7-Liter Stainless Steel Bowl

Perfect for kneading dough, mixing cake batters, or whipping cream, its generous capacity is ideal for small and large batches. For dough preparation, use the Dough Roller, the tool from the original 1940s design, or the Dough Hook, for efficient and thorough kneading.

• Handles Doughs with up to 1.5 Liters of Liquid
  The bowl can accommodate doughs with up to 1.5 liters of liquid.
• 7-Liter Capacity
  With a total volume of 7 liters, the Stainless Steel Bowl can knead, whip, and mix small and large batches with ease.

Dough Roller

The Dough Roller is a tool from the 1940s design and has been used in Sweden since then for most kneading, whipping, and mixing. The Dough Roller uniquely mimics the gentle action of hand kneading for developing strong gluten strands in your dough. It also stands out for efficiently whipping cream and egg whites and mixing cake batters and cookie doughs. You can use it to whip potatoes, mix ground meat for meatballs or sausage, and more. 

• Rhythmic Kneading Technique
  A unique kneading method that replicates the rhythmic motion of a baker’s fist, delivering excellent results while treating the dough gently.
• Promotes Gluten Development
  Encourages even kneading and optimal gluten development for improved dough structure and texture.
• Versatile Dough Handling
  Recommended for small and large dough batches, including doughs with a high liquid content.

Dough Hook

The Dough Hook is an alternative kneading style that works the dough by pulling it, unlike traditional dough hooks. It’s used primarily for heavier bread that requires more power.

• Ideal for Heavy Doughs
  Perfect for dense, heavy doughs such as rye, wholemeal, bagel, pretzel and brioche, helping to develop the gluten effectively.
• Recommended for Large Doughs

Dough Knife

Use the Dough Roller and the Dough Hook with the Dough Knife to move the dough toward the middle of the bowl. By continuously scraping the bowl, you ensure that all ingredients are fully incorporated, and the dough becomes smooth and even.

Spatula 

Use the Spatula to easily gather all the dough. Its specially shaped edge fits perfectly into the corners of the bowl, ensuring that all the dough is incorporated. The Spatula’s notch fits the Dough Roller, making cleanup easy. It is also ideal for dividing dough and portioning buns.

• Helps to Incorporate Dough
  Specially shaped edge helps make sure dough is fully mixed
• Dough Divider
  Works perfectly for dividing buns and dough.

Proofing Lid

Place the Proofing Lid on the Stainless Steel Bowl while the dough is rising, preventing the dough from drying out and ensuring an even proof.

• Protects the Dough
  Prevents the dough from drying out.
• Even Proofing
