Thank you for this review. I killed my kitchenaid making bagel dough this weekend. There's a plastic gear that will strip if you go beyond speed 2 with strong dough, so best to knead by hand after the initial mix. Feeding the Bosch from above is a huge plus, and the 800 watts of power is great.
I had a Bosch for a while… best mixer ever! I ended up giving it to one of My daughters-in-law because I just didn’t do the amount of heavy mixing to justify such a powerful appliance. I now use my old Kitchenaid.
Great video. I just bought the Bosch…and I went crazy and just bought all of the accessories that go with it. I got so fed up with my stand mixer just mashing everything up on the sides and me having to keep stopping the mixer to scrape the sides. When I saw that the Bosch has little scrapers that attach to whatever attachment is being used it immediately spoke to me. Then I saw all of the reviews. Everyone who owns one seems to love it!
The Ankarsum can cost anywhere from 700 to 900 dollars my Bosch cost around 400 bucks. I don't know if it will last a life time but its a heavy duty mixer and is very light. but I don't think any machine can beat my Cuisinart. it can do almost anything that my Bosch or Kitchen Aid will do it without attachments. the kitchen aid is over 25 years now. I but I bought a larger one and it was lucky to last 2 years before it had a problem, I like the machine but they don't make them like they used too.
you are so funny... thanks for the chuckles!. i just started this journey and honestly, don't need a big anything, however, it seems that the bosch is the only one that has a top so that crapola isn't spraying everywhere. we do the dalgona coffee around here and wanted something to spin that w/o flying everywhere.... and not have to stand for 8 minutes while it whips up. now i'm not sure what to do.... but thank you for your vid.... i was wondering how that darned thing worked ;-)
I just got my bosch. I make sourdough recipes. But haven't used it yet. Can I use the bosch for recipes that aren't giant still?? I know it's good for bulk recipes but I hope I can use it just for any
I just got one and I'm scouring all these Bosch review videos to find out if anyone else's sounds like a plane is taking off in the kitchen... Mine is really loud. I'm almost wondering if it's faulty bc surely not everyone is okay with the sound of this motor...
Can your Bosch crush ice ? How about it’s it a meat grinder does the Bosch grade cheese does the Bosch make ice cream? You can buy many attachments for the kitchen aid .
I just bought one too! Just today. No more kitchenaid ever again especially since China owns them now. Anyway I bought the meat grinder as well, mainly to grind bacon fat with the venison we harvest each hunting season. I have a huge kitchen and plan to leave Bosch on the counter. I plan to make lots of bread because It grosses me out that store bought bread never molds. So I'm pretty excited about this mixer. Thanks for doing this review. I subbed your channel. 😀
Couldn't agree more. My 30 year old KitchenAid works fine but my 6 year old Pro 600 is loud and weak and I've had to replace the gears 3 times. My Bosch is soo much better than the KitchenAid and I have a few converts from my bread baking friends. KitchenAid is living off their past reputation (they were great 30-40-50 years ago. Now their only good for making a single box cake mix. Go Bosch!
Hi from the Scottish Highlands.. I trained as a chef and from my perspective this mixer is good..I have the stainless steel bowl apparently the latest version that came from Germany..This mixer for most dose what it clams ..However I would dispute any claims that it is the best mixer!! I am currently SAVING FOR THE ANKERARSRUM MIXER.. I have reviewed many presentations and with a 7 year warranty at least on the moter I will eventually make my BOCH a back up mixer...Research the ANKERARSRUM and see what you think..Kindness your way.. Lochness Scottish Highlands..
I have an Ankarsrum. It's great! But I had to retire mine because I have a 10 quart commercial mixer that runs circles around it. The Bosch would be a lost cause and a total failure in my collection, only because of one 10 quart Berkel that the Bosch wouldn't be able to keep up with.
OK, about 50 years of experience, and I'm a mechanic. I took the bottom off, just to have a look. First time in my family, that someone looked inside. You could sell me a Bosch, new, with a 5 day warranty. Warranties are pretty much useless on a Bosch. They DON'T break down! 7 units, close to 75 years total, and no problems. steve
Pro tip: add your water, oil, honey, yeast, and about two cups of water and let it sit for 20 mins. It develops more flavor that way and it also allows you to make sure that your yeast is still good. If your yeast hasn't expired, you'll see bubbles and it'll smell nice (like honey, yeast, and wheat) when the 20 mins are up. Once you've gone through that pre-ferment, then add the salt and remaining flour one cup at a time until each cup is completely incorporated into the mixture. You'll know you've added enough flour once the dough balls up and starts to separate from the sides of the container (this is true for both the plastic and stainless steel bowls). Then knead for 10 mins and you should be good to take it out, form the loaves, and leave them to rise a second time in their molds. Looking for the dough to pull away gives you the perfect hydration for your dough almost every time. This is the same for all wheat flours (both white, whole wheat, and mixed). This doesn't apply to other grains like rye which generally require different water to flour ratios.
I have been using a Bosch Universal since 1980…and I can assure you that you can make smaller quantum’s of bread, cookies…or what ever. You can even whip one large egg white into 1 and 1/2 cups of whipped egg whites. Just try it !
My parents purchased a Bosch Universal, plastic and metal bowls. I think it was 400 dollars or so. MY Bosch, same model, I found it at Deseret Industries. Six whole dollars! My siblings all have the same thing. Well most. My big brother's KA was in the shop, the third time, this year. Loaned him mine, and he did NOT want to return it! steve
There’s a Bosch mixer for sale on Marketplace for $250 plus $20 shipping. I would love to buy it but was looking at your review. I have a Kitchenaid (not the tilt and stand) and I feel like the dough never kneads. Should I get it??
Rob in Texas here. I love the fact that you are just being yourselves kids and all. You are just a great example of a good family and what families should be. My wife and I raised 6 kids with her 3 and my 3. We are LDS as well. Your content is not something that will ever raise a million views but great nonetheless. Keep doing what you love and if for no other reason you will have a journal of you life and your kids can look back and appreciate what a great mom and dad you parents are. Thank you for letting us look into the window of your home and may God bless you!
