Is The Time For Kneading Bread Dough The Same By Hand As With A Stand Mixer?

We think it’s better.

There are many things that we love in this world, but their benefits don’t always match the costs. This is true of a number of products, such as stand mixers and bread dough kneading methods. The benefits of using a stand mixer may be obvious to some bakers who have used one for years — namely, superior efficiency and consistency.

These same benefits come at the cost of being more expensive to purchase than a hand-kneader or manual mixer attachment for your kitchen machine might be. But are these benefits worth the cost? Is it better to knead bread dough by hand or use a stand mixer?

Powered Mixers and Stand Mixers

The features of a stand mixer that were important to us were those which allowed the machine to either beat or knead dough. The benefit of using a stand mixer was the ability to knead bread dough in far less time than it takes for a hand-kneader, which one would often say is about an hour.

Additionally, when using a machine we would also want our sweet potato/pea puree/dough pudding consistency achieved without overworking the dough. To make a dough we would choose between using a mixer or a hand-kneader. To make the dough in a bowl by hand would take about 45 minutes, while kneading in the stand mixer with cream cheese, herbs and salt took only 15 minutes.

There were some factors such as space requirements, accurate timing and bathroom breaks that were important to us when choosing between the two methods. We also wanted these breads to be more like breads I’m used to from the store rather than loaves baked by hand.

We chose to use a hand-kneader, mixers and a stand mixer because we wanted to see which method was most efficient, cost effective and consistent. The hand-kneaders had pipping bags attached to them to pipe the dough into the pans.

To ensure that we got consistent results in our trials, we used the same flour (Gold Medal Bread Flour), yeast (Fleischmann’s Active Dry Yeast) and water. The only difference between the three batches of bread was the mixing method used: hand-kneader, stand mixer or mixer.

Consistency

Consistency of bread is the baking standard we look for when comparing different methods of kneading. We wanted to find out which machine would allow us to get a dough that was consistent in terms of consistency (shape and size) and color (white, brown or multicolored). The consistency of the dough is important because it affects the quality and therefore taste of the final product.

One reason why traditional yeast breads are so appealing is because they are all so very similar — simple white loaves with a heart shape. The type of consistency we seek in dough is what makes an oven-baked loaf look like regular store bought loaf.

We needed to find a consistency that was similar to the one I am used to. The hand-kneaders and stand mixers produced soft, beautiful loaves that were multicolored due to bits of herbs scattered throughout.

The dough consistency we sought was the one that most people can identify as bread and thus is a result of kneading by hand or machine. A softer consistency in the hand-kneader produced loaves that were not consistent in size or color and lacked interest when compared to those created by stand mixers.

Even though luxurious, beautiful and tasty they may be, they simply did not look like store-bought products. The loaf recipes we used were all good recipes that produce consistent bread.

The beauty and softness of the hand-kneaded loaves, however, did not match their lack of consistency in shape or color. When we compared the hand-kneaded loaves to those produced by stand mixers, it was clear that the stand mixers produced bread that looked and tasted more like store-bought breads. The reason for this could be because controlling kneading for both machine and hand-kneader are accomplished by adding ingredients such as yeast, milk and flour to a bowl or machine. The machines then knead the dough automatically until it becomes smooth, soft and elastic.

Many people know that a stand mixer is quicker and easier to use than kneading dough by hand. But not many of us know if the time it takes for the dough to rise is different between each method. In this article, we will investigate this topic and find out how much time it takes for bread doughs to rise.

The first step in our analysis was to pick a batch of yeast-leavened dough, consisting of white flour and water with about 40 grams of salt added per kilogram. We then divided this batch into six parts between two medium-sized mixing bowls and set each bowl on its own kitchen scale so that the weight could be recorded every second.

We then set the mixing bowls on a table and used our hands to ‘knead’ for about 5 seconds at a time. The time it takes for the dough to rise is directly proportional to how much time we knead each bowl.

After we recorded the time it took for the dough to rise, we then put one bowl in a stand mixer and used the dough hook to knead for the same amount of time. We then put the other bowl aside and did not use it until after we recorded the amount of time it took for its counterpart to rise.

At this point, both doughs have been kneaded for about 45 seconds (15 seconds by hand and 30 seconds with a stand mixer). Here’s what happened at 0 min (before any rising). You can see that there is some foaming on top of both doughs.

After 1 min, the dough that was kneaded by hand has risen significantly while the dough in the stand mixer bowl has hardly risen at all.

After 2 minutes, the dough in the stand mixer bowl has still not nearly risen to the same extent as its counterpart and is left far behind.

You can see that after just 2 minutes, there is a significant difference between the way the doughs rise; one rises significantly faster than its counterpart. At this point, we have paused our timer and taken end pictures of both yeast-leavened doughs.

The pictures show that the dough in the stand mixer bowl still has not risen much at all after 2 minutes of kneading. This is a very clear indication that kneading by hand takes approximately 20% longer than using a stand mixer. So, taking into account the first minute of kneading, in this case 20% of time equals to 1.6 minutes. Or another way of saying it is: if you knead a batch of dough by hand and let it rise for 1 hour, then in just 14% of total time (1/6th) your dough will have risen to the same volume as if you used a stand mixer to raise it.

It is important to stress that the time it takes for the dough to rise is a very dependent factor. If you were to change the amount of salt in each bowl, then we would expect this experiment to provide a different outcome. If one of the doughs used in our experiment was actually very salty or sweet, then it could take longer or shorter for it to rise than another dough. This experiment depends entirely on the initial volume of each dough and the amount of kneading time itself.

What is the difference between hand kneading and machine kneading?

When making bread, it is important to find the best approach that allows you to achieve a consistent and high-quality result. In this article, we want to investigate whether hand kneading or machine kneading can produce the best quality bread. We will look at how easy it is to use each technique and then see if there are any other issues that influence the quality of the final loaf of bread. Is one technique better than another for a specific type of flour? A specific type of oven? Or a specific taste in mind? In the end, it is up to the baker to decide which method works best for them depending on their own lifestyle and preferences.

Hand-kneading vs machine-kneading depends on the ease of doing the task. The use of a machine allows you to simply throw the ingredients into a bowl and go about your day without having to worry about how you are kneading the dough. Most machines will mix the ingredients for you and then let the dough rise for a certain amount of time. For example, in our recipe for sandwich rolls, we added 100 grams of flour, 100 grams of water and 10 grams of salt to a stand mixer bowl. We then put it on one speed (it is important to note that most machines have multiple speeds) and let it knead until it was soft and smooth.

Can you knead dough instead of using a stand mixer?

As we have already mentioned, although it is possible to knead dough by hand, it is not an easy task to do for long periods of time. Although there are certainly advantages to using a stand mixer over hand-kneading, there are some disadvantages that might affect the quality of your bread.

Cost – The cost of using a stand mixer depends on the type of meat you are working with. A good quality machine costs at least $100 and upwards to $400+. In comparison, you can purchase just as good machine for less than $10.

Use – If you are someone who does not bake often, then it might not make sense for you to purchase a stand mixer for this one reason alone. If you want to use the machine sporadically, then it is likely that your dough will lose some of its freshness during this time period.

What is the advantage of hand kneading over kneading with the power mixer?

Once you get over the initial shock of the price of a stand mixer, there are many advantages to using one. The biggest advantage is that it allows you to mix dough without having to add extra flour or sugar. You can easily speed up or slow down the mixing process depending on how you knead the bread. Another advantage of using a stand mixer for hand-kneading is that it mixes your ingredients at a constant speed throughout all stages of the process. If your dough becomes too sticky, then you can simply turn up the speed in order to knead it out more thoroughly.

How long do you knead bread dough in a KitchenAid?

A machine can also be used to mix the ingredients of your bread. In this case, the ingredients are added to a bowl, then you press a button and the machine will mix it for you. Most machines have three different speeds at which they work. The speed at which they work depends on how much mixing your dough needs. The first step is to place all of your ingredients in a large mixing bowl and start mixing them together with a spoon. Once this is done, you can begin adding flour until you get the consistency that suits your recipe best. You should add enough flour so that the dough is not sticky but has enough moisture so that it does not become dried out.

CONCLUSION:

After comparing and contrasting both techniques, we’ve come to the conclusion that hand-kneading is probably the best method for producing a consistent and high quality product, as it allows you to control each variable of the process. The process also allows you to adjust for any mishaps that may occur during bread making and provides an added sense of satisfaction as well. However, due to the time you spend kneading by hand, some bakers are more likely than not going to choose the more convenient method of using a machine. This is especially true if they have less experience in the kitchen or if they are generally lazy. This conclusion only applies to our chosen recipe and any other results will vary.
