the mixer will not be able to incorporate everything
use 2 spatulas to do the initial mixing
after shaggy dough is formed keep monitoring it - might need a bit more flour or water
end result should be slightly sticky dough with taut skin and clean bowl sides

after mixing is done (program still running) remove dough hook
form into a clean ball and press down
with a regular chopstick measure volume
mark it down by using the fancy chopstick on a cutting board
