USING THE STAND MIXER

SPEED CONTROL GUIDE — 10 SPEED STAND MIXERS

All speeds have the Soft Start® feature that 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.

SPEED	USED FOR	ATTACHMENT DESCRIPTION
Stir	Stirring	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
	Kneading	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.
4	Mixing, Beating	For mixing semi-heavy batters, such as 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.
