Happy Thanksgiving everyone...
Disaster has struck...(not seriously) but my K45 Kitchen-aid died on
Thanksgiving Day having been on the job for about 25 years I
think. Fortunately I was only trying to beat whipping cream and there was
a terrible noise...bearings? And fortunately another was brought from my
son's house across the road to finish the mashed potatoes.
So what is the current advice? I bake bread twice a week often. One of
the most delicious this week was Peter Reinhart's walnut and blue cheese
sour dough. I have heard lots of grumblings about the current K45. Is the
larger machine better? A cousin here for Thanksgiving reported sending her
K45 to Kitchen-aid where is was pronounced dead..and they purchased a
refurbished larger KA directly from them. Anyone else do this?
Please write directly and soon if you have advice.
Thanks everyone.
