General Tips

When mixing thin batters use medi- um speeds and frequently stop the mixer to scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula.

Place liquid ingredients in the bottom of the bowl first and then add dry ingredients.

Always stay near Mixer during use.

To begin mixing, use the low setting until the ingredients are thoroughly combined. This will reduce spattering.
