Does it knead to make a dough? How?

It says it makes dough on the box. I have never tried to but I am thinking that you use the tool for chopping. The manual should have some information on it you would think. Sorry I could not be of much help but I just got mine and never used it yet.Good luck I hope you find a way to do it.

It is a food processor not a mixer. It probably could make pie dough although the cup capacity would limit the amount of dough that could be made.

NO, you will need a mixer, I recommend Kitchen aid Pro Line Series or the Professional 600

To be honest, I haven't attempted kneading dough. I use it mainly to prep vegetables,grate/shred cheese, and mixing liquids.

The kneading blade is metal.Sometimes gets stuck in bread and needs to be manually removed.You also get a spare kneading blade.

As far as I know, the machine will handle just about anything you can throw at it. I make bread all the time. If the dough is very wet, you would probably use the paddle rather than the dough hook, but I would start with the dough hook to see.

Not quite fully automatic. Once it's done kneading the dough you must remove the dough block slide. Then you have to cut the pasta to the desired length as it's extruded. This machine works VERY well!

You can make the dough, let it rise for a bit, take it out and bake it. My daughter does this for cinnamon rolls.

No but I've made a ton of pizza's on it. My dough recipe is a winner--4 C flour, 1 1/2 C water, 1T Salt 1T bakers yeast, 1 T brown sugar. I put it in breadmaker and press "9" for dough. This makes four 13" pizzas. When pressed for time i just buy the Boboli crusts at the grocery store. you can find a ton of recipes on line / youtube. One of the best food investments i've made (ranks among espresso machine, Weber gas grill, Boos cutting board and Pastry scraper)

Yes, it does. I also use it to make rotis. They come out great as long as I can get the consistency right for the dough.

kat has the recipe on the box, but it's not particularly useful. The dough is very stiff. I've had much better luck cutting the flour to 2 cups and using 2 eggs and 1 cup of water. 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp nutmeg if you wish. With the 2/2/1 mix, the dough falls easily through the holes in the machine.

Not necessarily. I don't have the "dough hook", but have the standard hook and the whips. To make dough, you can use the regular hook. It depends, too, on what kind of bread--do you mean yeast bread or quick bread? Using the whips for small volumes doesn't work well, and I assume you'd use them for quick bread. If you are doing a yeast bread, you should be fine. Again, this also relates to how large your loaf will be. I never make a loaf of bread that is under 1.5#--only because I personally don't think it is worth my time. So maybe if you mean those little 3/4# loaves, you may run into more problems. Why not just make about 3# worth of dough, then bake the loaves, and double bag the one you aren't using right now and freeze it? You have only one time to clean up after two loaves of bread then, too.

You can knead bread on this certainly or make pizza on it. But if you are making pizza on it and kneading pizza dough on it it will be getting covered with flour and bits of dough will stick to it and you do not want that. It needs to be clean and smooth and oiled.

sure it can ! just put in your ingredients and let it do the mixing for you. Sometimes I make the dough in the machine and bake it in the oven instead of the machine. It's nice to use it that way too, kind of keeps the mess in one place.

Yes you can! You can make all kinds of dough and even jams. This machine has a dough cycle so you can use it only for making dough if you prefer to shape and bake in the oven. A good book to get along with it is The Bread Lover's Bread Machine Cookbook by Beth Hensperger. It has so many easy recipes and has a great pizza dough one. I use this machine constantly and love it.

This mixer if used properly will knead a loaf of bread, make cake, cookies, whip cream, etc. It is not a heavy duty mixer but it does the job for the casual baker.

I never tried that because I do it the old fashioned way. My hands tell me when the moisture in the dough is OK. Screw this tech stuff. Much more enjoyable folding and pushing dough around with your hands. Try it. You might like it. Ed Lange

Yes! You can use it for homemade dough.. It is the best pizza I have ever had!!! I use this pizza maker once a week!!!

No, I made bread by hand only with this flour. I do not own a bread machine. My favorite recipe was where you let the majority of the flour soak over night. I would soak 3 cups of flour in 1 cup warm water(sometimes throwing in a handful of oatmeal or flax) then the next morning add the rest of the ingredients. It also seemed to rise better but I did knead for 15 minutes. Totally flour I used in the recipe was approx. 4 cups with a bit more for kneading. I got 2 8x5 loaves out of it. I found the recipe via google.

It really does not have a dough only setting but you can let it mix, do a rise and remove it at any time then and make like a French loaf shape..I did that today. Worked! Also it beeps between settings so it alerts you to the times to either add, or remove the mixing blade before the second rise and baking...I do like it, the only thing is it is tall and for a short person hard to read the settings...
