Product Overview
The GLEAD Mini Dough Sheeter GL-370 is a space-saving, countertop-grade machine built for small-scale dough rolling needs. Designed for home bakers, pop-up bakeries, food trucks, and culinary schools, it automates the labor-intensive process of hand-rolling dough, delivering consistent thickness and preserving delicate dough structures (e.g., laminated pastries). With a 370mm roller width, 2.5kg maximum dough weight, and 220V operation, it’s compact enough for tight spaces (1700×700×560mm, 75kg) but powerful enough to cut prep time by 70%+. Whether you’re making dumpling wrappers, mini pizza crusts, or cookies, this sheeter ensures professional-quality results every time.
Key Features & Technical Specs
Precision Dough Rolling
Adjustable Thickness: Roller regulating range of 27.5mm, allowing for thin sheets (e.g., 0.1mm for pasta) or thicker crusts (e.g., 10mm for mini pies) via simple lever adjustments. This precision ensures every piece of dough is the same thickness, which is critical for even baking—no more overcooked edges or undercooked centers in cookies or tart shells.
Dual Stainless Steel Rollers: Food-safe, rust-resistant, and easy to clean—they roll dough evenly without sticking, even when working with sticky doughs like sweet pastry. The smooth surface of the rollers preserves gluten integrity, which is essential for flaky pastries (e.g., croissants) or chewy mini pizza crusts.
Compact & User-Friendly Design
Space-Saving Footprint: Fits standard countertops (1700×700×560mm), making it ideal for food trucks, small cafés, or home kitchens where every inch of space counts. Unlike larger sheeters, it doesn’t require dedicated floor space, so it can be stored in a cabinet or closet when not in use.
Motorized Conveyor: 1250×350mm belt moves dough through rollers smoothly, reducing manual effort—users simply place the dough on the belt, and it feeds into the rollers automatically. The 0.4kw motor ensures quiet operation (≤65dB), so it doesn’t disturb customers in small cafes or family members in home kitchens.
Durable & Safe
Reinforced Gears: Withstand daily use in small commercial settings, such as pop-up bakeries that operate 5–6 days a week. These gears resist wear and tear, ensuring the sheeter maintains consistent performance for years.
Finger Guards: Positioned near rollers to prevent accidental contact, a crucial safety feature for busy kitchens or culinary schools where multiple people may use the machine. The guards are transparent, so users can still see the dough as it’s rolled, ensuring they can adjust thickness if needed.
Non-Slip Feet: Keep the machine stable during operation, even when rolling heavier dough batches (up to 2.5kg). The feet also protect countertops from scratches, which is important for home bakers or cafes with marble or wooden countertops.
Ideal Applications
Small Bakeries & Pop-Ups
Small bakeries and pop-up operations often operate with limited space and staff, making efficiency and consistency key—and the GLEAD Mini Dough Sheeter GL-370 delivers both. For a small bakery specializing in mini tarts or croissants, the sheeter’s adjustable thickness ensures every tart shell is the same size and every croissant layer is even, creating a uniform, professional look that appeals to customers. The machine’s compact size fits into tiny bakery kitchens, where floor space is reserved for ovens and display cases. Pop-up bakeries, which often set up in temporary locations (e.g., market stalls), benefit from the sheeter’s portability—at 75kg, it’s easy to transport and set up, and it runs on 220V, which is compatible with most market power outlets. The sheeter also cuts prep time by 70%, allowing small teams to handle more orders during busy market days without sacrificing quality.
Food Trucks
Food trucks face unique challenges: limited space, the need for fast prep, and durability to withstand mobile operations—and the GL-370 is designed to meet all these needs. Its compact footprint fits into the tight confines of a food truck kitchen, where space is often limited to a few square meters. For a food truck serving dumplings or mini pizzas, the sheeter’s ability to roll dough quickly (in seconds per sheet) ensures the truck can keep up with lines during peak hours. The motorized conveyor reduces manual effort, which is important for food truck staff who often work alone or in small teams. The sheeter’s durable stainless steel construction withstands the vibrations and temperature changes of mobile operations—unlike fragile home-grade equipment, it won’t break down after a few months of use. Additionally, the 220V operation is compatible with most food truck generators, so the sheeter can run reliably wherever the truck goes.
Home Bakers & Culinary Schools
Home bakers looking to elevate their skills will love the GL-370’s ability to deliver professional-quality dough sheets without the hassle of hand-rolling. For example, making homemade pasta by hand is time-consuming and often results in uneven sheets, but the sheeter’s adjustable thickness creates smooth, uniform pasta that cooks evenly. The machine also makes it easy to experiment with new recipes, such as laminated cookies or mini quiches, which require precise dough thickness to turn out well. Culinary schools use the GL-370 to teach students proper dough-handling techniques—its transparent finger guards let students see how dough reacts to different thickness settings, and the consistent results help students learn the importance of even rolling for baking success. The machine’s quiet operation is also a plus in classrooms, where multiple sheeters can be used at once without creating excessive noise.
FAQ
What’s the maximum dough weight the GL-370 can handle?
The GL-370 can handle a maximum dough weight of 2.5kg per batch—perfect for small-scale production or family-sized recipes. This weight is ideal for making 10–12 mini pizza crusts (6–8 inches each), 20–25 dumpling wrappers, or a batch of cookies that serves 15–20 people. It’s enough for home bakers to feed their family or small gatherings, and for small cafes to handle a morning rush of pastry orders.
Can it roll laminated dough (e.g., croissant dough) without damaging layers?
Yes! The GL-370’s gentle rolling action preserves the delicate layers of laminated dough, which is essential for creating flaky croissants or danishes. Laminated dough requires careful handling—too much pressure can flatten the butter layers, ruining the flakiness—but the sheeter’s dual stainless steel rollers apply even, light pressure, ensuring the layers stay intact. Users can adjust the thickness gradually (e.g., starting at 5mm and reducing to 2mm) to build up the layers without damaging them, resulting in pastries that are just as flaky as those from professional bakeries.
Is it difficult to assemble?
No— the GL-370 comes pre-assembled, so users don’t need to spend time putting parts together. All you need to do is unpack the machine, place it on a stable countertop, plug it into a 220V outlet, and adjust the roller thickness using the lever. The user manual includes clear instructions on how to adjust the thickness and use the motorized conveyor, so even first-time users can start rolling dough within minutes.
How do I clean the rollers?
Cleaning the rollers is simple: once the machine is turned off and the rollers have cooled, wipe them down with a damp, soft cloth to remove any dough residue. For sticky doughs (e.g., sweet pastry), you can lightly dust the rollers with flour before use to prevent sticking, which also makes cleaning easier. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface and damage the food-safe finish. The conveyor belt can also be wiped down with a damp cloth—just make sure to dry it thoroughly to prevent mold growth.
