KitchenAid Mixer

My KitchenAid mixer came from the states, the parcel went for two weeks, pretty quickly, the packaging was a regular box, the styrofoam recipe book combined with the instruction, a separate 220-110 volt transformer, a heavy transformer, the usual equipment, a whisk. a hook, a spatula, though there is no plastic protective cover, but I was the one who screwed up, it turns out that there are various configurations, I thought that it was a mandatory accessory, but oh well, I already found where I would order, the issue price is 15,000 rubles with delivery.
I tried to knead for 500 g of flour, it interferes normally, but at a small (1 speed) with an effort, I think I can't cope with a dumpling dough for 1 kg. I drove about 30 minutes to make a biscuit, then again the dough, the machine is warm until everything suits me.

How do you like Kitchen at work? Do you use it often? Generally a necessary thing? I want to use it exactly as a kneader. Does he handle the test? I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.

So I didn't understand if he copes with dumplings and yeast dough or not? I so want it just as a kneader!

It copes with yeast dough with a bang, with rye it is also normal up to 1.5 kg. dough, I haven't tried more, I have to cope with dumplings, the question is in quantity? but you still have to work with your hands.
For myself, I concluded that with the transition from kneading in a bread machine to a kneader, the level of productivity and quality of baked products increased significantly!

Anyone who is interested in Kitchen Aid, but does not like the price of 30 thousand - they are now being sold on Ebay at a normal price and sent to Russia!

I bought, I bought Kenwood ... but I bought Kitchen and he came to me today
The topic was helpful in making a decision, so many thanks to everyone

separate transformer 220-110 volt, heavy transformer, standard equipment,

Tell me, where was it ordered?

I tried to knead for 500 g of flour, it interferes normally, but at a small (1 speed) with an effort, I think I can't cope with a dumpling dough for 1 kg. I drove about 30 minutes to make a biscuit, then again the dough, the machine is warm until everything suits me.

I have a Bosch 4655-I want to change because of this. And you have a super duper and the same thing. I do not get it. if, too, with effort, what is the point?

I bought, I bought Kenwood ... but I bought Kitchen and he came to me today

Galya, when did you manage to grab Kitchen? !!!
Well, tell me !!

Mash, just before the New Year. My husband and I went to buy Kenwood with confidence, but after talking with a consultant (a very rare case of a sensible seller) we bought Kitchen and another Bork stove to a heap

Well you give !!
What did the seller say about Kenwood?
Is there plastic inside?

Yes, he did not say anything special, he just took the mixers and demonstrated the work of both, and the issue was resolved

As I understand it, as a kneader, it does not fit. If you use it only for batter, then it seems to me that everyone can handle it.
Question. who can handle the tight dough?
Please advise. I have a Bosch 4655. and all attachments. to him. With batter and he copes. Only at the 2nd speed does the dough climb onto the hook, starts buzzing and a cup of that will fly out. With generally tight seams.
And I found Kitchen by power and 300-315-500-600 watts.
All over the hill.

+ Gala +, Gal, so what caught you in Kitchen?

pushkarKenwood is a good tough dough knead. I made dumplings. I have a Chef 560-08

[+ Gala +]

+ Gala +, Gal, so what caught you in Kitchen?

The sound of a working mixer, which is characteristic of all high-quality mechanisms, works quite quietly
It is stable and massive, if the kenwood can be easily moved from its place with a slight movement of the hand, then the kitschen cannot be easily moved, which is important when kneading hard dough
The meat grinder is connected to the mixer without backlash, the connection is tight, does not dangle during operation
Made in the States
Stylish design

[+ Gala +]

+ Gala +Gal, what kind of Kenwood did you move easily? You definitely can't move mine)
It's strange.
But kitschen is cool, I wanted it too, but Kenwood won)

But there is 110 voltage. I need to buy a transformer ...

+ Gala +, Gal, what kind of Kenwood did you move easily?

Mashun, I don't even remember which one was on sale. And it doesn't matter already, I made my choice, you are happy with yours and it's great!

Galya, what is your power? What is the volume of the bowl?

[Kamusik]

Kamusik, bowl volume 4.8 l, power 300 W

Well, even kill me, I can't understand the power of 300-350 and Kenwood-1000. Both are great, isn't power the main indicator? I'm just looking for ... One day I want Kitchen, the next Kenwood. How to make the right choice?

Kitchen has 300 watts rated power
And at kenwood 1000w maximum.

Natasha has already answered about the power

Do not confuse constant and pulsed power (peak). These are two big differences. Kitchen has a constant that he can maintain for 10 minutes without any problems. Most devices write about the peak.

Then the question is, what is Kesha's nominal?

The sound of a working mixer, which is characteristic of all high-quality mechanisms, works quite quietly

PPKS, the husband is delighted with the sound, the transformer was not a problem to buy.

Who faced the question of buying a transformer, please tell me where you can get it?

The main thing - DO NOT take Chinese junk. The power is great. The transformer certainly has no place in the kitchen, but, unfortunately, not all KithenAid models lend themselves to alteration to 220V.

Better to take another "Soviet" model, iron and reliable. We bought the Tula Calm. There were no problems with the purchase.

We tried today to knead a dough of 350 and 450 grams of flour on the KitchenAid Professional 5 Plus. Nothing works, the flour remains at the bottom. You can, of course, stop and stir by hand with a spatula, but it still does not work out well.

Height adjustment does not help. And for some reason it is possible to rotate only 90 degrees, although according to the instructions, 90 degrees should be adjusted in both directions.

Maybe you can buy a smaller bowl or somehow solve this problem? Or do you just need to attach a mixer and take a smaller one for your needs?

[alexthunder]

alexthunder, then your proportions are not correct. Bowl and hook have nothing to do with it.
Flour gathers itself into dough during kneading.
If there is flour at the bottom, then there is not enough liquid. And if the dough is thin at the bottom, it means that there is little flour.

Thank you! Then we will try again.

It turned out that this proportion was normally kneaded by hands, but it did not work with a mixer.

How to determine the correct proportion for a given mixer? KitchenAid recipes?

Yes, I forgot to ask, and how much dough did you knead?
And I can see a photo of how the flour remains at the bottom. And the hook, as I understand it, was lowered?

In the first case, there was 350 grams of flour. The video was filmed on the phone, so I apologize for the quality



In the second case, there was 400 grams of flour and much more liquid.

I tried to lower the hook, but the regulator only worked 90 degrees and raised it.Then there was a click, and in the opposite direction after that it returned 90 degrees to its initial position, from where it was impossible to turn it another 90 even with great effort.

[alexthunder]

alexthunder, what can I say, your hook doesn't even reach the ingredients in the bowl. He crawls over the flour. Maybe of course it should be.
It turns out that Kitchen cannot knead so little dough. Knead into 500 g flour.
And it also seemed to me that the hook sits high.
And most likely because of this, he cannot knead so little dough.
On my kenwood, the hook sits lower and it can be adjusted, but it says that it is not necessary.

We'll have to really try 500 grams, although this is a bit too much for our family.
Unfortunately, apparently Professional models are intended for other volumes.

I knead the dough (dumplings, yeast) first with a triangular nozzle, when it is already collected, changing the nozzle to a hook. Everything is fine, even the bowl is clean after such a batch.

girls I bought a mixer like this 🔗 from America, but I didn’t know that I needed a transformer, but I just bought an adapter for their outlet, I decided today to see how my mixer would work, I just turned on how I turned off the counter ..... something shorted out .... I'm shocked, damn it now I don't know what to do, will it work now ...... girls and what transformer should I buy for this mixer?

Trance from 220 to 110. Downward. There in the description it is written, voltage 120V

[pushkar]

pushkar Thank you! I hope my mixer will work

The step-down transformer also needs to be taken as a normal one. Moreover, we are talking about the kitchen. We took the Tula Calm. This is a heavy, reliable Soviet design. It is imperative to choose taking into account the power of the mixer. I do not recommend Chinese crafts (if you take them, then at least with a double power reserve).

If it doesn't work, then app. parts will have to be transported from the USA. But the simple models, which have analogs for 220 V in Russia, have already been altered by the craftsmen for our network. So experience with app. parts have already been described.

I confirm. I also have a Tula Calm (who would doubt it))). I use Zodzirushi on HP, I have Kitchen for 220V.

The Chinese people first burned the stove. So be careful with the downsides.

but tell me which is better to take: a mixer with attachments or a food processor (both Artisan).

and if you take a mixer here, and order nozzles from America, will nozzles fit? there should be no difference between European and American models other than voltage.

Better in Germany. And 220 and all inclusive. Why America is not clear.

I myself have taken Kenwood 10 in Germany. Here it will come. The price difference is not comparable. Kitchens are there in bulk and everything is 220. I can give a link if necessary.

and if you take a mixer here, and order nozzles from America, will nozzles fit? there should be no difference between European and American models other than voltage.

so in the USA Kitchenade mixers are also different, and they have nozzles for certain models.

America because now the package is piling up and will soon be sending to Russia.

Even if sent by sea, delivery is still expensive from America. Except for the international delivery program of the Ibei auction.

Hello everyone! I also bought myself a mixer from the USA, professional 600, the transformer should come one of these days, but now, alas, I don't even try it)) There is such a book MIX WITH THE BEST, no one has a case? Or another recipe book written specifically for KitchenAid? Found only L'essentiel de la cuisine par Kitchenaid - by Kay Halsey

Can you please tell me if the roller knives for pasta are convenient to use?

Can you please tell me if the roller knives for pasta are convenient to use?

We have used them only once so far, but were satisfied.

Girls, I really need help !!! Help out. I ordered the 5th series of 450V from the states, and I can't choose a transformer, I don't know what power to take, in one store they say 2 times, that is, at 800-1000V, in the calm they said that 1.6 would even be small. Tell us which ones do you have?

Are you sure you want to know the details of the power from the girls?
We have an autotransformer "Shtil" AT 220 / 110-1,0-50, a mixer also for 450 W. So far, no recipes have come across where maximum power is required, but on the recommendation of an authorized dealer, they took this particular model. In a personal, I threw a link with more detailed information.

I have a LATR (laboratory autotransformer) dating back to Soviet times, my husband slightly altered LATR. Now there are 2 modes, 110V and from 0-220V to choose from, power 1 kW. There is a kitschen classic (according to the passport 275W).
