Mixing Guide
For even and thorough mixing, slowly
guide the beaters around the sides and
through the centre of the bowl in the
same direction. Do not overmix.
Always stop the mixer by moving the
speed control switch to the ‘0’ OFF
position before raising the beaters out of
the mixing bowl.
When adding ingredients or scraping the
bowl, stop the mixer and rest it on it’s
base with the bowl below the beaters
to catch any mixture draining from the
beaters.
When folding dry ingredients into delicate
mixtures such as sponge cake, use Speed
1 on the ‘Low’ setting. Do not overmix.
Always start mixing at slow speeds.
Gradually increase to the recommended
speed as stated in the recipe.
Beating Egg Whites
1. Separate the yolk and white carefully
ensuring there is no yolk in the egg
white. If some egg yolk is in the egg
white, use the egg shell to scoop the yolk
out.
2. Best results are achieved when using
a glass or stainless steel mixing bowl.
If using a plastic mixing bowl, rub the
inside of the bowl with ½ a lemon. (This
helps remove any grease). Then wash
and dry thoroughly.
3. For best result always ensure that the
beaters and mixing bowl are thoroughly
clean and dry.
4. For maximum volume, beat egg whites at
room temperature.
5. Beat egg whites using Speed 5 on the
High range setting. Beating time can vary
depending on the freshness of the eggs.
Whipping Cream
1. Thickened cream gives the best results.
2. For maximum volume use well chilled
cream. For best results, chill the bowl
and beaters before whipping.
3. Use a deeper bowl to prevent splatter.
With the Beatermix Pro set to a High
range setting, start by mixing on Speed
2, than increase to Speed 4 or 5 as the
cream thickens.
4. If intending to use the cream for piping,
add approximately 2 teaspoons icing
sugar per 300ml of cream before mixing.
This will help the cream hold its shape.
For your information, the following temperature settings are included as a guide. These
settings may need to be adjusted to suit the individual range.
Note: If using fan forced ovens be sure to turn the temperature down by 20-30°C. Also
check recipes at the back of this book.
Mixing Tips
Oven Temperature Guide
Before cleaning your Sunbeam Beatermix
Pro, ensure that the power is turned off at the
power outlet, then remove the plug. Wipe over
the outside area of the Beatermix Pro with
a dampened cloth and polish with a soft dry
cloth. Wipe any excess food particles from the
power cord.
Do not immerse the motor housing in water
or any other liquid. Do not harsh detergents
or abrasive cleaners to clean the motor
housing as these will scratch and damage the
surface.
Wash the beaters and dough hooks in warm
soapy water with a cloth or sponge. Rinse
and dry thoroughly. Do not use scouring pads
or abrasive cleaners. The beaters and dough
hooks can also be placed in a dishwasher.
Note: Never wind the power cord around the
motor after use as the warmth of the motor
may cause damage to the power cord.
