Amazon.com: Famag IM-8S Spiral Dough Mixer, Arctic White: Home & Kitchen

Italian-made Famag spiral mixers are world renowned for outstanding baking results. As Famag's exclusive importer, Pleasant Hill Grain is proud to offer these high performance mixers! Engineered expressly for ideal dough-mixing and kneading results, Famag mixers feature a spiral agitator that remains stationary while the bowl rotates, bringing the dough to the stainless steel dough hook with each revolution. This action is exceptionally thorough and uniform, while avoiding both overworking and overheating of the dough. An integrated offset breaker bar ensures ideal metering of the dough into the spiral hook. This three-way kneading process is exceptionally thorough and fast, yet the low impact and widely distributed dough contact of the spiral hook completely avoids overworking and overheating of the dough. Wide-range, infinitely variable speed adjustment lets you dial in precisely the action you want. The spiral dough hook operates at 80-240 RPM. Famag mixers feature heavy duty chain overhead drive, with a high torque dual-belt final drive. FAG sealed industrial ball bearings are used for exceptionally long life. Construction is robust throughout, as attested to by the mixer’s substantial 77 lb weight. Epoxy powder coating over a steel cabinet protects the handsome appearance of your Famag mixer. This Famag IM-8S mixer features a high lift drive head and removable bowl. Thanks to the spiral hook’s action, mixtures that overtax other designs—such as pizza or bagel dough—are handled easily, quickly and efficiently in the Famag spiral dough mixer. Doughs of all kinds, from heavy to high-hydration artisan doughs, come out smooth, silky and perfectly developed. Famag's IM-8S mixes and kneads up to 17.6 lbs (8kg) of dough at 60% hydration (or more at higher hydration), but also handles batches as small as 2.2 lbs. (1kg). Capacity of the stainless steel bowl is 11.5 (11L) qts.
