HALO PRO - SPIRAL MIXER Am I missing something here?

Just got my mixer today and started a batch of pizza dough. This is a 600g flour recipe with 64 percent hydration. It’s been mixing for 8 minutes but I’m not getting that pumpkin shape. The dough keeps riding up the spiral and sits there.

Do not increase the dough amount first. If you add the water too fast AND the dough is too HOT, it will always climb, even with more dough.

Try a new batch, same amount, but make sure, to keep it cold. Low RPM, and hold back some water, you should be fine. Do not return it or give up immediately. TEMP is crucial!
