Care and Cleaning
Bowl, coated flat beater and coated
dough hook may be washed in an
automatic dishwasher. Or, clean them
thoroughly in hot sudsy water and rinse
completely before drying. Do not store
beaters on shaft.
NOTE: The wire whip is not
dishwasher-safe.
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.
Planetary Mixing Action
During operation, the
flat beater moves
around the stationary
bowl, at the same
time turning in the
opposite direction on
its own axis.Thediagram
shows the complete
coverage of the bowl made by the path
of the beater. Your KitchenAid R_'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 overheating.
Stand Mixer Use
Injury Hazard
Unplug mixer before touching
beaters.
Failure to do so can result in broken
bones, cuts or bruises.
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 Stand Mixer may warm up during use.
Under heavy loads with extended mixing
time, you may not be able to comfortabJy
touch the top of the unit. This is normal.
NOTE: Do not scrape bowl while Stand
Mixer is operating.

Mixing Tips
Converting Your Recipe
for the Stand Mixer
The mixing instructions found in this
book can be used to convert your favorite
recipes for use with your KitchenAid _:'
Stand Mixer.
To help determine a mixing procedure,
your own observations and experience will
be needed. Watch the batter or dough
and mix only until it has the desired
appearance described in your recipe such
as"smooth and creamy." Use the "Speed
Control Guide" to help determine proper
mixing speeds.
Adding Ingredients
The standard procedure to follow when
mixing most batters, especially cake and
cookie batters, is to add:
_/3dry ingredients
_/2liquid ingredients
_/3dry ingredients
_/2liquid ingredients
_/3dry ingredients
Use Speed 1 until ingredients have been
blended. Then gradually increase to
desired speed.
Always add ingredients asclose 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, the beater
is not far enough into the bowl. See
"Beater to Bowl Clearance."
Cake Mixes
When preparing packaged cake mixes, use
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
Solid materials should be folded in the last
few seconds of mixing on Speed 1. 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.
Kneading Yeast Doughs
ALWAYS use the dough hook to mix and
knead yeast doughs. Use Speed 2 to mix
or knead yeast doughs. Use of any other
speed creates high potential for unit failure.
When making dough with a 4.25 L
(4.5 qt) tilt-head Stand Mixer, do not use
recipes calling for more than 0.87 kg
(7 cups) all-purpose flour or 0.81 kg
(6 cups) whole wheat flour.
When making dough with a 4.8 L
(5 qt) tilt-head Stand Mixer, do not use
recipes calling for more than 1.00 kg
(8 cups) all-purpose flour or 0.81 kg
(6 cups) whole wheat flour.
15

Mixing and Kneading Yeast Dough
"Rapid Mix" describes a bread baking
method that calls for dry yeast to be
mixed with other dry ingredients before
liquid is added. In contrast, the traditional
method isto dissolve yeast in warm water.
1. Place all dry ingredients including yeast
into bowl, except last 125 to 250 g
(1 to 2 cups) flour.
2. Bowl-lift Stand Mixers: Attach
bowl and dough hook. RaiseStand
Mixer bowl.
Tilt-Head Stand Mixers: Attach
bowl and dough hook. Lock Stand
Mixer head.
3. Turn to Speed 2 and mix about
15 seconds, or until ingredients
are combined.
4. Continuing on Speed 2, gradually add
liquid ingredients to flour mixture and
mix 1 to 2 minutes longer.
NOTE: If liquid ingredients are added
too quickly, they will form a pool around
the dough hook and slow down mixing
process.
Continuing on Speed 2, gently add
remaining flour, 60 g (_/2cup) at a
time, as needed. Mix until dough starts
to clean sides of bowl, about
2 minutes.
6. When dough clings to hook, knead on
Speed 2 for 2 minutes, or until dough
is smooth and elastic.
NOTE: Dust flour on the inside of bowl
and dough hook to keep dough
from sticking.
7. Bowl-Lift Stand Mixers: Lower bowl
on Stand Mixer and remove dough
from the bowl and dough hook.
Tilt-Head Stand Mixers: Unlock and
tilt back Stand Mixer head and remove
dough from the bowl and
dough hook.
8. Follow directions in recipe for rising,
shaping, and baking.
When using the traditional method to
prepare a favorite recipe, dissolve yeast
in warm water in warmed bowl. Add
remaining liquidsand dry ingredients,
except last 125 to 250 g (1 to 2 cups)
flour. Turn to Speed 2 and mix about
1 minute, or until ingredients are
thoroughly mixed. Proceed with Steps
4 through 6.
Both methods work equally well for
bread preparation. However, the "Rapid
Mix" method may be a bit faster and
easier for new bread bakers, tt is slightly
more temperature tolerant because the
yeast is mixed with dry ingredients rather
than with warm liquid.
16

Egg Whites
Placeroom temperature egg whites in
clean, dry bowl. Attach bowl and wire
whip. Toavoid splashing, gradually turn
to designated speed and whip to desired
stage. See chart below.

splashing, gradually turn to designated
speed and whip to desired stage. See
chart below.
AMOUNT SPEED
59 mL (1/4 cup)............. GRADUALLYto 10
118 mL (_/2cup)........... GRADUALLYto 10
236 mL (1 cup) .............. GRADUALLYto 8
472 mL (1 pint ) ............ GRADUALLYto 8
Whipping Stages
Watch cream closely during whipping.
Because your KitchenAid :RStand 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.
