Description / Hand Crank Dough Maker | Vintage Reproduction
Includes instruction and recipe sheet. The recipe nets four loaves of bread at a time.
A reproduction dough maker like the vintage bread dough buckets such as the Camco and Mirror Bread Dough Makers.
The bowl is made from a stainless-steel mixing bowl. The round bottom contours better to the dough hook than the flat bottom aluminum or galvanized buckets used on the vintage models. This design picks up the dry material quicker to make the dough ball.
Hand Crank Bread Dough Makers were a popular bread machine before electricity and even up until the 70s.
8 qt stainless steel bowl and dough hook to replace the original aluminum tub. The yoke and handle are made of cast alloy.
The bowl measures 12" in diameter X 6-1/2" tall.
The positive locking top holds the bowl in place while cranking. The two front ends of the yoke have pegs that fit holes in the bowl rim.
The back knob of the yoke screws down through a hole in the bowl edge much like a woodworker's clamp.
Just like they use to do when making large stiff batches of dough, cradle the bowl with one arm wrapped around holding on to the handle while you crank with the other hand. You can click on the link below to see a picture of a lady using the EZ DOH mixer in this manner.

Ok this is a review about Lindy’s dough mixer/ kneader and what I did. First of all it didn’t come with instructions for me. However it was easy enough to figure out. Yours will probably come with instructions on assembly and bread making recipe. And although kinda short but insightful on how best to do it (recommended that you do as directed. Just not the measurements). Look at the bottom of the styrofoam in the mixer box for all parts. The bowl is larger than expected, but not complaining. After assembly I did try it on making a loaf and it was great for me. I actually made two loaves (separately). I just use a decent sized convection cooker because I don’t want to waste the energy on a large oven (it’s my personal choice as it’s just me). So anyway it worked like a dream for me. After I was done mixing the formed dough for 3 minutes all I had to do is knead it about 20-30 seconds (if that) to form it to make it semi smooth without tearing the dough. Because it will be mixed but not a smooth ball and it will come out rough (like it should be) as you knead the dough as you turn the mechanism. Anyway after I was done (I used rapid rise yeast) it came out great. I was so happy about this mixer/kneader that I had to write a review. So there it is. A WARNING though. I was told in a quick response email that I needed to check the screws on it to make sure they are tight. And I did on the assembly parts but not the knob that you have your hand on to spin the mechanism by hand and the screw dropped on the floor during the second batch. I got it put back together on that one screw. But please check ALL your screws and I believe that this item will impress you as it did me. BTW. Along with other ingredients I used just slightly over 12oz (350g) of flour to one cup of liquid not including the butter or oil I added in my recipe. I also lightly dusted the dough once to make sure it pulled away from the sides and not the bottom. But I will toss the box as it’s a keeper to me and well worth it. It is made in India. That didn’t bother me as the holes lined up just fine. Not cheap but it’s not like I can take or use the mixer in the grave
