Kitchenaid vs. Maxima MSM 8 - making Pizza dough

[@simplicity6564]

The KA is a light to medium weight home multifunctional appliance compared to a very light commercial unit specifically meant for one thing. They are both good when used as designed.

[@briand2614]

I did the same. I stepped up from a Kitchenaid to the Maxima. Actually mine is a Vevor as sold here in the US, but it's the same mixer. I think a lot of people are quite happy with the Kitchenaid, but they are not all alike. There are so many different models. Mine was constantly stripping the plastic driven gear. I hate it. The Maxima is a great mixer for the price, but it is a one trick pony designed specifically for dough, and is very heavy. If all you are mixing is pizza or bread dough it's hard for me to recommend a Kitchenaid when the Spiral is almost the same price, and so much better at the job. Vito Iacopelli actually recommends mixing for 20 minutes in the Spiral. I've found that is a good target, although it really seems to come together at around 17-18 minutes.

[@larshansen5533]

I think quite a few commenters misses the point. Perhaps also misled by poster by clearly overloading the KA. What the point is that a spiral mixer makes better bread/pizza dough than a planetary mixer. The planetary mixers are typically more versatile making them suitable for most home-users.

[@jackskalski3699]

I totally agree. Maxima is way better. To be honest though it does require a minimum of 1.5kg dough at a time. For an avid home baker that's not an issue. It is bigger and probably not as good looking which might have storage implications. The last thing I'd like to add that there are spiral stainless steel (third party) dough hooks for kitchen aid that do change the game a lot. I bought one for my kitchen aid and it does help, it's a serious upgrade. It won't cause kitchen aid to beat maxima but I can mill grain and squeeze fruit with my kitchen aid :). So nothing is black and white in life :) Thanks for the video I liked this comparison a lot. People seem to misunderstand why this video was created :)

[@edstar83]

The Kitchenaid is a planetary mixer. Homegrade. The Maxima is a Spiral mixer. Chinese knock off of an Italian commercial grade mixer. The *Famga IM-8.* 8 for 8 kg dough capacity. Planetary mixers are primarily designed for whipping up cream, mixing cookie dough and cake batter ect. Maybe small batch of bread or pizza dough. Spiral mixes are designed for mixing bread and or pizza dough only including high hydration doughs. You won't find a Spiral mixer in a cake factory or cake store. Likewise you won't find a planetary mixer in a Pizzeria or bread bakery. They are two different types of mixers that compliment each other. Not meant to compete against each other. Let alone compare a knock off of an Italian commercial mixer to a homegrade mixer designed for women to bake cookies, muffins and cakes.

[@HenkPoley]

The spelling is Famag IM-8, btw

[@TheovWelt]

Unrealistic, since MSM 8 is designed for 3 kg of flour and KA for 1 kg of flour. Repeat the test with 333 grams of flour in the KA, then both machines are loaded to 1/3 of their capacity.

[@stevedenruyter4902]

I agree

[@nhojcam]

KA mixer is in NO WAY designed to mix pizza dough. simply, it is NOT a "dough machine." i even bought a really good stainless dough hook off amazon for my KA, but it still only gets the dough about 80% there before the dough starts to overheat. so... i forked out the $500 for the vevor spiral dough mixer, which is the same mixer as the MSM... identical in every way and made in the same factory. yep, the MSM / Vevor gets.it.done. !!! my pizza dough is definitely pro-level now and i didn't have to buy an $1850 famag 8. i have perfect gluten structure development. best $500 i ever spent. cleaning the MSM / Vevor is actually not that much of a pain. just buy it if you're serious about your pizza dough. that, and make sure to use caputo red flour. cheers!

[@briand2614]

Same. I have the Vevor. I paid $360 for it used in like new condition. A beast, night and day versus my wimpy Kitchenaid. I saw a KA lift bowl at Costco today for $399, and the Vevor sells for about $480 new. There really is no comparison. Also you can pretty much do 90% of what most people do with in a KA with a cheap hand mixer, or even a hand wisk!

[@Tipko]

I just ordered a spiral mixer (Famag 8)but was using Kitchenaid up until now. Even if the spiral mixer should take the dough to the next level, I have to compliment our kitchenaid. It's done a fantastic job until now. But, instead of using the hook from the start try going through the 3 tools you have; the whip for water and flour until you have a pancake-like batter, then the 2nd tool and finish with the hook. That should help. Limit was 1kg of flour for me, however.

[@brfam1977]

I just make smaller batches of dough with my kitchenaid and that solves that for me anyway

[@Ionic457]

Just picked up my first spiral mixer, I am so so so excited to not have to knead by hand anymore!! This video proves I made the right decision!

[@Ionic457]

@goinghomesomeday1 Welcome to the good life!

[@jayaline]

Brilliant comparison. If anyone doubts, I can confirm as I have seen this in real life. Professional spiral mixers make beautiful dough. "Cake mixers" make rubbish dough and end up just wasting your time and your flour. . Also, you can easily burn out your cake mixer's motor with a heavy dough.

[@horserun2551]

Can confirm. Then I got a Hakka spiral mixer and never looked back since.

[@johnyuna9098]

@@horserun2551 can i ask if you have any idea how spiral mixer would compare to horizontal mixer in terms of bread dough kneading?

[@horserun2551]

@@johnyuna9098 Never used a horizontal mixer before, but I read that it generates more heat. On hindsight, a small commercial planetary mixer would also be good for me as I could freeze the dough hook for longer kneading. That would be what I will get if my Kenwood breaks down again beyond cost-efficient repair.

[@michaelosborne3414]

Now do 3 egg whites whisking in the Maxima. That would be an equally pointless comparison to match this one

[@SairaSaadTheNikonGirl]

Great suggestions

[@dougbeacham5930]

Planetary mixers are just not the right tool for kneading bread dough. They're great at spinning it, but that's not kneading. It's a design issue. Planetary mixers have their place in a kitchen but kneading heavy bread dough is not what they are best at. One way I've found to get around this issue is to put only 3/4 of the flour in to mix with my Kitchen Aid. This keeps the dough sticky enough to cling to the sides of the bowl and stretches the dough enough to get a decent kneading action. The remainder of the flour I then knead in by hand. I've been watching a ton of videos reviewing mixers lately because I want a larger capacity mixer for making bread dough that will actually knead the dough and not just spin it. This machine frequently referred to as a spiral mixer seems to be the best way to go but they are not cheap.

[@chewbacca7856]

Great video. As a simple home baker, I have learned that I should be kneading my bread dough by hand for this exact reason. The KA just doesn't do well with bread dough. When my KA decides to breakdown I will replace it with a spiral mixer. I wish I would have known about them but I have had my KA for maybe 20 years. It's gotta break sometime.

[@Starlight_GT]

It won't break that easily, but the KA is good for everything else just buy a spiral mixer and you an breath again

[@NguyenQA]

If he had used a spiral hook in the KA which can be purchased separately, it would have done a much better job - the C hook just isn't good for kneading dough. If you don't mind spending the dough, get the professional bowl lift KA 7qt or 8qt mixer with DC motor - you'll have beautifully kneaded dough in under 10 minutes every time, and they are also great for everything else, too.

[@edstar83]

[@yinzhen1975]

Thanks for this comparing, That’s why I changed my KitchenAid mixer to spiral 8kg Italian mixer , it’s really makes distinction when you made the dough 👍

[@icommandoi145]

Mini golf vs golf. That's a funny comparison. However if you've got the space then always buy the commercial product that's similar or close to the price of a smaller dough mixer. Most people don't have large space so choose the smaller dough mixer. Keep in mind the smaller dough mixer has a much smaller dry flour limit compared to the larger commercial unit so you can't have the same large volume in the smaller mixer.

[@sam-ww1wk]

That kitchenaid needs a spiral hook for a fair comparison. But, obviously, the dough mixer is better overall. Also, the Maxima site has it on sale for 750, and that KA is 300 on sale right now. 1250 and 400 not on sale.

[@johansneeuw5527]

Could those prices be related to import taxes? because on their official website here its for sale at €480 while the kitchenaid is at €370 during this weeks black friday sales, and €500 throughout the year.

[@SWMOWoodsman]

I don't recommend using a KA Artisan style mixer for yeast doughs. Their bowl lift machines work just fine for doughs. Extremely unfair comparison.

[@saroku]

This is an obvious example of several things: 1) KitchenAid cannot handle more than 850g of flour, 2) mobile workstations are not fit for a stable, safe work environment, 3) Spiral commercial mixer will always beat a KA

[@llllcryptxllll]

Change the hook for a spiral one and it will work much better

[@lungdunum]

It is amazing the ammount of errors you made in this dough recipe. first and most important you are using a very weak motor kitchen aid mixer which is not reccommended to make pizza dough, and secondly the quantity of flour, a complete dissaster..., with the right ingredients and the right mixer there is no need to mix longer than 10 minutes, otherwise you are killing the glutten structure because the temperature it will reach by mixing for almost double the time.

[@SWMOWoodsman]

Finally, someone agrees with me.

[@mikegraves3497]

This is exactly the way my kitchen aid preforms with any amount of dough over 500 grams, it’s not really intended for this kind of abuse, just ordered my Famag 8 ss - can’t wait for it to arrive !

[@csabas46]

How does the Famag work? Are you happy with it?

[@TEDodd]

In the USA the 5qt bowl lift sells for about the same as the Artisan tilt head. The bowl lift comes with a proper spiral dough hook and a 525W motor (not 325W). it easily kneads 1600g dough, nothing like you show with the tilt head. I regularly do it. I don't have to add the flour slow. All the water, then the salt, then the flour and finally the yeast (though I normally use sourdough starter). Turn on to speed 1 till it's shaggy, then 3 or 4 for ~10 min. Any bread you can think of.

[@vanitylaviscount3097]

I don’t understand why people who want to make dough buy the artisan when it isn’t strong enough to knead heavy doughs and like you said the artisan and the pro 5 plus are the same price, which is odd, but so is the way kitchenaid nickels and dimes it’s customers. How is this video a fair comparison? Idk.

[@TEDodd]

@@vanitylaviscount3097 it's not a fair comparison. A generic multipurpose tool vs a specialized tool. And the worst example of that generic tool.

[@ToddWilson-wb8fx]

I like most have a KA. Works well, Ill mix the flour water till incorporated together then let sit 15 minutes to hydrate. Then mix on setting 1 or tops 2 for 10 minutes (ball should form and pull away from bowl around 6 or 7 minutes or so depending). Let resy hand knead for a minute do a set or two of stretch and folds. Works fine for me but that seriously is still one nice dough mixer for sure!

[@Frxdy]

You should read the load limits of the Kitchenaid. This is a poor comparison.

[@Useyourbrainandthink]

An excellent video! Exactly the reason why I resisted to buy such a kitchen machine on the left side (even when my wife wanted to have one). It may be useful for many things (except dough!)..

[@anthonynaccarato8995]

The Kitchenaid isn’t kneading the dough. It’s caught in the hook and is just spinning. I’ve been messing around with pizza dough for about 15 years now in the KitchenAid is just a multipurpose machine that is great for all kinds of things, but in terms of dough itself, it definitely has a hard time unless you do a small amount. I just blew a commercial KitchenAid mixer doing 1.3 kg of flour on a 60% hydration pizza dough. My spiral mixer on the other hand doesn’t work half as hard because of the design. The whole dough is never placing a load on the hook at one time, so the machine is never under as much load.

[@supermike2000]

Exactly the comparison I was looking for - thank you for doing this!

[@verticostate]

Thanks for this, albeit longer video of mixing dough then most videos out there. This is a way more realistic image on what it takes to make dough at home using consumer equipment.

[@TEDodd]

Disagree with it being realistic. It's nothing like my bread making whether 50% hydration or 80%. I routinely mix 1000-1600g of dough with my KA. Water, salt, flour, starter all in the bowl. Stir in 1 til mixed then knead on 3-4 for 8-15 min. No fussing, no gradually adding flour.

[@gemrouf]

If you want good results using the kitchen aid use the the batter attachment first. Its an multi-purpose mixer, not a dedicated dough machine.

[@anthonyjannace4410]

There's no contest between the two types of machines; the spiral mixer is superior. A tip for its use: employ ice water and limit the mixing time to a maximum of 12 minutes, as the dough will heat up otherwise.

[@aljames7082]

Great video! The difference is huge! I was wondering what size and brand your sipral mixer is. Thanks.

[@Randel1966]

I think a Kitchenaid professional with a spiral hook would be a better comparison. Also it’s best to weigh all ingredients.

[@Amybnuy]

what speed is it set to? how much pizza dough is this? hmm. maybe I should go for the bowl lift model afterall.

[@christianw2923]

If you want to make a lot of pizza dough, then the bigger device is the better one from kitchenaid. The larger one has an attachment that kneads the dough onto the floor. Here the comparison is really weak. The right device can only dough. Make egg white with it :D

[@lemagreengreen]

Surprised how affordable the Maxima is, it's obviously too big for most peoples home kitchens but it's not far from the price of a Kitchenaid and a lot heavier duty while doing a more thorough job of kneading dough. I find with most kitchen stand mixers I dangerously have to jam in a stiff spatula to force the dough off the hook and to knead properly, it's not recommended but it works if you're careful. I always thought a dough bowl with a plate standing out inside the bowl that does a similar job to my spatula would help these kitchen machines knead dough, it'd knock it off the hook better.

[@Bluemoon1-h3w]

Well I had the kitchen aid artisan and 2nd use making dough @ 500g per time it broke down and screeching and motor won’t work . I do not recommend kitchenaid whatsoever, not made for dough making that’s for sure. !!

[@SashineB]

Their mixers are not what they used to be. Years ago, they were were quite strong, but now they can't handle bread dough well.

[@miamivice966]

I use the 8 Quart commercial Kitchen Aid. It makes a fine dough, and doesn't even get warm. The "civilian" Kitchen Aid mixers use plastic gears and are not intended for heavy usage. I burned up 3 of them before I discovered that.

[@Spinlayer]

I think that the kitchenaid caused the earthquake that activates the volcano in La Palma.

[@inspector_7152]

The Kitchen Aid is a great home device for many applications. I've got one myself. Bur for dough making it is absolutely not suited compared to a spiral mixer like the MSM 8. Look at the doughs that pizzaiolos make in a spiral mixer. stretchable to as thin as a sheet. You'll never get such a result with the Kitchenaid. I speak from experience as hobby pizzaiolo...😊

[@RoyMcAvoy]

True. This video serves as a warning for anyone who wants a dough mixer for bread/pizza no waste their money on a planetary mixer.

[@810bakery]

Its not comparable because the dough capacity is not the same. The kitchen aid is lower capacity than the spiral.

[@mikesr3011]

I see your point and agree but it is not really a fair comparison. If you're mixing the same exact amount of dough in both mixers there's no doubt that the MSM 8 is going to leave a 5 qt KitchenAid in the dust. It's like putting a Volkswagen Bug up against a Ferrari in a quarter mile race! Even the larger KA mixers are questionable compared to a spiral mixer. They are just not that reliable for heavy duty dough mixing. I certainly do appreciate your showing of the quality of the Maxima so thank you for that. It is a really nice looking mixer. I haven't heard of that brand. I just finished watching a video on another spiral mixer Famag which is very similar to the Max. Either one would mix a large quantity of dough with ease as you demonstrated. The only advantage a more traditional mixer would have over a spiral mixer is the ability to mix cake batter, cookie dough, whip cream & egg whites, etc. Other than that the spiral mixer beats the pants off the KA and others if your looking for a straight dough machine and nothing else (providing you have the cash and the counter space!). Thank you for the comparison.

Have you had your KA for long? I've had mine since 1989 and it still works beautifully, just like when I bought it. However, after reading one-star reviews on KitchenAid's own site, I don't think I would buy a new one. Whirlpool has made changes to the original designs.

[@valemodsVD]

Come on, you can't compare a spiral mixer with a small kitchenaid with a "C" type hook. At least compare a kitchenaid model that has a spiral dough hook (such as the professional 600 series). I own both and you have to use the planetary in a completely different way like adding water slowly so the "carousel" will loosen up and absorb the water better, forming a better smooth gluten etc.. However, you cracked me up with the caption "knead" and "ride a carousel" 😂

Please can spiral mixer do both cakes and dough perfectly. I want to know

[@valemodsVD]

@@augustinaamo-annan1678 spiral mixers are mostly for harder doughs like bread, pizza, croissants etc. For cakes you are better off using a KitchenAid or any planetary stand mixer with beater attachments.

[@augustinaamo-annan1678]

Thank you so much for this,because am about purchasing one .

I don't know much about these things, am grateful for your help

Essa masseira grande é top e tem muita eficiência na sova da massa o que já não acontece com a Kitchenaid Artisan , porém a melhor mesmo é a poderosa Bosch Universal Plus da Alemanha .

[@czerox16]

what's the min dough you can knead with the maxima? thx

[@rendercole]

It says 1.5kg of dough so I reckon, minimum flour quantity would be 1kg

[@IlFratto]

I made some excellent dough from 55 till 90% of hydration with kitchen aid and spiral dough machine. We have to know how machine works

[@sallyfischer1204]

Please use a more stable table.

Gut das meine Frau Küchenmaschinen hasst aber mein Brot liebt 😝 Ich verbacke jeden Sonntag etwa 2,3 kg Roggenteig und da war dieses Video schon recht hilfreich

[@emmanuelvuillemard893]

I have the maxima MSM 8 too, and it's great for the dough. My kitchenaid now just serve me to make cream or creme patissière or eggs white etc etc. By the way, the unique thing i'm a litle sad about the maxima is the cleaning we can't up the spiral part.

[@MrMohamedabdella]

Is Maxima an Italian brand ?

[@vince-1973]

How many RPM is set KA and how many RPM is set MSM8?

[@hatchitaha4474]

Msm 8 : - spiral -> 159 RPM - bol -> 21 RPM

[@michaelprozonic]

can the Maxima make whipped cream topping? shred cheese? grate cheese? grind meat? crush tomatoes? stuff sausages? make ice cream? spiral slice vegetables? I have a Kitchen Aid 7qt Pro model and I make a lot of pizza and bread with it for our family. The Kitchen Aid Artisan model is the smallest of their lineup at just 4.5 pts. It is more suitable for making cakes and cookies. Just stepping up to the 5qt Pro line is a big difference. what a stupid comparison

[@johansneeuw5527]

Jeez maybe that why he has pizza dough in the title? because its not an overall comparison. And it is specifically directed at people that want to use these machines for heavy doughs...
