OPERATING THE MIXER
Planetary Mixing Action
Planetary mixing action is similar to the
mixing action used by commercial mixers
in bakeries and patisseries with 360 degree
beater-to-bowl coverage. This is achieved by
the counter-clockwise motion of the mixer
head combined with the clockwise sweep of
the accessory. The result is thoroughly mixed
ingredients without the need for a rotating
bowl.
Attach the appropriate accessory for the
mixing task required, using the following
guide.
The Scraper Beater
The double-sided scraper beater with its
soft edges has been specifically designed to
repeatedly scrape around the bowl during
mixing, better incorporating ingredients
throughout the entire mixture. It is the perfect
accessory for creaming butter and sugar,
mixing sticky ingredient or folding egg whites
to make:
− Frosting and icing
− Cheesecakes
− Flavoured butters
− Muffin batters
− Creaming butter and sugar
– Light to medium cake batters
Additionally, due to the efficient mixing action
of the Scraper Beater, the mixing time of many
recipes may be reduced. Refer to the Scraper
Beater table for approximate mixing times.
These are a guide only. Longer mixing times
may be required for larger quantities.

Tips
TIPS FOR BETTER BREAD MAKING
• Check the ingredients and read the recipe
before starting to bake.
• Measure ingredients accurately. Weighing
is more accurate than measuring by volume.
To accurately measure water please note that
1ml water = 1g.
• Don’t use hot water or liquids as this can kill
the yeast. Water and liquids should be added
at a tepid temperature.
• Don’t use self-raising flour to make yeasted
bread unless recipe states otherwise.
• If the weather is hot and humid, reduce the
yeast by ¼ teaspoon to avoid over rising of
the dough.
• Flour properties can alter on a seasonal or
storage basis, so it may be necessary to adjust
the water and flour ratio. If the dough is too
sticky, add extra flour 1 tablespoon at a time
if the dough is too dry, add extra water 1
teaspoon at a time. A few minutes is needed
for these extra ingredients to be absorbed.
Dough with the correct amount of flour and
water should form into a smooth, round ball
that is damp to the touch but not sticky.
Warm area for rising
• Yeast, either when sponging or in the dough,
requires warmth to rise. To create a ‘warm
area’ for dough to rise, place baking tray over
a bowl of fairly warm water, place prepared
dough item on baking tray, cover loosely with
lightly greased thicker-style plastic wrap or
a tea towel. Ensure kitchen is warm and free
of draughts. Allow the dough to rise until
doubled in size.
VITAL INGREDIENTS FOR BREAD MAKING
Flour is the most important ingredient used for
bread making. It provides food for the yeast and
gives structure to the loaf. When mixed with
liquid, the protein in the flour starts to form
gluten. Gluten is a network of elastic strands
that interlock to trap the gases produced by
yeast. This process increases as the dough
continues kneading and provides the structure
required to produce the weight and shape of the
baked bread.
White wheat flour sold as baker’s bread flour
or plain flour may be used. Plain flour is most
readily available; however, best results are
obtained with flour at least 11% protein content.
Wholemeal wheat flour contains the bran, germ
and flour of the wheat grain. Although breads
baked with this type of flour will be higher in
fibre, the loaf may be heavier in texture. Lighter
textured bread can be achieved by replacing
160g of wholemeal flour with white bread flour.
Rye flour popular for bread making, is low
in protein so it is essential to combine rye
flour with bread flour to make the bread rise
successfully.
Gluten flour is made by extracting the gluten
portion from the wheat grain. Adding gluten
flour can improve the structure and quality
of bread when using low-protein, plain, stone
ground and wholemeal flour.
Bread mixes contain flour, sugar, milk, salt, oil
and other ingredients such as bread improver.
Usually only the addition of water and yeast is
required.
Bread improvers are available in supermarkets.
The ingredients in a bread improver are usually
a food acid such as ascorbic acid (Vitamin C)
and other enzymes (amylases) extracted from
wheat flours. Adding a bread improver will help
strengthen the dough resulting in a loaf that is
higher in volume, softer in texture, more stable
and has improved shelf life qualities.

Sugar provides sweetness and flavour, browns
the crust and produces food for the yeast.
White sugar, brown sugar, honey and golden
syrup are all suitable to use. When using
honey or golden syrup it must be counted as
additional liquid.
Powdered milk and milk products enhance the
flavour and increase the nutritional value of
bread. Powdered milk is convenient and easy
to use.
Salt is an important ingredient in bread
making. In the dough, salt increases water
absorption, improves kneading, strengthens
the gluten development and controls
fermentation of the yeast which results in
improved loaf shape, crumb structure, crust
colour, flavour and keeping qualities. As salt
inhibits the rising of bread be accurate when
measuring.
Fat adds flavour and retains the moisture.
Vegetable oils such as sunflower, canola,
etc. can be used. Butter or margarine can be
substituted for oil in recipes but may give a
yellow coloured crumb.
Yeast is used as the raising agent for the breads
and requires liquid, sugar and warmth to grow
and rise. Before using dried yeast always check
the use by date, as stale yeast will prevent the
bread from rising.
Water If using water in cold climates or from
the refrigerator, allow water to come to room
temperature. Extremes of hot or cold water will
prevent the yeast activating.
Eggs can be used in some bread recipes and
provide liquid, aid rising and increase the
nutritional value of the bread. They add flavour
and softness to the crumb and are usually used
in sweeter types of bread.
Other ingredients such as fruit, nuts, chocolate
chips, etc., required to remain whole in the
baked bread, should be suspended in the
dough. These ingredients should be gradually
added during the kneading and before the
dough rises for the first time.
TIPS FOR BETTER CAKE &
PASTRY MAKING
• Check the ingredients and read the recipe
before starting to bake.
• Measure ingredients accurately. Weighing is
more accurate than measuring by volume.
• Preheat oven before starting recipe
preparation, this will ensure the correct
temperature is achieved before baking starts.
• Temperature and cooking times may vary
with some ovens so adjust accordingly.
If using a fan forced oven, reduce the
temperatures in the recipes by 10–20°C.
• When mixing, start the mixer at a lower speed
then gradually increase to the recommended
speed in the recipe especially when adding
dry ingredients.
• When using smaller quantities turn off the
mixer from time to time and scrape the bowl
with a spatula.
• Ensure beaters and mixing bowl are clean,
dry and free of fats when whipping egg
whites as these will impede aeration.
• Lightly grease trays and cake pans with
melted butter, oil or an oil spray and line
with non-stick baking paper; this will make
removing your baked goods easier.
• Butter should be softened to room
temperature to make creaming butter and
sugar easier.
• Keep surfaces and ingredients chilled when
making, handling or rolling out pastry. Butter
for pastry making should be kept refrigerated.
• Avoid stretching pastry when rolling out as
it will shrink when baking. Use light, even
strokes in one direction and avoid pressing
down hard on the rolling pin. Where possible,
rest pastry in the refrigerator before baking.
• Eggs and egg whites should be at room
temperature. Adding room temperature eggs
to cake mixes will also prevent curdling of the
butter mixture.
• Separate eggs individually into another
container before adding to other ingredients
to avoid potential spoilage.
21
• Separate egg whites carefully to avoid
inclusion of egg yolks. Egg yolks contain fat
and will prevent successful whipping of egg
whites.
• Rinse beaten egg residue from beater and
mixing bowl or other utensils with cold water
immediately after use. Using hot water will
set the egg and make cleaning difficult.
• Test if cakes are cooked 5 minutes before end
of recommended cooking time by inserting a
metal or wooden skewer into the centre of the
cake. The skewer should come out clean or
with small dry crumbs on it.
• For crisper results when baking biscuits,
remove the baking trays from the oven
and place directly onto wire racks. Move
the biscuits slightly away from their baked
position on the trays and cool completely
before removing.
VITAL INGREDIENTS FOR CAKE &
PASTRY MAKING
Flour such as plain, self-raising and wholemeal,
used for cake and pastry making should be
lower in protein (gluten) than flour used for
bread making.
Plain flour has a lower protein (gluten) content
than bread flour, and gives baked products,
such as cakes, muffins, pastries, scones and
pancakes, a softer texture.
Self-raising flour is a blend of plain flour and
raising agents such as baking powder. Self-
raising flour can be used in recipes to replace
plain flour and baking powder. To make 1 cup
self-raising flour sift together 1 cup plain flour
and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
Wholemeal flour contains more parts of the
whole wheat grain – flour, bran and wheat germ
– and can be used in muffins, breads and pie
cases but will have a denser texture.
Cornflour is traditionally made from maize
(corn) and is used in some baked products to
give a finer texture and can also be used as a
starch to thicken sauces and desserts.
Rice flour is derived from rice and is used to
give a finer texture in baked products such as
shortbread biscuits.
Baking powder is a mixture of cream of tartar
and bicarbonate of soda and is used as a
raising agent in baking.
Bicarbonate of soda, also known as baking
soda, is an ingredient in baking powder and
can be used as an additional raising agent .
Butter will give particular flavour and soft
texture to baked products. Margarine can
replace butter to give a similar result. Oil can
be used in some baking to replace butter
but will give texture and flavour differences.
If using oil, use a light flavoured oil like
vegetable, sunflower or grapeseed oil. Using
stronger flavoured oils, like nut and olive oils,
will affect the flavour of the cake.
Eggs should be at room temperature to
give better volume when making cakes and
sponges.
Milk should be full cream unless specified.
Light, low fat or skim milk can be used but will
give texture and flavour differences.
Sugar (white crystal sugar) is used to give
flavour, texture and colour to baked products.
Caster sugar is often used in baking as it is
easier to dissolve when creaming butter and
sugar.
Brown sugar is also easy to dissolve and can
be used to give a different flavour and texture.
The large crystals of raw sugar are slower to
dissolve and can be suitable for baked products
such as muffins.

MEASURING & WEIGHING
The accuracy of measurements can affect the
critical balance of the recipe. Use accurate and
appropriate measuring equipment to ensure
the best results.
Dry measuring cups & spoons
For dry ingredients, use nested plastic or metal
dry measuring cups and spoons. Do not use
tableware cups or spoons.
It is important to spoon or scoop the dry
ingredients loosely into the cup. Do not tap the
cup or pack the ingredients into the cup unless
otherwise directed (e.g. packed brown sugar).
The extra amount gained from packing or
tapping down ingredients can affect the critical
balance of your recipe. Level the top of the cup
by sweeping the excess with the back of a knife.
When using measuring spoons for either liquid
or dry ingredients such as yeast, sugar, salt, dry
milk or honey, measurements should be level,
not heaped.
Liquid measuring cups
For liquid ingredients, use transparent plastic
or glass liquid measuring cups with the
measurements marked clearly on the side.
Measuring cup must be on a flat and horizontal
surface. An inaccurate measurement can affect
the critical balance of the recipe.
Units of measurement
Some units of measurement are different in
different countries. Please consider the guide
below if using recipes, or equipment, from
international sources.

PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION
Mixer will not work when switched ON
•
Check the power cord is correctly plugged into the
outlet and the outlet is on.
•
Always ensure the speed control dial is in the
OFF (0) position before starting.
•
Ensure the motor head is locked into a
horizontal position.
•
Ensure the Pause feature has not been engaged.
•
The temperature overload protection (manual reset
cut-out switch ) device has not fully reset; allow more
time for the motor to cool down.
Cannot set the time on the count-down timer
•
Always ensure the speed control dial is in the OFF (0)
position before trying to set the count-down time.
Mixer suddenly switches off during mixing
•
The mixer has been stressed by overloading or
stalling. The mixer will automatically activate the
overload protection and the unit will switch off. The
“E1”, "E2" or "E3" error message is flashing on the timer
display. If this happens, turn the speed control dial
back to the OFF (0) position. Turn the mixer off at the
power outlet and unplug it for at least 30 minutes. The
overload protection device will reset, and the mixer
will be ready to use again when it powers back into
standby mode.
Noise is heard when scraper beater is mixing.
•
When ingredients are in the mixing bowl, the scraper
beater may make a slight noise as it scrapes the sides
and bottom of the bowl. This is normal and should
not cause concern. Do not turn the mixer on with the
scraper beater in place if the mixing bowl is empty.
This will cause the scraper beater to make a loud noise
as it scrapes the bowl.
