HELPFUL HINTS

• If the ingredients are sifting faster than
desired, you can use the ingredient valve
to limit the rate at which ingredients flow
into the sifter.
• When releasing ingredients, it may be
necessary to flip the valve back and forth
1-2 times or tap the hopper to ensure all
ingredients are released.
• The maximum capacity of the scale is
1,000g / 2.2lbs / 2lbs 3oz, and the scale
measures in increments of 1g / 0.002lb /
0.05oz.
• Do not feed brown sugar through the
sifter, as it may clog the sifter screen.
• If ingredients become jammed in the
sifter, turn the mixer off and use a spoon
to clear the jam.
