OPERATING 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
1 Stirring
2 Slow mixing,
Kneading
4 Mixing,
Beating
6 Beating,
Creaming
8-10 Fast beating,

Fast whipping
NOTE: Use Speed 2 to mix or knead yeast doughs. Use of any other speed creates high
potential for Stand Mixer failure. The dough hook efficiently kneads most yeast dough
within 4 minutes.
