Yeah Kitchen Aid mixers are super expensive in Australia.I really
desperately wanted one as well as my Thermomix at one point. I am not sure
why, now. I rarely bake (as in cakes, biscuits, slices, pastries) so would
rarely use it, and all the attachments I wanted (like the sausage attachment)
were gazillions extra.
Would have been a waste for me...

Hi Kelly,
They do pop up on sale from time to time, but I can’t justify $700 or so.
The bread maker is $329 so a much easier sell to the financial controller.

Haha, yes I know. Long story.
Probably can't justify the expense of the kitchen aid, but will see.
You do realise that if it wasn't for Bill Gates, apple would have gone years
ago...

Oh ha ha… well you realise YOU don’t have to use the Apple product? 😉
Dohn and I each have an iPad, iPhone and MacBook Pro. We took them all to
Perth with us recently, AND the Dell laptops we each have for work. Quite
the ensemble…
I hate Microsoft with the same passion you hate Apple! And let’s not forget
Adobe… I am still livid about what they did to me when I cancelled my CC
subscription but that’s not for a public forum. Suffice to say, they made
promises, broke them and in doing so broke laws, admitted it, said sucks to
be you and then stuck to their corrupt guns. I’m still tossing up whether I
can be bothered to take it further. I have all the screenshots and chat
transcripts.
Anyway, back to bread. My advice is to BOTH:
buy Nina a Kitchen Aid mixer anyway
make the no-knead bread recipe I posted (which was from NYT Cooking, and I
haven’t tried it, but it should be good – has rave reviews).
Win win!
Vicki. :-)

Hi Vicki,
I'll look into the Bourke St bakery one. I don't own a mixer apart from a
little hand one from the UK. Nina does all the baking here and I was going
to buy her a kitchen aid one last year after her back surgery. Louise and I
had a robust discussion which I lost and had to buy her an iPad instead. I
hate apple products so this was a bitter pill to swallow...

Hi Justin,
I haven’t owned a bread machine for a couple of years. The kids complained
about the crust (the best bit!) and I eventually stopped using it. Boo. (It
also left an annoying hole in the middle. Pfft.)
I use the Thermomix to knead the olive oil bread I’ve been making. You could
use any electric mixer with a strong enough motor I guess, especially one
with a dough attachment.
But what I suggest is trying the no-knead bread I also posted a recipe for.
When I did sourdough I did a no-knead version after trying one that required
kneading (which, like the olive oil bread, was from the Bourke Street Bakery
book). The no-knead version was fantastic! Just let it sit overnight and
then do what you gotta do the next day without any kneading at all. The
results were as good if not better. I saw no reason to dirty the Thermomix
after trying it.
Having said that, the bread machine you are looking at looks fantastic!
They’ve come a long way in the last 20 years or so!
Vicki. :-)

Hi Vicki,
I’ve been looking at your bread quite enviously and was wondering if you
have ever used a bread maker? I like the idea of fresh bread but I’m too
lazy to do the kneading. I’ve been looking at this one
https://www.panasonic.com/au/consumer/household/kitchen-appliances/bread-makers/sd-zb2512.html
so you can obviously make the bread, but I’m thinking about using it do
make the dough (ie do all the hard work), stick it in a banneton and then
finish it in the oven.

Yeah I’d probably do that too if I had a chest freezer (depending on how big
it was!). The freezer in our fridge-freezer is too small as it is… I’m
expecting 10 kg of beef next week, which isn’t that much really but there’s
not a skerrick of room in the freezer and I’m wondering what I’m going to do
with it. 😂
