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
I find the Bosch Universal Plus with SS dough hook has consistent mixing times as commercial spiral mixer. I have been scaling done commercial recipes to 1 to 2 kg and mixing times specified in commercial recipe gave very nice results.
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
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!
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 bought Bosch's cheaper cousin; Nutrimill. Got it during the holiday's with some freebies like ice cream & waffle cone maker. I also purchased the paddles. It works exactly the same as Bosch & I absolutely love my Nutrimill. What I learned: After you've added your flour, you may need to add more (little by liitle) until it cleans the sides of the bowl. Then start the kneading clock. Kneading can take more like 10 to 12 mins. Do the window pane test. If it breaks, knead some more. Also oil your hands to remove & shape your dough. This avoids all the sticking. Have fun practicing & learning you mixers. It's therapeutic & the house smells awesome. ♡♡ Be well.
Where did you order for Nutrimill from during the holidays?? I will be looking this year. I love the Bosch but I don't make gigantic batches of anything, so I don't feel I should spend the extra money on it. I am curious if all the Bosch accessories work with the Nutrimill. I have heard many of them do.
@@brynnking5184 Hi Brynn, if you go to Bosch site or even Nutrimill site you can find it. Note, it can still make big batches but it's less expensive. It can use most of Bosch accessories but not all, just check out site to familiarize yourself. I'm actually thinking of getting a Bear Dough Maker that's smaller but I'm still researching. Anyway, I hope I was able to help. Be well.
I have a Bosch Compact I use for smaller batches that stays on the counter all the time and a Concept Solitaire for big batches. The Solitaire has a digital timer, which is a feature I really wish they had carried over into the newer ones. It's super handy for things you don't want to overmix and you don't have to babysit it.
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, too, wondered why they put an "M" on the dial instead of "P". It turns out, there's a tiny blip in the manual that says "M" stands for "Momentary Pulse".
Yeah, the older videos on the Bosch mention that the "M" is for momentary too. I love this mixer and was about to get one when I happened upon a Ankarsrum at an incredible price. That is the only thing the Ank does not have, a pulse/moment setting. I can do it with a fast turn on/off the power the power. I now adore my Ank and all the wonderful things it makes, especially the soft breads, but talk about expensive attachments, theirs are great but so very expensive.
An impressive machine, no doubt- if one does enough baking to justify it. For me, my veteran Kitchen Aid 45 year old bowl-lift model handles anything I throw at it (and always has). But actually using it less, now that I’ve moved into the no-knead world.
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 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.
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. 😀
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??
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!
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 ;-)
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.
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 bought one a few years ago (I do the baking) for my wife and I. We call it "Gods mixer". It'll do FIVE tollhouse batches AT ONCE. You don't even have to stagger wet with dry ingredients if you "only" do four and your butter is soft. It's unreal. Last year I did 8 batches in less than an hour, used a little metal form, packed raw dough into the form to make scored rectangles, and gave out "break and bake" frozen cookie dough for Xmas to all the neighbors. It's. Nuts. Try to meringue with it. Seriously. Try a small batch of meringue. Just a few eggs. If you babysit it - yanno, tweak the speed as needed - it will FILL THAT WHOLE BOWL. Absolutely. Nuts. 🤯 The thing all the reviewers omit is because it has two OPPOSING paddles/whisks/etc. Their movement CANCELS OUT each other's vibration and centripetal force. S'why it's so much lighter. It won't TRY to "walk" on you. Kitchen aids weigh so much because they had no choice but to make the base outta cast iron, to help ameliorate the top-heavy gizmos desire to waltz itself off your countertop. Their solution worked... but at a 30 pound cost.
I have used my Grandmother's Kitchen aid for a LONG TIME. I am 85 and she died at 106 - mom is still alive at 104. In that time, I had to replace the rubber feet on the bottom of the mixer once and it is almost 100 yeas old. . I am sure that they could have come up with something lighter but If it ain't broke. I ain't gonna fix it. And I had 8 children - and 18 foster kids and I have 79 Grandchildren and even more Great Grandchildren. So when I built my house - there was a dedicated Kitchen counter space for the Mixer. It is officially part of the Family. Maybe the Bosch has advantages - so when the Kitchen AId needs replacing - MAYBE one of my Grandchildren will consider replacing it with something else.
Bosch is generally built to last - I have the smaller Mum version - just hater that extra accessories for it are a bit clunky , over priced and where I live hard to get as well- would love to see Bosch and Braun get together to do a new improved food processor- I bet it would be awesome!
Cute video. Your bread looked so yummy 😋 I very been looking at the compact bosch because it's just my husband and myself. It looks like a toy tho. I'm so use to my huge white kitchen aid and like you, I'd hate to see it in the closet, all by itself😪

Hey Mate, Is your bosch made in Slovenia, 1000W?
Made in Germany from the labelling and instruction manual.
Same here. Have them both. Won't bother with my KitchenAid unless less than 500 grams of flour.
Btw. Love the format of you video. Great work 👏👏🙌.
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!
Loved the video! That was neat to see how it worked!
3:27 the 'M' may stand for momentary as in a switch that only stays closed,or on, while you're holding it, or momentarily.
It stands for Manual.
I love your sense of humor 😁
I'm saving up for this after the breville hand mixer. Best of the best I've found so far.
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.
Did you get the bakers attachment or the basic attachments that come with the mixer is enough?
What a cute video. Interesting and informative.
I bought the smaller lighter weight Bosch mixer and love it, too. KitchenAid is on standby.
What do you think about the volume of it? Is it louder than other mixers or about the same?
Thanks for the review, think I'll try it. It's basically the same design as the Ankarsrum but less than half the cost.
I have the Bosch Mini since it meets all my needs. Had 2 kitchen aids that I gave away

Have you had any issues with the other plastic attachments breaking?
The ending clip 😂😂😂 I just treated myself and doing my first batch of bread!!

Luv the intro with Bosch .. 😂
I have the Compact mixer and LOVE it!! It’s effect size for me but I still want the big one some day.
That's great! I just learned about the smaller option.

The Chinese don't own Kitchenaid. Kitchenaid is owned by Whirlpool.
Whirlpool is not Chinese, nor do they make KitchenAid mixers there. They just degraded the quality while still making them in America.
Is the dough scraper differ from cookie scraper I don't understand mine came only with dough hook and whisk?
Please advise
Mine did NOT come with a recipe book😣
What I want to know is where the heck can u buy these mixers I live in ontario
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??
You won't regret getting a bosch.

Does your Bosch mixer is super super loud??? Mine is so loud I need to use it while I'm alone... :( Same as yours 800w
One Word, Ankarsrum :)
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 ;-)

Yup, Bosch has these attachments as well 👍🏼
Yes it does
M, stands for manual, maybe.
The "M" on the dial stands for momentary pulse
The secret is to keep working the dough. I usually work it for 15 minutes and never added flour
I paid a lot, but very happy with it
M in german is "Manuell" means: "manually" means: "you control it"....
Wow $400. Here in Canada I just bought mine on sale with bakers pack after tax $986.00. Free shipping.
I bought one a few years ago (I do the baking) for my wife and I. We call it "Gods mixer". It'll do FIVE tollhouse batches AT ONCE. You don't even have to stagger wet with dry ingredients if you "only" do four and your butter is soft. It's unreal.

M = “Momentary”
I think she is trying to Saratoga bosch because they didn't want her for an avertisment.
Got it on a Friday sent it back on a Monday, only 500W not 800W. bough an Ankarsrum spent MORE money BUT ALL S/S. It may work but not for me.
Bosch is absolutely worth the money if you bake a lot! I would have a Bosch any day instead of a Kit hen Aid.
❤
“M” is momentary if I remember correctly
Large yes but i make a lot of bread . I broke 3 KitchenAids before i got this one.
If only had had a pasta attachment
It does
I am reading that the plastics are not durable and breaking. Is this true?
Mine have not broken...at least not yet.
It is available with a stainless steel bowl if you want to spend the cash
@@pizzarat3275 yes, and it appears some stainless bowels are separating from the plastic base.
Mine is about 20 years old and it still looks and works like it was brand new and I use it quite a lot.
It no longer comes with a nice recipe book. It is now a gray newspaper tiny pamphlet. There is a QR code for an electronic one. Disappointing for me.
So for a Mixer "M" and "P" is the same... but when you are in a german car on the autobahn and put it on "M".... be shure what you are doing.....
In my opinion, Bosch could be better...but I don't like Kitchen Aid at all...
Never in a million years Bosch is to greedy.
I bought this Bosch 2 years ago. Don't like. Don't recommend. Just small Bosch is much better .
Get rid of the pounding music.
no thanks.
You like the pounding I take 😂😂
