Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Before starting, bring the mixer to a temperature of 27 ± 1 °C by use of a suitable quantity of tempered water.
Place the liquid dough ingredients in the mixer and place the flour plus malt flour on top.
Start the mixer (speed 1, 1 400 rev/min), and allow to run for 60 seconds. Twenty seconds after the start of mixing, turn the scraper attached to the lid of the mixing bowl two revolutions.
Measure the temperature of the dough. If it is outside the range 26 to 28 °C, discard the dough and mix a new one after adjustment of ingredient temperatures.
Note dough properties using one of the following terms:
non-sticky and machinable, or
sticky and non-machinable.
To be considered ‘non-sticky and machinable’ at the end of mixing, the dough should form a coherent mass which hardly adheres to the sides of the bowl and spindle of the mixer. It should be possible to collect the dough by hand and remove it from the mixing bowl in a single motion without noticeable loss.
