Mixing Guide1. For even and thorough mixing, slowly
guide the beaters around the sides and
through the centre of the bowl in the
same direction. Do not overmix.
2. Always stop the mixer by moving the
speed control switch to the ‘0’ OFF
position before raising the beaters out of
the mixing bowl.
3. When adding ingredients or scraping the
bowl, stop the mixer and rest it on it’s
base with the bowl below the beaters to
catch any mixture draining from the
beaters.

mixtures such as sponge cake, use Speed

5. Always start mixing at slow speeds.
Gradually increase to the recommended
speed as stated in the recipe.

ensuring there is no yolk in the egg

using a plastic mixing bowl, rub the
inside of the bowl with

dry thoroughly.
