Whoa! That is hard work and super satisfying to watch! 😍😍😍 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@wildbreads2229]

Cheers Bob! 🙂🙏

[@zeitgeist01]

I admire all the hard work! It's my dream to start up a microbakery in my hometown in Ph one day. I hope you can show us the business side of the microbakery as well ( finance wise) Thanks for all the posts! It's very inspiring to watch 😊

[@wildbreads2229]

Hello! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! I'll definitely make a video about the business side of the microbakery - thanks for the idea! :)

Laminated dough products are very satisfying to work on. ♥️ Any recommendations where to get bakery equipment (sheeter, chillers, oven haha)?

[@wildbreads2229]

Hello, so sorry for getting back to you so late! I bought most of the bakery equipment from Alibaba! :) Just make sure to ask the company (that you'll buy the equipment from) if they can ship to their partner warehouse in your country. Are you in the Philippines? I can recommend 2 companies I bought equipment from that have warehouses in Manila. :) - JC

[@ranma9823]

@@wildbreads2229 No problem! I hardly had the time to get cash from the bank when I was working at a bakery (and zero social life). 😆 And yes, I am in the Philippines, for the meantime. Would love to know which companies you recommend. Thank you! : )

@@wildbreads2229 Hi! Any updates on this? : D Glad to see the business doing so well. : )

Hi. How cold is your fridge? Tq

[@DaporotiYat]

Hi.. May i know which alibaba seller u bought the dough sheeter from?

[@angelicafua811]

Love your micro bakery set up! 😍How many sqm is your kitchen?? Maybe you can do a kitchen tour in one of your videos 🌼

[@wildbreads2229]

Hi Angelica! I'm not sure about the exact number but it's between 16-18 sqm according to our engineer friend. The kitchen tour sounds like a great idea! I am posting a video this week and that'll probably be my next video! Thanks a lot! 🙂🙏 - JC

[@nooresclamado3301]

Wow good for you and Alex and the rest of the team. Sir, nice to see that you are upgrading your eguipments. May I ask kung saan mo nabili sheeter mo at yong proofer/retarder/freezer ba yan? Planning to have those sa commissary po sana I'm from Leyte po kasi. Thank you po. :-) Continue inspiring people. :-) God Bless and keep safe.

[@wildbreads2229]

Hey Noor! So sorry for the late response - been super busy the past few weeks. So I bought all of these off of Alibaba. It's way cheaper than if I bought these locally. 🙂

[@dharelldg58]

Where do you buy your flour for your croissants?

[@DaporotiYat]

Hi. How do u clean your spiral mixers bowl? Mine cannot be removed. So I wipe it clean with soapy water and towel. I see you scrub with water. I like to do that too. How do u get all the water out? Tq ☺️

[@wildbreads2229]

Hi! So sorry for the late response - I use a sponge to get all the water out of the bowl. Sadly, there's no other way (at least for me). Cheers :)

[@DaporotiYat]

Thank You... Its Ok we bakers don't have much free time 😅. Anyway.. Love the dough sheeter...

[@DaporotiYat]

Hi i would like to share how i get the water out from the spiral mixer. Recently i discovered an aquarium pump! It is small and portable. People use it to drain water from fish aquarium when they want to clean it. It works great. But at the end still some small amout of water and then u will still have to use a sponge or microfibre cloth. Hope this will help 👍

[@twentyseventhbakest.6735]

What a dream to have this kind of business and those equipmen.. I'm planning to have my own microbakery too but I don't know where to find legit shop to buy commercial use equipment and it's really expensive buying it here in PH compared outside. If you don't mind me asking where do you purchase your dough roller?

[@wildbreads2229]

Heya! Sorry for the late response - I bought it from Alibaba. They shipped it to a warehouse in Manila and I had it Lalamoved to our place. :) I will post about the whole process sometime next month but if you're in a hurry, send us a message on Facebook, or IG and I'll walk you through how to buy from Alibaba and have it shipped to your place :) Cheers!

[@twentyseventhbakest.6735]

@@wildbreads2229 Yay! Thank you for noticing. Looking forward to that video in the future. I really live watching your vlogs. It's so satisfying.

Hello! New subcriber here. Im from Mindanao and I appreciate all your videos. They're very inspiring. I would like to ask if you can help me how to buy your dough sheeter?

Hello po, for sharing po ba ang recipe ng Croissan nyo sir and any advice po for making Frozen Croissants 🤍

[@prexprex519]

Ano size ng croissant nyo at timbang ?

[@maishomai]

Hello, when can i buy the butter sheet you were using here? thanks

[@wildbreads2229]

Hello! You can look it up on Facebook Marketplace - search for "lamination butter," "butter sheets," or "sheeted butter" - iba iba din kasi tawag nung mga sellers. Cheers! 🙂

[@Adam-cp8it]

These look amazing! Is there commercial yeast in the finale dough or just in the poolish? Also did you lower or raise the hydration from tartines original recipe?

[@wildbreads2229]

Hey Adam! So sorry for getting back to you so late - we used to just use a starter and a poolish but when we started making 600-800 croissants every weekend on top of the breads, we started freezing them so we can bake in batches. What we noticed is that the leavening power of both preferments AFTER freezing isn't as strong so now we add additional yeast (we use active dry yeast) so they proof better. I lowered the hydration, Tartine's croissant recipe is way above the recommended hydration level for croissants so I've adjusted it to be 52% instead of Tartine's 60+ (I think). Cheers! - JC :)

Salamat! 🙏🙏

[@wagmokongkausapin]

Do you freeze them after the 2nd round of folds?

[@wildbreads2229]

Hi! Yes, we do - we don't have A/C in the workshop so we put everything in the freezer to cool them down faster. Cheers!

Hello sir, saang company nyo po inorder yung laminator ninyo sa alibaba? We are planning to buy. Ans what flour are you using para maging ganyan kaganda yung croissants ninyo?

[@wildbreads2229]

Hi! I bought from 2 companies (R&M and Shineho). Will make a video Alibaba video soon. I'm using locally bought bread flour lang - they refer to it as first class. It's cheaper than APF and I'm used to it from making breads so I chose to work with bread flour. 🙂

[@foodislove21]

Hello Sir in what company nyo po nabili yung dough sheeter please? Sa shineho or R&M po?

[@anscookinglesson4607]

Pwede po ba mag order ng frozen corissant dough lang po? Pasend po where to contact you

[@Eclipse581]

How much is a laminator in the Filipinos? In my area is around 5,000 usd with taxes.

[@wildbreads2229]

Hi Ana, I buy all my equipment direct from the manufacturer in China. So this laminator, for example, costs between 3500-4000 USD if I bought it locally. I bought this from a manufacturer I found on Alibaba for 1500 USD including shipping to the city near me because they have a partner warehouse there. Let me know if you need a bit more information on this and I just might make a video to walk people through on how they can DIY and go direct to the manufacturer to buy bakery equipment for less. I'm pretty sure the factories on Alibaba have warehouses in the US if that's where you're at right now. Cheers - JC

[@Eclipse581]

@@wildbreads2229 yes, definitely a huge saving! I’ve looked into alibaba but was afraid to get scammed. I’ll definitely re-evaluate, I’m located in the Caribbean, my options are limited. Thank you so much!
