Spiral Dough Mixers & Accessories

While both mixers in the Ooni Halo Range bring professional spiral mixing, plus whipping and beating, to your kitchen counter, there are great reasons to choose one over the other.

Batch size

The biggest difference for most bakers will be batch capacity; so it’s worth considering just how much you’re likely to bake in one go. With a 7L bowl, Ooni Halo Pro can mix up to 5 kg of dough in one batch — enough for six sourdough loaves or twenty 12” pizza bases — while Ooni Halo Core’s 4.5L bowl can mix up to 2.5 kg of dough. 

Precision control

Both mixers far exceed the industry standard of 6-11 speed settings, with Ooni Halo Core packing 20 speed settings up to 300 RPM, and Ooni Halo Pro 58 speed settings up to 345 RPM. Ooni Halo Pro also comes with an inbuilt ‘Set and forget’ timer function, allowing you to . 

Countertop space

While both fit comfortably on a countertop, your ideal mixer may depend on the kind of kitchen you’re working in.

Ooni Halo Pro is our most high-powered and heavy duty spiral mixer, coming in at 342mm tall, 442mm wide, 252 mm deep and 14.6 kg/ 32 lb. Engineered for entertaining, its larger size and robust die-cast aluminium structure make it the perfect choice for mixing bigger batches.

Ooni Halo Core is our most compact spiral mixer, 25% smaller and 30% lighter than Ooni Halo Pro at just 313mm tall, 422mm wide, 225mm deep and 10.2 kg/ 22 lb. Its streamlined yet durable design makes it easy to move around or store away, ideal if you’re low on countertop space. Its shorter height also allows it to neatly tuck under low shelves or cabinets.

Traditional spiral mixers often come in sizes that wouldn’t fit through your front door, with an industrial-size price tag attached. Ooni Halo Core’s innovative redesign of these commercial dough mixers brings the same high torque kneading power into a mighty little countertop machine.

But the most important difference is in how much more variety Ooni Halo Core can bring to your kitchen — allowing you to switch from kneading bakery-soft dough to whipping cream or beating cookie batter in seconds.

This is down to a gamechanging Ooni innovation: The patent-pending Removable Breaker Bar. In traditional spiral mixers, this central bar is fixed into place, restricting the mixer to dough making only. In making it fully detachable, the Ooni Halo Range unlocks the additional whipping and beating attachments other spiral mixers lack.

Spiral mixers are engineered to the last detail to make outstanding dough, particularly doughs that require strong gluten development, like breads of all kinds, pizza, focaccias, ciabatta, brioche or panettone. With an Ooni Spiral Mixer, you’ll have even more options thanks to its 7-litre capacity and interchangeable attachments, like the Geared Whisk and Flexible Beater. With them, you’ll be able to make lush cakes, biscuits, pastries, and much more.

Bakers are on a constant search for the perfect loaf of bread, biscuit or cake. You can help them on their way with professional tools. The perfect gift, without a doubt, would be the new Ooni Halo Pro Spiral Mixer. It’s taken the market by storm, and was recently named a standout in the category by WIRED, Eater, Home&Gardens, Serious Eats, and many others.If you’re looking for something with a little less main character energy, take a look at our Dual Platform Scales, which are 5-star rated and will allow your giftee to measure ingredients with a precision of up to a tenth of a gram!
