Has anyone seen those automated donut makers that "poop" out a donut into a circulating trough of hot oil, then as they travel along, an arm flips them over and they end up being grabbed onto a mesh metal belt that moves them along to where they are removed, all cooked?
I'm picturing a machine that poops a pancake onto a heated surface, then flips them somehow to finish.
Also in the Midwest. The Krispy Kreme doughnut company used to have those machines in front of bulgur /big windows, so you could watch them from the street. Don't know if they still do.No, really, the automated donut machines are fairly common at apple/pumpkin picking orchards and at festivals in the fall in the Northeast.
I'm thinking of a rotating, flipping griddle. The problem is cooking both sides. With deep frying like donuts are cooked, a simple armature that causes them to flip in the oil is easy.
well, there ya go OP...

The OP already told us on page 1 that these machines are too large and too expensive for home use.
