Determining the size of your spiral mixer bowl can be a little nuanced. If you are growing and you think your batch sizes are increasing in frequency or in size (because you don’t have bottlenecks or you’ve you’ve eliminated things down the line); I would look for a bowl size large enough to meet your capacity.

But if you have an option or you’re in between, I would find one that has the lowest minimum quantity required for proper mixing. That means that you can always grow into that mixer, and gives you that advantage, so you’re planning for the future, and you’re not going to outgrow that mixer in a quarter, or a year, or two years. You can kind of preplan into that.
