Pizza Mixers

Types of Professional Mixers on StarPizza

Spiral Mixers

Spiral mixers are ideal for thick doughs, such as those used for bread and pizza . Available with a fixed or removable bowl, they guarantee a uniform dough thanks to the combined rotation of the bowl and the spiral. This process allows the ingredients to be oxygenated and heated, creating a strong gluten mesh and giving the dough softness and porosity. Available in single-phase or three-phase versions, with one or two speeds, they are a versatile choice for pizzerias and bakeries.

Planetary Mixers

The planetary mixer stands out for its dough hook that not only rotates on itself, but also moves along the entire bowl. This double movement allows you to mix different ingredients evenly, making it ideal for a wide range of preparations, from pizza to desserts.

Although its cost is generally higher than other types of mixers, such as spiral or fork mixers, the planetary mixer offers a versatility that makes it suitable for those who need a multifunctional tool.

Fork Mixers

Fork mixers use an inclined movement that reduces the heating of the dough , preserving its properties and ensuring a crumbly and well-mixed consistency. These machines are ideal for hard or medium-hard dough, making them a versatile solution for any type of production, from pizza to bread.

Hook Mixers

With their hand-kneading inspired design, dough hook mixers are ideal for pizza, breadsticks, focaccia and bread. The C-shaped hook and rotating bowl work together to form a perfect gluten mesh, without overheating the dough. This ensures shorter processing times compared to other types of mixers, maintaining excellent and consistent results.

Perfect Pizza Doughs with the Best Professional Mixers

If you are a professional pizza chef, you know how important it is to use quality ingredients and the right equipment to obtain a perfect dough. Choosing the right professional mixer can make the difference in making an excellent pizza.

For an impeccable dough, we recommend using “00” flour, ideal for long leavening , and natural water at room temperature. Brewer’s yeast is the most suitable choice, while salt must be carefully dosed so as not to compromise the leavening process. These high-quality ingredients, combined with one of our professional mixers, will guarantee you excellent results.
