Hints and Tips
• For most recipes, it is better to begin your mixing on a slower speed until the
ingredients begin combining, then move to the appropriate speed range for the task.
• Refrigerated ingredients such as butter and eggs should be at room temperature
before mixing.
• Generally, there is not one set speed for an entire recipe. You will need to change the
speed of the mixer depending on what stage of the recipe you are working on.
• When mixing larger quantities, you may need to increase the mixer speed due to the
amount of mixing required and the larger load on the machine. Do not overfill the
mixing bowl, otherwise the mixer motor may overheat.
•
When building up a recipe that requires the addition of dry ingredients, such as flour,
slow the speed down whilst these ingredients are being added to avoid a snow storm
effect. Once the additional ingredients begin combining then slowly increase to the
appropriate speed for the mixing task.
