years. No more. My Assistent arrived this afternoon.

I have a Kitchenaid, model is KSM90. It's not a high-end one. Yes, I've tried this bagel dough with it; once. Or, part of once. It was not even close to strong enough to handle the dough; I had to finish by hand.

Eduardo Santiago thanks for replying I did the bagels this morning and now they’re in the fridge for tomorrow and yes I also had to finish by hand the motor was starting to get hot and smelly I’m definitely going to invest in the ankarsrum for bagels and other breads

@@silnieves Hi Silni🤗please let me know if you'll buy this one..I'm really interesting about results,cause I want to buy the same one.. Have a nice day🙏💕

samy z I did buy one and already made a batch of bagels and bread there’s a bit of a learning curve though but not hard. The quality is definitely there and worth the price

JohnnyJim J I didn't record with sound, it didn't contribute anything to the video. The mixer is quiet relative to a Kitchenaid.

Eduardo, thank you for your answer! I was looking forward to hearing the sound of the motor because it can tell a lot about power and mechanical quality, and because there is precious little known about this machine in North America, especially vintage models. The thing is, I'm looking into getting what I believe to be an N4 from 60s and anything I can learn about this machine will help me decide whether I should take the plunge or not, because the seller is NOT giving it away and for a good reason, it comes with a grinder, a shredder a juicer and sausage stuffer. How long have you had yours and how often do you use it? Would be be suitable for making 4 loaves of bread (2kg of whole wheat dough) at a time every couple of days? Can it do other things besides dough? What do you think of the attachments? What should I be looking for in a model as old as the N4, are parts still available? Thanks again, your opinion is precious to me :-)

Hi! Mine is from circa 2011; it may be very different from a 1960s one. To try to answer your questions: I think this is a workhorse. I haven't baked much in the last few months, but when I make bagels it has always run smoothly. Bagel dough is by far the toughest, densest dough I've ever worked with, and is in fact the sole reason I bought this machine. I don't actually use it for anything else, I'm happy with my Kitchenaid for other breads and cake batters and meringue. So I'm really not able to answer about the Assistent's usefulness for anything other than heavy bread doughs. I'm sorry not to be more helpful. Good luck with your decision!

Eduardo, thank you again. I have no doubt from its design and its origin that it was built to last. Not that I really need it, my Kitchenaid Professional 6000 HD can knead more batter that I can possibly bake at a time, but I really like the funky design and the accessories it comes with, plus the fact it's from the 1960s, pretty much at the peak in of kitchen appliance design and durability :-)

So I did make the plunge and have had my 1957 Electrolux Assistent model N4 for several months now and have pretty much put the KitchenaAid 6000 HD aside for making bread, it just can't hold a candle to the Assistent :-) Done a 7 pound 60% AR whole wheat dough batch lately ,no problem, hardly slowed down at all, it really is that good. You just need to learn how to set the roller at the proper distance depending on the amount of dough and use proper mixing order (water first, flour later) and you're good to go :-)

May I ask which model Kenwood you have? I'm thinking of getting a Titanium 7 quart. Thanks.

I don't know what you mean by flat beater; see here for attachments (note that the product name seems to have changed): pleasanthillgrain.com/accessories-ankarsrum-magic-mill-dlx-mixer-attachments

The dough hook is great, but for low hydration doughs like this, you're better off with the roller and scraper.

Глеб Каван no it isn't I'm sorry your wrong

Hopefully by now you got yourself one for a better price? Found my Electrolux Assistent N4 from 1957 for $80 complete on kijiji... Just like the video, it does take more time than other types of mixers but works very well indeed :-)

I know someone who has been using the previous model for the last 19 years. Pretty robust "trash."

Oh, for pete's sake, this is made in Sweden where people earn real wages, not in China. In addition, it doesn't ship to the U.S. for free and the vendors have to make some money.

I know someone, a master baker, who relocated here from Switzerland with her beloved Kenwood; I think she recently replaced it. She mostly does cakes, so I don't think hers will have to work so hard but the one she brought here had served her well for many years. This machine ROCKS. I waited years to be able to afford it (even though it's overkill for me) and since buying mine a few months ago, I've bought two to give as gifts, and another friend just ordered one yesterday. My cousin and my friend (the recipients) LOVE theirs, which helped push my other friend's decision to bite the bullet.

Sorry to hear that about your Kenwood. It's pretty bad to have two repairs for such a young mixer. I was thinking of getting the Titanium 7-quart. Usually, they get very good reviews.
