Has anyone had their KA dough hook to break on you? I was making MMF (recipe on this site) and my hook snapped right off. I have emailed the company, but they have not replied.

I only use my dough hook for MMF. It has not broken. However, when using the dough hook on the KA, they instruct you never to go higher than speed #3. I am assuming that is why.

That may have been it. I will certainly keep that in mind next time. Thanks for your reply...............

If you go higher than 3 then it will break. Also if the mmf is getting too stiff that could have done it also.

I've seen others on here say that they've had theirs brake.......have also seen others that had the motor on the KA burn out!!! yikes!

Can you buy the metal one? All my attachments are metal. I don't think you could break them if you tried, espeically the dough hook. You'd burn the motor out before it would break!

But I'm not sure if they fit all models.

i have used mine. its not broken either. it sounds funny though. didnt think that it could just break on you.

I use my KA Hook attachment all the time when making MMF...and my KA Mixer is 15 yrs. old.
Which part did it break from ? That part where you push and twist to attach it to the main part ? I can't even imagine this would happen.
That's odd.

It just snapped off just about where the first curve starts. I probably had it on a setting that
was too fast. I hate it, especially since it is going to cost about 20.00 to replace. I am happy
that the motor didn't burn up though...........
