Quality yeast
Do the math first, it's half a kilo so that makes over 70 lumps of wet dough weighing 815g at normal hydration or 2yrs of bread loaves easy. So tub up say 150g and store the rest in snap lid tubs kept in the fridge. Not a bad idea to add little packs of silica gel to the storage tubs.
2 years later you might have to bloom the yeast, ex storage, a bit longer but so what. I made ciabatta with quite old Fermipan last month, both the biga & loaf turned out OK.
Made at the BPF plant in Felixstowe, good stuff. Way better, cheaper than dopey supermarket rubbish.

Lightweight but 50% rubbish motors
One of the fans, motor seized up after only a week. Most involved refund procedure involving labels, Hermes and confusion but refunded dosh today. Oh well.
I've ordered a couple of 120mm 5V USB case fans instead, they normally have far better MTBF & run silent.

Well engineered for under £100.
Early days but it does 1kg of bread dough very well. Far quieter than conventional mixers, you can think while it's on. Clever Orbital action usually means the bowl is left clean. Very stable, you can walk away, do something else while it's mixing, it does not walk across your work surface. Don't think I'll be buying any of the expensive optional attachments, I have a peeler & a knife to do most of that. Durable?? We'll see.
The death of most mixers is when the gearbox drive wears out prematurely or starts dripping lubricant into your nice bread dough or cake mix.
Must see how it creams butter & sugar next (higher speeds) but so far I'm happy making nice fresh flatbreads, loaves, rolls. A dense or heavy bread mix can make the dough hook distort & "bottom out" on the raised bowl center but not bothered, hook & bowl all stainless steel. Haven't seen it throw flour out of the bowl like other mixers, the action is slow, controlled & efficient.
Sort of folds up nicely into a parked shape.
