Speeds 1-10: which to choose

You have lots of speeds to choose from on your bowl-lift stand mixer. This puts you in control, from gentle folding to kneading, beating and whipping. Speed levels may vary depending on the mixer model.

Speed 1/2

Folding delicate ingredients, egg whites, cream, and avoiding overmixing. Good to use for mixing berries without breaking the fruit itself.

FOLDING

product-tips-stand-mixer-bowl-lift-settings-folding

Speed 1

For slow stirring, combining, mashing and starting all mixing procedures. Use to add flour and dry ingredients to batter, and to add liquids to dry ingredients. Do not use speed 1 to mix or knead yeast dough. 

STIRRING

product-tips-stand-mixer-bowl-lift-settings-stirring

Speed 2

For slow mixing, mashing and faster stirring. Mix and knead yeast doughs, heavy batters, start mashing potatoes or other vegetables, cut shortening into flour and mix thin or splashy batters (Do not exceed speed 2 when kneading yeast doughs or you may damage the mixture).

SLOW MIXING

product-tips-stand-mixer-bowl-lift-settings-slow-mixing

Speed 4

For mixing semi-heavy batters, such as cookies. Use to combine sugar and shortening, and to add sugar to egg whites for meringues. Medium speeds for cake mixes. You can also shred cooked meats with the beater. 

MIXING, BEATING

product-tips-stand-mixer-bowl-lift-settings-mixing-beating
