Hints and Tips
Start at low speed and as the mixture thickens, increase the speed.
If the machine starts to slow or labour, increase the speed.
Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl at regular intervals to assist the mixing
operation.
When creaming for cake mixtures, use butter or margarine at room temperature or soften
before use.
For best results with small quantities, use the handmixer without the stand.
Large quantities and thick mixtures may require a longer mixing time.
If you wish to mix larger quantities or heavier mixes, remove the mixer from the stand
and use a bowl of an appropriate size.
When re-kneading dough after proving it is recommended that the mixer is removed
from the cradle and used hand held.
Recommended Usage Chart
Please note that these are recommendations for using the stand and supplied mixing
bowl. If using the mixer by hand, the speed you select may depend upon the bowl
size (if not using the bowl supplied), quantities, the ingredients you are mixing and
personal preference.
Gradually increase to the recommended speeds below.
