There is a deli in Pinelands where I buy it... The Ethical Grocer. It is round the corner from the Pinelands Ou Meul (10 meters away) but they do not appear to have a website.
Is it around the corner towards Spar or inside the little passageway with all the other little shops?

The passage with all the small shops, probably 2nd or 3rd on the right. About 3sq m space.
Oooh it's on my list as well just be careful somethings are best hand kneaded

I really want to make bagels. I must put in a bit more effort.
The Kenwood Chef rocks. My favorite kitchen machine.
I have an extra bowl for ice-cream, you freeze it before mixing. A bit of a pain but the ice-cream turns out really well. And an attachment for making pasta, which I use more often. You can get all sorts of attachments (at some cost) but the machine is unchanged from some 1950's extremely powerful engine, is worth investing.

Yeah the kenwood chefs are an absolute beast.
Follow the above recipe. Every batch I have made has turned out perfectly and they have really been super easy to make.
DO NOT USE AP FLOUR/CAKE FLOUR
Try use this if possible https://eurekamills.co.za/product/white-bread-flour/
You must use flour that has lots of gluten.
I aim for 1min to 80 seconds a side boiled as well.
As I make beer I actually had dry malt so instead of using the sugar I was able to add 40g malt powder for the more authentic bagel as well.

How long have you had your sour dough starter going for ? I had a sample from motherdough and had it going for about a year before I lost it.
It's in a dormant state at the moment, haven't made sourdough in ages but it's likely about 4 years old.
You can freeze or dehydrate and pop it into a bottle.
Then just add some to flour and water and restart the process.
