Mixing time
Your KitchenAid Stand Mixer will mix
faster and more thoroughly than most
other electric mixers� Therefore, the
mixing time in most recipes must be
adjusted to avoid overbeating�
To help determine the ideal mixing time,
observe the batter or dough and mix only
until it has the desired appearance described
in your recipe, such as “smooth and creamy�”
To select the best mixing speeds, use the
“Speed control guide” section�
NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom
of bowl are not thoroughly mixed,
then the beater is not far enough into
the bowl� See the “Setting up your
Stand Mixer” section�
Adding Ingredients
Always add ingredients as close to side of
bowl as possible, not directly into moving
beater� The Pouring Shield can be used to
simplify adding ingredients� Use Speed 1
until ingredients have been blended� Then
gradually increase to desired speed�
Adding Nuts, Raisins, or Candied Fruits
Follow individual recipes for guidelines on
including these ingredients� In general, solid
materials should be folded in the last few
seconds of mixing on Speed 1� The batter
should be thick enough to keep the fruit
or nuts from sinking to the bottom of the
pan during baking� Sticky fruits should be
dusted with flour for better distribution
in the batter�
TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS
Mixing tips
Liquid Mixtures
Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid
ingredients should be mixed at lower speeds
to avoid splashing� Increase speed only after
mixture has thickened�
KitchenAid optional attachments are designed to assure long life� The attachment power
shaft and attachment hub socket are of a square design, to eliminate any possibility of slipping
during the transmission of power to the attachment� The hub and shaft housings are tapered
to assure a snug fit, even after prolonged use and wear. KitchenAid attachments require no
extra power unit to operate them; the power unit is built-in�
