Your Stand Mixer comes with three mixing
attachments, each is designed for a specific task.
Beater (10)
Use the Beater for creaming butter and sugar,
mixing cake mixes and making short crust pastry.
When using the Beater it is recommended to use
speeds 1-4 as higher speeds may cause
splashing.
Dough Hook (11)
The Dough Hook is designed to knead dough for
baking fresh bread. When kneading fresh dough it
is recommended to use the following
speeds/steps:
1. Speed 1 for 20-30 seconds
2. Speed 2 for 20-30 seconds
3. Then speed 3 for 3-4 minutes
•Always use the splash guard (9) to prevent dough,
creeping up the Attachment Sleeve (7).
Do not use your Stand Mixer to knead dough
continuously for longer than 5 minutes.
Whisk (12)
The Whisk is ideal for whisking egg whites and
cream. It is recommended to use the maximum
speed with this attachment.
When beating egg whites, it will take roughly 2-3
minutes to achieve soft peaks. Mix a minimum of
4 large egg whites (200ml), use a maximum of 12
egg whites at one time.
