Using the Mixer

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.
