Next episode: Alex buys a cow.
To make perfect butter. LOL
XDddd
Then Alex makes the ultimate butter churn using gears and power tools.
And next one delete frrrrrrrrench accent
@@scoottoujourspret743 Nooooooooooo. I like the French accent!!
Well RUclips algorithm I’m not really complaining. Watching an French man get pumped up about making croissants with power tools was pretty lit
Totally Agree!
Sometimes the RUclips Algorithm is worth our Datas.
I laughed very long and loud at this... It's like the ultimate modern french thing
@@woodsy900 ultimate French machine 😂
I'm a little sad he didn't cook that croissant.
me too
* bake
ricande how are you?
@@ricande r/woooosh
to prepare food for eating especially by means of heat
American dream: work and get rich

This is still not the last croissant episode guys...

Is that you JLP?
omg it is@@davidfields5375
Man... there's something about seeing this dough being flattened and then re-layered that is really satisfying and makes me want to eat it.
Why
I get it now :0
I feel like you should just get a 3d printer for your shop
Was gonna same thing
Next thing you know he'll have a 3d printer that prints croissants
@James Cotter and a cnc milling machine
ThisOldTony just made gears.

Now tell me that isn’t French as hell
It's not french until the guillotine gets involved

@@Reragi That's nasty!
I am french and we indeed love guillotines for breakfast

Can there be a more righteous and noble quest for a Frenchman?
Finding a unified theory of cheese and make the one cheese that Frenchmen from all regions find to be superior.
To make the perfect croissant?
@@recoil53 So you mean Dutch cheese (the one superior cheese)?
Vive la France 🇫🇷
Before watching this series of videos I had no idea how much my life suffered from a lack of lamination. Seriously, I always find myself smiling watching Alex make DIY cooking contraptions. Thanks for making and sharing.
Got a serious Mathias Wandel/Wintergatan feeling watching you try to cut those gears by hand!
I assume he used Wandel's gear maker
Dito
@@SjoerdJongerius i literally was about to type the same thing, then i saw somebody else typed it :')
i love internet
Wanna guess what they have in common, other than a weird accent and a lot of DIY spirit?
Both got parts from This Old Tony!
@@PaladinFury I love how many of these channels are friendly with each other and like and support each other, even though some of them are completely different they're still so similar. Sometimes the YT algorithm works great at connecting channels together.
Never seen a guy so happy about rolling out dough.

Alex brings a girl over
Alex: i was gonna make some croissants want some?
Her: sure!
Alex: ok one second
*DRILL HEARD IN THE DISTANCE*
Her: what are you doing with power tools?
Alex: MAKING CROISSANTS WHAT ELSE?!
Alex: 12 hours later....almost done...
Her: Why do you have a cow?

When I first saw that Alex is doing a croissant series, don’t be offended by this, but I wasn’t thatttt excited. Because so many other amazing food RUclipsrs have already showed great techniques on their croissant videos. But thennnn Alex just took this croissant series on a tangent, took it to a whole nother level. Shouldn’t have doubted for one second that you would make great, original content :D
Plus : I'm not sure you can grasp the whole croissant thing when you were not raised by the croissant as we are in France. I never found a sole edible one in the countries I visited
Next level cooking show. Alton Brown would be proud.
@@Arkansya yeah, I had one in New York City that was like no other croissant I've ever had. Totally changed my concept of what a croissant could be.
John Dkn - Tell me about it, I was born and raised in Paris, now living in the US.
I loved the part from 3:41 to 3:48
A french dude running around a hall while pointing at everything and saying "LAYSÖÖR MASHHINE" and "I need dis"
I have to admit you're taking this croissant thing to the limits.
Watching Alex just makes me smile! i have been a chef for 20 years and his passion gives me goosebumps, great work
This is the most french invention I can imagine.
Obviously you have not heard of the guillotine.
what about the white flag?
@@Dumass88 you sir, just made my day xD
Partner with This Old Tony again to do this machine! The pasta machine was incredible!
I was looking for this comment. :-)
just realized that croissant dough is like pastry Damascus
It is, trust me, im a baker
@@barbarios88 hi baker. im dad
@@iteate so underrated
Can I just say that even though Ive only been subscribed to alex for a very short period of time..ive genuinely enjoyed every single video he has released because he includes every detail of problems he encounters and how he solved them. Thank you alex for the highly educational videos you make, I hope you continue to do so 😊
This is BEGGING for another This Old Tony Collab! He could make this in no time!!
Came here to say this.
I mean he did just do a couple of episodes about making gears and all, it is a very natural and obvious shout out.
Looks more like a Wintergatan collab to me. Only then it will take 2 years and make music as well, but still.
@@MetalMike50 I'll allow it
Alex, you're so intelligent with your hand made croissants roller! I wished someone build me one , I love to watching croissants maker but I had no good experience with croissants!!!
So, the next step is finding a cow and making your own butter?
Or maybe a goat. Or a cow AND a goat...
Or building the cow from his test kitchen
@@DirtMaguirk "We've milked a cow and made our own butter, and the result is fantastique. But you know I couldn't leave it at that, so let's take it to the next level. I ordered a dose of high grade bull sperm on the internet..."
I am guessing he is gonna fabricate some kind of butter churn machine thingy in the next vid.
A plywood cow driven by a drill. How many gears fit in a cow? Wait for the next episode
Ton accent anglais est incroyable! Nan je rigole super vidéo 😝

Haha, for a second I thought you were gonna have a Clickspring moment when you cut the gears by hand. And then you used a CNC and I cheered :P
If you wanted smoother gears, I would use a polymer like Delrin or UHMW PE. They have a lot less friction, are non absorbent, and will wear better over time.
Also while you had access to a fab lab, I would recommend making a small drilling guide for center drilling dowels. When I was making my wooden lightsaber, I made a series of circles that I then stacked into a tube. At one end, I put a cap on it that had a hole drilled perfectly centered. The little jig slides over an appropriate sized dowel and holds your drill bit in place while you start the hole.
I imagine if he used better gears it'd be on a frame that's also a lot better too. Wooden ones would work fine
Clickspring is satisfying in the same way cooking shows are. I swear to god all those brass shavings make me hungry.
Merci Winston, I love this. About the jig, it sounds great, would fix the centering for sure, but the rollers themselves are wobbly/unbalanced ... It's not that big of a problem when I am flattening over 10mm, but as soon as I get closer to 4 it does become a bit annoying.
@@FrenchGuyCooking how about using PVC tubing instead of wood?
@@FrenchGuyCooking Also, I used to make a lot or mdf gears for teaching kids at a museum. One of the things i'd do on gears i wanted to be longer running but still cheaper than delrin is just get a big cheap bottle of ca glue and pour it on the teeth so they saturate a bit. Just make sure to keep running it slowly until the glue sets all the way :P it spreads the glue evenly and keeps them from seizing. It's kind of like tempering just the teeth :P
06:39 And that my friend is called a döubleföld :D
🤣
“The doe shitter 5000” love accents lol
Hey Alex, been watching your stuff for a while and I just wanted to say a massive thank you for constantly producing such good content. RUclips these days seems to be full of needlessly and aggressively negative, self absorbed, money and metric obsessed creators and commenters, and your channel is a breath of fresh air. Your constant positivity, creativity and love for what you do makes the world a better place. Keep it up!
Adorable! That's French for adorable, people.
Thank you RUclips, this is amazing to watch this man just nerd about croissant and machines. This is adorable and I love it.
Alex my dude - you need to buy a 3D Printer! I have a Tevo Tornado and it's cheap, easy to use an it makes things like gears super simple.
I love how you bring cooking and engineering together
Can you please give us a full detailed recipe for the croissants?
Watch previous vids of the series?
I tried but the first recipe is not very clear in its instructions
I agree there needs to be an written article article
Step one: defeat the Ottomans.
For about 10 croissants : (metric system)
500g of flour
300ml of milk
50g of sugar
12g of salt
15g of fresh yeast (You have to dilute the yeast with the milk. The milk has to be at a temperature of 25°C to activate the yeast.)
190g of butter (for the turning)
Egg yolk and/or milk to glaze before baking
me and my step father have been planning to build a dough sheeter for years, not only for croissant but for bread making in general, this one looks like the perfect one for us, but he doesn't speak any English or French so HERE COME SPANISH SUBTITLES. The only change is that we'll probably do the gears by hand and use a handle instead of a drill
We didn't get to see the croissant you made baked though. One of the satisfying things of your vids are that you usually end up making food with whatever you did in the video. I wanted to see if the inside of that croissant looked the same as the on in the bakery.
Haven't I just made Croissant sashimi ?? Jeez
@@FrenchGuyCooking as long as you eat it at the end of the video, we're satisfied :P
It turned out really bad so he doesn't want to show it ;).
I've been to Paris more times that I care to admit. YOU make me believe in a type of French person that I do not immediately dislike. Thank you for that.
Damn Alex you're a mechanical engineer now!
@D-MMA Wow I didn't know, guess I shouldn't be surprised since many of his solutions are so advanced!
Only a Frenchman would study mechanical engineering to become a better chef :)
@@niklasgnn It's also probably why he knows a guy in a University lab.
1) You've been watching to many videos from "This Old Tony". 2) The dough was far thicker than 4 MM. It looked to be about 9 MM unless you have really tiny hands. 3) I love you presentation and the energy you display.
04:13 Alex, the director, pretending to leave without his camera.
I wonder how often Alex has to run back to pick up his camera while filming stuff :D
@@TheNiters Probably about as often as he sets it up, leaves, and then pretends to arrive.
You are truly an inspiration. Even to those who do not cook. I love how you have an idea and make it happen instead of just having an unfulfilled dream. I need to adopt that mentality.
J’ai une question alex.
Tu as fais quoi comme études supérieurs car j ai l’impression que tu es plus un ingénieur qu’un cuisinier ? 😂
Il èst un ingegnieur en télécommunications.
Hy Alex. I learnd backer many jears ago. I rolled the laminated dough with a big hand-roller. This was hard work. The laminating-butter was to expensive for my boss, so we put the butter in the kneeding mashine and put some weetflour in. That bounds the water in the butter and you get good results with that method too. What is importend for laminated dough is, that the dough and the butter have the same consistency at the same Temprature. If this is not the case, the softer layer will be pushed to the outside and your layers will be poor and uneaven.
Whenever alex posts, it's an instant click😉
This is most french guy on youtube prove me wrong
● he has the french voice
●he is the most exited person about pastery
●he created a machine to litteraly create pasterys precicely
●he can speak french
Me: That fishing line won’t hold ...-
Alex: ....- made for sharks
👌
Wonder what type of sharks.
And we need a bigger boat.
😂😂😂😂
Alex you are a savage! I've been doing it with a rolling pin for 10 years...I finally caved and bought a sheeter.
The dough shitter
You want the best butter? You make it yourself! That's a new series, but it's worth it... They found butter in a bog on Ireland, 2000 years old. Still good... You know it can be done, do it Alex!
I drool over every croissant episode. For your machine you might want to replace the plywood with melamine laminate to prevent any sticking food from picking up wood splinters especially since you cut on it.
As you were cutting the dough on the board i couldnt help but be distracted by the thought of someone getting a splinter in their tongue. Yikes.
I love that you made three gear wheels and put them in the contraption, even though no wheels would do the job. Could've powered the roller directly from the drilling machine but that wouldn't make the video as interesting and wouldn't require any imagination. This is what this channel is all about, finding new boundaries, new ways, new territories. I love it. So honest, so optimistic, exposing the best quality of human mind through cooking. Amazing, GJ thank you for the ispiration.
I swear one day Alex is going to start working on a frankfurter machine and by the end of that series he'll have created a Marble Machine, before Wintergatan finishes his.
I could watch a whole ASMR video about Alex making croissant! Kinda started at 8:09, and I’m here for it!!
"Man can't compete with machine." - my girlfriend
If you want a straight roller and axis, you put a rod through and through, then you put that roller with the rod on a lathe, attached on both ends, and you machine the wood so that it's completely straight. En français : tu perces de part en part le bois avec une tige en métal, tu mets cette tige et le bois sur un tour, et tu usines le bois, ça va être parfaitement droit.
Is this why This Old Tony was making gears
Sure hope it wasn't just for his mini lathe.
This guy amazes me in ways you couldn’t imagine. Such a smart bloke.
Sick "machine" Alex you are so creative! 😳👌
Why "machine"? I think it's alright to call it one
@@Alternatoast I used "" because to me a machine is more electronic, but you are actually right, it is a machine since there is a mechanism
Alex recipe from video 2 and this folding technique are very good.
I tried 2 times a recipe from a high skilled baker from my country and failed.
First try Alex his recipe and bam very good croissants.
Thank you Alex
maybe you should send this machine to a guy who made pasta machine :) for one more collaboration project
Who?
@@ashleyrose5321 ThisOldTony
If ToT isn’t t going to comment I will.
The table needs to be supported on both ends. It rocks when you move it and that affects how the rollers perform. That is why you were having difficulty keeping the dough in a rectangle.
The table itself should be wrapped in a clean muslin or cotton sheet that has been powdered in flour. That really improves texture and roller performance especially with soft doughs.
“You cannot buy this beurre in a store”. Damn patissier. Let the hunt begin.
Brilliant Alex! Did you happen to get the idea to make the gears from 'This Old Tony's' newer series on gears? I saw that he did a shout-out to you on his channel.
Genius! You've made a DOUGH SHEETER out of wood, screws and other metal parts. Very impressive!
So the fablab is run by a chubby Alex lookalike. Maybe we'll get a spinoff show. 'Chubby Alex French Guy Fabricating'
he maybe have one, who knows. :p
@@AdelKhen I hope Alex hooked you up with some croissants.
I’ve not even baked a single Croissant in my life and I’m looking at dough sheeters for $1,000 on amazon. Love the Chanel and the series. Thank you! Salut
What was the cut that you made @ 8:17?
Tom W Relief cut
It allows for a wider roll.
That was covered from his trip to the bakery. It releases the stress form folding the dough while also letting the butter go to the edge.
You're amazing Alex! I admire your dedication and patient!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA TU ES UN DEMON @@Gregtheneg !
I've always wanted a sheeter, looks like an interesting and relatively affordable way to do it.
Me at 3am:
This video:
Hahaha my dude going crazy over the machines in that workshop like a kid stepping into a candy shop for the first time.
Am I the only one who is absolutely triggered by this french accent 😂
BREAK IT PEPE LE PEW
Truly fascinating to see how a machine is what was needed to get that extra thinness and therefore the 7 steps on the croissant.
Am I the only that thought his friend looked like Alex... after eating ALL the croissants?
Not fat-shaming btw... I'm a lard-arse myself :-)
Paul McGuinness YES! I thought I was seeing double!
Can't help but giggle every time he says "Dough Sheeter"
You didn't even bake it. I'm extremely unsatisfied
Dude, your passion for this made me do my own croissants and other stuff. thanks !!!!!
I have the suspicion he is french, I don't know, something tells me that... 🤔
I like how you explain things so easily understandable. Love your new creative ideas and invention.
I also have trouble of making my own croissant and you made my day. merci Alex!
Yo make a chocolate one
Watch his previous videos, he made two or maybe even three videos about that
I see TOT cringing at the woodenness of this machine and vowing to send Alex a message saying how dare he.... Not just ask TOT to make him some parts to this? 😊
Cette accent... nn je dec tres bonne video comme toujours
Alex ! You should do an Olive oil series and go to Southern France, Italy and Spain, just sayin' ;)
Tu devrais améliorer ton accent parce que là c’est trop chaud
Reda B Ouais c’est vrai que c’est chaud 😂😂
C'est voulu, ça fais partie du personnage
C'est fait exprès. Regarde ses toutes premières vidéos, il a un bon accent.
Dough Sheeter 3.0 should have a little electric motor and two limit switches to make it go back and forth with just a simple switch turning it on. Doesn't have to be like the big pro one, but just something simple where you power it, it bounces back and forth, turn off, adjust, turn on. Amazing series though, using ingenuity to overcome hurdles. And make amazing croissants in the process. Keep up the awesome videos!
this is so weird and I dont know how I feel about french people
I just admire the devotion of Alex, his fixation with making the perfect croissant dough that makes him try every possible method!! Hats off to Alex! I was wondering if the machine that he made is available for sale 😁. Greetings from Greece Alex!!!! Keep up the good work! 😉
None of us actualy watched the whole video yet...
Yup. just started it. I've been waiting for this!!!
I did
Wow I'm very impressed that you cut out the gears by hand
Moahahahahhaha, it is Aliiiiiveeeee!!!!
Healthy Recipe Channel now I want a Brad Leone and Alex collaboration
Add an Arduino and stepper motors for a fully automated version - thanks for sharing (your passion) :)
Who here thinks Alex should manufacture machines for cooking? He made loads of them just with his creative mind!
AN idea for an improved version could be to use a CNC router to cut out a hole out of the sheeter board for a marble insert and replace the top roller with a marble roller. That way you could chill both parts in the fridge/freezer before use and there is no danger of heating the dough when rolling. Replace the gears with metal ones and use a bigger motor to drive them faster and you will be turning out croissants much faster, as well as other dough goods.
I don't know if there's any other Metatron fans here, but Alex looks like his culinary french twin.
I can see it
I love your determination here. This is another great video. Cheers, Alex!
