Spiral Dough Hook Replacement for Kitchen AidMixer K5SS K5A KSM5 KS55 Pro 600 Parts Dough Attachment by BOOTOP PIN

I have a 30+ year old Kitchenaid mixer. It has a 5 quart lift bowl, but I could only make small batches of bread. Why? Because the inept design of the dough hook causes dough to climb up the hook and get gummed up on the drive shaft. The only way around it was to make small batches.Kitchenaid redesigned to a screw shaped dough hook. It pushes the dough downward and eliminates climbing of the dough. But, they don’t make an after market model for my 30 year old mixer. This company does and I am delighted with mine. I made a large batch of bagel dough today and it was a delight!Thank you so much to the vendor. I really needed this!

Made two loaves of bread today, a Crusty Loaf and Limpa Bread. The dough hook performed much better than the original Kitchenaid dough hook. I recommend.

Makes plenty of dough!

I have a K5SS 6 qt Kitchen Aid mixer that I lost the dough hook for. So, at first I bought three C him that was supposed to be their replacement accessory cause they evidently did not have the original design as a replacement option. That dough hook w was close to useless. In fact, I would mix the dough ingredients by hand cause it was faster. Then the C-hook would just turn in the bowl so that the the dough moved in a circle, no kneading action. The dough would also climb up the hook so that I had to stay right next to it to scrape it down every thirty seconds and couldn't leave it while getting other stuff done. In comparison, this spiral hook works like a dream, even better than the original that came with my Kitchen Aid! I can set it to knead, and come back in 5, 10, even 15 minutes and the dough doesn't climb! and it seems to do a great job, of kneading too! I've just made a Shokupan bread that needs to be kneaded to pass the windowpane test and it does it just fine!

I have a 40 year old KitchenAid 5qt stand mixer. I love everything about it, but making dough was always a little less than fun with the need to regularly stop the machine, push the dough down off the original hook, and make sure all of the little bits at the bottom got incorporated into the mass. I usually debated just making dough by hand instead of using the mixer. I didn't *need* a new dough hook but this hook looked interesting, so why not. It arrived quickly, looked like it was made well, and then I put it - still in the shipping box - in the pantry since I didn't really *need* it. Months later I thought I'd give it a try for holiday bread-baking. This dough hook is a game-changer with how it so efficiently works the dough. Love it. Great product!
