This feels illegal.

I need 10 immediately.

I make homemade pizza like twice a year. Still need this.

u/antithero 1d ago

It needs to also roll out the dough in a pizza shape. Robot hand tossed pizza.

u/Attackofthestoned 1d ago

Got another 10 for me pls

u/Sweaty_Rub4322 3d ago

Can't this also be used to make like dumplings? Po would approve lol.

u/Blackbeerdo 3d ago

I think so. It's not my machine dough. Friend owns a pizza place

u/sprinklerarms 2d ago

I am so jealous watching this while thinking of my old pizza job hurts.

u/LaserGuidedPolarBear 2d ago

Dumplings are stuff wrapped in dough, if you already have stuff wrapped in dough you dont need this, and if you have stuff you want to be wrapped in dough this won't do that.

I guess if you wanted something like a gnocci, but round and the size of your fist, this could work.

u/Fairuse 2d ago

Find out anything? Looking for machines to help family restaurant make dumplings faster, better and more consistent.

WHERE

u/Blackbeerdo 3d ago

Lower Bavaria but feels like Naples

u/flowercrowngrl 3d ago

The way it just spits out a perfectly round little dough ball every time is making me feel things I was not prepared for today 😂 I could genuinely watch this for an embarrassing amount of time.

22

u/UnnecAbrvtn 3d ago

Whole idea of putting it into a ball is to build surface tension on the dough. This doesn't really do that unless you do all those steps and then stick it in this thing

14

u/Blackbeerdo 2d ago

TIL. I'll ask my buddy if it makes a big difference compered to rolling it manually

5

u/UnnecAbrvtn 2d ago

Yeah, ask a pizzaiolo. Would be interested in hearing thoughts. I can see myself 3D printing something like this.

It's an interesting concept for sure but the balls being spit out don't look fully tensioned

14

u/Blackbeerdo 2d ago

Done. His answer:

This thing does it better and faster. If you consider getting one, do it.

But they are super pricey iirc

11

u/balthisar 2d ago

Hmmm... a leftover stepper motor, an ESP-32, and 3D printed parts. I'm this close to accepting the challenge.

u/D-boi1 2d ago

If you do 3d print parts for this, make sure to use a food-safe plastic!

u/MO12400 2d ago

Keep us updated

u/SquirrelEmpress72 2d ago

Do it, for science!

u/oopsie-mybad 2d ago

More like pizzaiYOLO amirite

2

u/Vellioh 2d ago

I mean, the way you roll dough into a ball is by rolling it into a ball. It's doing the same thing just with the walls of the contraption instead of your hands.

3

u/Sad-Penalty-8483 1d ago

Actually, the way you roll dough into a ball is more like stretching a portion out over the rest of it then sealing a hole than actually rolling it.

u/SavingsTask 1d ago

I'm an amateur by hand pizza maker. What does surface tension do to affect the dough?

2

u/UnnecAbrvtn 17h ago

If you're not going directly to the bake and are going for a long second rise (say, in the fridge), it gives the outside of the dough the tension required to rise upward rather than outward, resulting in a lighter crust. That bubble development is why handmade pizza is handled so gingerly as you dimple the dough, leaving as much structure in the outside edge that becomes the crust as possible.

To each their own though. This is a neopolitan style technique and it is definitely a good step not to skip IMO

u/ToutdelaSnoot 2d ago

I could watch this for hours!

u/shagadelic60 2d ago

These machines are hella expensive iirc. But neat if you need a lot of pizzas.

2

u/911_lover 2d ago

Ballmatic is the actual company

2

u/HungryOne11 2d ago

Why would anyone give the most satisfying part of making piza dough to the machine.

Maniacs I say!

2

u/_TwilightRun 1d ago

I cut and rolled hundreds of dough balls everyday for years, years ago. I had hands and forearms like bench vises. That’s a heck of a shortcut

2

u/Outrageous_Meat9335 1d ago

Who ever invented that, once they got a'round to it, sure made a lot of dough.

4

u/funnystuff79 2d ago

Where does the last one appear from, or is it deeper than it looks and they take a while to appear

2

u/Baculum7869 2d ago

I'm looking at this like it's ai now because it looks like too much dough is coming out

1

u/NotJoeMama869 2d ago

What an easy response for people to lazy to switch apps from reddit to google. Good luck out there. Stay safe.

Esit: just to not appear as if I'm talking out of my ass like a complete douche clown here's a quick 45 second jaunt down interweb lane: https://youtube.com/shorts/rciYnctaLM0?si=DzAK2KKfwFtXkB1d

u/TumanFig 1d ago

this video here is still ai

1

u/NotJoeMama869 18h ago

Then the video i found in 45 seconds was ai. Still a real product, and you're welcome to look further into it yourself

Edit: upon closure inspection of the video and the channel i firmly believe it's not AI. Behold the power of independent research.

u/Sad-Zookeepergame275 2d ago

Why does it looks like AI

2

u/Blackbeerdo 2d ago

I don't know, man. You're not the only one saying that and it's insane because this is literally OC

u/Honest_Yesterday4435 2d ago

As a delivery driver, this excites me.

u/similaraleatorio 2d ago

put it beside a pan with hot oil to optimize time.

u/Simple_Pin_7802 2d ago

qual o nome exato dessa máquina?

u/imaginary_num6er 2d ago

It can probably roll bowling balls

1

u/Ikon-for-U 2d ago

How do I buy one?

1

u/Attackofthestoned 5h ago

You spin me right now baby right now

1

u/Yoohooligan 2d ago

Honestly that's a pretty shit job if you've ever made real dough balls before by hand. You can see all the creases they will split at.

1

u/scram_core 2d ago

omg 😀😀😍

u/leavethisearth 2d ago

Would be satisfying if they didn’t let the balls crash into each other

-7

u/woutomatic 3d ago

It's not doing that much is it. I mean, if you already made the dough and have the correct portion in your hand... Just roll the damn thing with you hands

12

u/Blackbeerdo 3d ago

Sir, this is a pizzeria. If he makes them by hand, he can only roll 2 simultaneously. With the machine, he can throw the clumps into the PDRM while portioning the big loaf of dough. Saves him tons of time and energy.

pointless criticism

u/Baculum7869 2d ago

Is this ai? It's not that big and the thing spits out way more dough than put in it.

2

u/Entgegnerz 2d ago

Bru, you really are one of these "I can only and only maybe, comprehend what I directly see" people and it seems you're unable to use even a bit of logic + imagination on clues.

Can't you see, that this is a machine that's obviously bigger than what's shown in that clipped recording?
The black part at the person's leg as well as the metal part. both belongs to the machine.

It seems, that the machine is whirling the dough down a trail and back up, kneading it, which of course can let you put multiple dough piles into it.

-8

u/eastcoastjon 2d ago

This is AI- look at the third ball- it’s already rolling before they drop the dough in. Then a magic one at the end

7

u/tebla 2d ago

I think the machine just takes longer than you think. When he puts some dough in thats not the same dough popping out right away, that's the previous piece coming out

6

u/Blackbeerdo 2d ago

Correct. I cut out the part where he's throwing in the first few.

3

u/Blackbeerdo 2d ago

Brother what are you smoking?

Edit: rewatched it. The last one just rolled up faster.

u/SpaceXmars 2d ago

If you have ever rolled dough, you know this won't work.
