- Is the KitchenAid KFP1318BM good for bread dough?
- It can knead with the dough hook, but the 500-watt motor is on the low side for stiff dough. It handles softer doughs better than heavy whole-wheat or high-hydration batches.
- What comes in the box?
- The processor, a 13-cup work bowl with lid and feeder, a dough hook, a reversible slicer/shredder disc and a grater disc.
- How does it compare with higher-wattage food processors?
- Rivals at 700 watts and up power through hard cheese and dense dough more easily. This model wins on simplicity and included discs rather than raw power.
- Can I put the bowl and discs in the dishwasher?
- The discs are generally hand-washed to keep edges sharp, and some owners report the plastic bowl warps on hot cycles. Check the manual before dishwashing.
- Is 13 cups enough for a family?
- Yes for most households; it handles soups, slaws and dough for two loaves. Very large batches may need to be split.
