OPERATING THE SPEED CONTROL
This KitchenAid
Hand Mixer will beat faster and more thoroughly than most other
®
electric hand mixers. Therefore, the beating time in most recipes must be adjusted to
avoid over beating. Beating time is faster due to larger beater sizes.
To help determine the ideal beating time, observe the batter or dough and beat only
until it has the desired appearance described in your recipe, such as "smooth and
creamy". To select the best beating speeds, use the "Speed control guide" section.
