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

breads coffee cakes

Mixing Time
Your KitchenAid®Stand Mixer will mix
faster and more thoroughly than
most other electric 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
mixers.
Mixer Use
NOTE: Do not scrape bowl while
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 unit off before
scraping.
The 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
unit. This is normal.
If the mixer becomes overloaded, it
will automatically shut off to prevent
damage. See "Auto-Reset Motor
Protection" on page 7.
