Using Your KitchenAid®Attachments
Flat Beater for normal to heavy mixtures:
cakes biscuits creamed frostings quick breads candies meat loaf cookies mashed potatoes pie pastry
Wire Whip for mixtures that need air incorporated:
eggs sponge cakes egg whites angel food cakes heavy cream mayonnaise boiled frostings some candies
PowerKnead™ Spiral Dough Hook for mixing and kneading yeast doughs:
breads coffee cakes rolls buns pizza dough
Mixing Time
Your KitchenAid®stand mixer will mix faster and more thoroughly than most other electric stand mixers. Therefore, the mixing time
in most recipes must be adjusted to avoid overbeating. With cakes, for example, beating time may be half as long as with other stand mixers.
Mixer Use
NOTE: Do not scrape bowl while
stand mixer is operating.
The bowl and beater are designed to provide thorough mixing without frequent scraping. Scraping the bowl once or twice during mixing is usually sufficient. Turn stand mixer off before scraping.
The stand mixer may warm up during use. Under heavy loads with extended mixing time, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the stand mixer. This is normal.
WARNING
Injury Hazard
Unplug mixer before touching beaters.
Failure to do so can result in broken bones, cuts or bruises.
8
Bowl, white flat beater and white spiral dough hook may be washed in an automatic dishwasher. Or, clean them thoroughly in hot sudsy water and rinse completely before drying. Wire whip, burnished spiral dough hook and burnished flat beater should be hand washed and dried immediately. Do not wash wire whip, burnished spiral dough hook
Care and Cleaning
1. Unplug stand mixer.
2. Place bowl-lift handle in down position.
3. Attach flat beater.
4. Adjust so flat beater just clears bottom surface of bowl when in lifted position by turning screw (A) counterclockwise to raise the bowl and clockwise to lower the bowl. Just a slight turn is all that is required: the screw will not rotate more than 1⁄4 turn (90 degrees) in either direction. (The full range of adjustment is
1
2 turn, or 180 degrees.)
5. Place bowl-lift handle in up position to check clearance.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 if necessary.
NOTE: When properly adjusted, the flat beater will not strike on the bottom or side of the bowl. If the flat beater or the wire whip is so close that it strikes the bottom of the bowl, coating may wear off the beater or wires on whip may wear.
Beater to Bowl Clearance
Your stand mixer is adjusted at the factory so the flat beater just clears the bottom of the bowl. If, for any reason, the flat beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far away from the bowl, you can correct the clearance easily.
and burnished flat beater in a dishwasher. Do not store beaters on shaft. NOTE: Always be sure to unplug stand mixer before cleaning. Wipe stand mixer with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use household/ commercial cleaners. Do not immerse in water. Wipe off beater shaft frequently, removing any residue that may accumulate.

Speed Control Guide – 10-Speed Mixers
All speeds have the Soft Start®feature which automatically starts the stand mixer at a lower speed to help avoid ingredient splash-out and “flour puff” at start-up then quickly increases to the selected speed for optimal performance.
Number of Speed Stir
Speed STIR For slow stirring, combining, mashing,
starting all mixing procedures. Use to add flour and dry ingredients to batter, and add liquids to dry ingredients. Do not use STIR speed to mix or knead yeast doughs.
2 SLOW MIXING For slow mixing, mashing, faster
stirring. Use to mix and knead yeast doughs, heavy batters and candies, start mashing potatoes or other vegetables, cut shortening into flour, mix thin or splashy batters. Use with Can Opener attachment.
4 MIXING, For mixing semi-heavy batters, such as
BEATING cookies. Use to combine sugar and
shortening and to add sugar to egg whites for meringues. Medium speed for cake mixes. Use with: Food Grinder, Rotor Slicer/Shredder, Pasta Roller, and Fruit/Vegetable Strainer.
6 BEATING, For medium fast beating (creaming) or
CREAMING whipping. Use to finish mixing cake,
doughnut, and other batters. High speed for cake mixes. Use with Citrus Juicer attachment.
8 FAST BEATING, For whipping cream, egg whites, and
WHIPPING boiled frostings.
10 FAST WHIPPING For whipping small amounts of cream,
egg whites or for final whipping of mashed potatoes. Use with Pasta Roller and Cutter Set and Grain Mill attachments. NOTE: Will not maintain fast speeds under heavy loads, such as when using Pasta Roller and Cutter Set or Grain Mill attachments.
Use Speed 2 to mix or knead yeast doughs. Use of any other speed creates high potential for stand mixer failure. The PowerKnead™ Spiral Dough Hook efficiently kneads most yeast dough within 4 minutes.

Mixing Tips
Converting Your Recipe for the Mixer
The mixing instructions for recipes in this book can guide you in converting your own favorite recipes for preparation with your KitchenAid®stand mixer. Look for recipes similar to yours and then adapt your recipes to use the procedures in the similar KitchenAid®recipes.
For example, the “quick mix” method (sometimes referred to as the “dump” method) is ideal for simple cakes, such as the Quick Yellow Cake and Easy White Cake included in this book. This method calls for combining dry ingredients with most or all liquid ingredients in one step.
More elaborate cakes, such as Caramel Walnut Banana Torte, should be prepared using the traditional cake mixing method. With this method, sugar and the shortening, butter or margarine are thoroughly mixed (creamed) before other ingredients are added.
For all cakes, mixing times may change because your KitchenAid
®
stand mixer works more quickly than other mixers. In general, mixing a cake with the KitchenAid
®
stand mixer will take about half the time called for in most cake recipes.
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 ­10-Speed Mixers” 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. NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom of bowl are not thoroughly mixed, then the beater is not far enough into the bowl. See “Beater to Bowl Clearance” section.
Cake Mixes
When preparing packaged cake mixes, use Speed 2 for low speed, Speed 4 for medium speed, and Speed 6 for high speed. For best results, mix for the time stated on the package directions.
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 STIR Speed. 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.
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.
11
Egg Whites
Place room temperature egg whites in clean, dry bowl. Attach bowl and wire whip. To avoid splashing, gradually turn to designated speed and whip to desired stage. See chart below.
AMOUNT SPEED
1 egg white .....GRADUALLY to 10
2-4 egg whites......GRADUALLY to 8
6 or more
egg whites......GRADUALLY to 8
Whipping Stages
With your KitchenAid®stand mixer, egg whites whip quickly. So, watch to avoid overwhipping. This list tells you what to expect.
Frothy
Large, uneven air bubbles.
Begins to Hold Shape
Air bubbles are fine and compact; product is white.
Soft Peak
Tips of peaks fall over when wire whip is removed.
Almost Stiff
Sharp peaks form when wire whip is removed, but whites are actually soft.
Stiff but not Dry
Sharp, stiff peaks form when wire whip is removed. Whites are uniform in color and glisten.
Stiff and Dry
Sharp, stiff peaks form when wire whip is removed. Whites are speckled and dull in appearance.
Whipped Cream
Pour cold whipping cream into chilled bowl. Attach bowl and wire whip. To avoid splashing, gradually turn to designated speed and whip to desired stage. See chart below.
AMOUNT SPEED
1
4 cup (50 mL) .....GRADUALLY to 10
1
2 cup (125 mL) ...GRADUALLY to 10
1 cup (250 mL) .....GRADUALLY to 8
1 pint (500 mL).....GRADUALLY to 8
Whipping Stages
Watch cream closely during whipping. Because your KitchenAid®stand mixer whips so quickly, there are just a few seconds between whipping stages. Look for these characteristics:
Begins to Thicken
Cream is thick and custard-like.
Holds its Shape
Cream forms soft peaks when wire whip is removed. Can be folded into other ingredients when making desserts and sauces.
Stiff
Cream stands in stiff, sharp peaks when wire whip is removed. Use for topping on cakes or desserts, or filling for cream puffs.
