beater should just clear the bottom of the bowl but should not touch it. Plug Stand Mixer in. Turn Stand Mixer
ON and test each speed making sure the beater does not touch the bowl during operation. If the beater is too
far away from the bottom, or is hitting the bowl, proceed to step 6 to make the necessary adjustments.

periods, you may not be able to comfortably touch the top of the Stand Mixer. This is normal. The Stand Mixer
motor may emit a pungent odor during initial operation. This is common with electric motors.

Tips for Great Results
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 over beating. With cakes, for example,
beating time may be half as long as with
other stand mixers.
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” section.
Mixer Use
NOTE: Do not scrape bowl while Stand
Mixer is operating.
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 our 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.
NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom of
bowl are not thoroughly mixed, then the
beater is not far enough into the bowl.
See the “Setting Up Your Stand Mixer”
section.
English
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.

2-4 egg whites ...............GRADUALLY to 8
6 or more egg whites ..... GRADUALLY to 8
Whipping Stages

Soft Peak
Tips of peaks fall over when

to designated speed and whip to desired
stage. See chart below.

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 Stainless
Steel Whip is removed. Can be folded
into other ingredients when making
desserts and sauces.

Tips for Great Results
Bread Making Tips
Making bread with a mixer is quite different
from making bread by hand. Therefore,
it will take some practice before you are
completely comfortable with the new
process. For your convenience, we offer
these tips to help you become accustomed
to bread-making the KitchenAid® brand way.
• Always use the PowerKnead™ Spiral
Dough Hook to mix and knead yeast
doughs.
• Use Speed 2 to mix or knead yeast dough.
Use of any other speed with heavy doughs
may cause mixer to stop rotating to limit
mixer damage. This is normal operation.
If this occurs, turn the speed selector
to off, and then turn back on to a lower
speed.
• Use a candy or other kitchen
thermometer to assure that liquids
are at temperature specied in the
recipe. Liquids at higher temperature
can kill yeast, while liquids at lower
temperatures will retard yeast growth.
• Warm all ingredients to room
temperature to ensure proper rising
of dough. If yeast is to be dissolved
in bowl, always warm bowl rst by
rinsing with warm water to avoid
cooling of liquids.
• Allow bread to rise in a warm place,
80°F to 85°F, free from draft, unless
otherwise specied in recipe.
