I do not know what the 600 W power indicated on the American website is connected with, I am not strong in their model range, but my model is called according to the plate on the bottom Ankarsrum Assistent AB and has power 800W... Made in Sweden. Despite the fact that my car is 7 years old - it was practically never used. Literally a couple of dozen times during all this time. It did not work and did not work out for me with her as a dough mixer. However, I decided to load it with other functions. What if everything will grow together?)))




Today I received a DELUXE package for him, where there is a blender, a meat grinder, an attachment for puree, a grater for nuts, attachments for filling sausages, citrus press, attachment for shaping shortcrust pastry, discs for pasta. Actually, the bulk of these things are focused on the meat grinder.

To be honest, I'm in a certain culture shock from the meat grinder. This is some kind of turbine of a nuclear power plant, not a meat grinder. Having weighed it in my hand, I even ran to weigh it with my own eyes. 1518gr. No top tray. Kitchen meat grinder attachment weighs 630g. Compare yes?) I have a separately powerful Bosch meat grinder, which I use for a really large amount of meat in processing. Every day, it was the plastic meat grinder Kitchen that worked in the wings for many years. She is already about 10 years old, no one spared her, she used to go in the tail, and even cracked in the mane and plastic, which is why she was pulled together with a clamp)). I decided that Kitchen was already overloaded with work, it's time to torment the idle Arkasha)). The meat grinder amazed.In the photo, she does not look so impressive. Well, meat grinder and meat grinder. In real life, I was a little stunned. Haven't used it yet, but can't wait to try it. I was very pleased with the presence of a disc with 8mm holes. I suppose for samsa, manti, that is, products with rather coarsely minced meat. Finally, I want to take out the whipping bowl, which has not been used for so many years (!!!). Brand new. Well, if I have not yet been imbued with the dough-mixing qualities of this machine, suddenly I will be imbued with the rest))

Here is the Kitchen meat grinder and the working part (without the upper tray) of the Arkasha meat grinder in comparison. Discs too. The discs are simply compared to a child's toy with a tank.

Place of attachment to the combine. On Kitchen, you probably see cracks on the hull. However, we must pay tribute: both with them and with the clamp, Kitchen has been plowing for a year and a half)).

And this is to imagine the scale of the tragedy in comparison with my hand:

There is a great desire and interest to try the machine for extruding paste. The meat grinder (to which the pasta disks are attached) makes an impressive impression, but at the same time I am the proud owner of the Philliers pasta machine. However, Phillips' and Arkasha's curly paste disks do not match. The Swede has thin pasta with a hole (this is the famous macaroni, which gave the name to all pasta in Russian - pasta), flat pasta of various widths / thicknesses, and spaghetti. In my opinion, even thicker than Philips' ones, although I wanted thinner)). In short, I'll take a picture.
Owners of the Ankarsrum dough-combine harvester, support group, sympathizers and just curious - join the party so that I don't die of boredom here alone!

Yes !!! Bombic meat grinder. Arkasha. And I liked my experience of kneading dough in Arkash. Now it's up to field work.

support group, sympathetic and just curious

hello)))
for me this spaceship is not available (for now, what? everything can be)
Nata, why didn't it grow together with the dough? I remember you wrote somewhere that how the old HP Panas kneads the dough is the best for you - you know how many years it reassured me from buying a dough mixer or planetary mixer))
until I went to other volumes or tried to make sausages
I'll be happy to see what you have there, how it goes with this luxury set)))
Good luck in learning

maybe even in the tests it will be possible to participate

[Nata]

Nata, boom to wait for tests and reports! They are always bombastic!

Scarecrow, Nata, what does the Cookie Whippers look like?, I don't have a Training DVD in my kit.

He has another 3.5 L bowl for beating and shortcrust pastry with two whisks. And there is a meat grinder attachment for extruding shortcrust pastry and molding cookies. What was meant by a beater in this case, I do not really understand. But either of these two things, I think.

🔗

Come on, Natakh, burn !!!!!!!
Once I really wanted this unit, then I wanted to calm down, this spring I needed an unit for mixing a large amount of yeast, I kind of looked at it again, but in the end I grabbed a professional floor dough mixer)
I am looking forward to your tests and reports !!!

grabbed the professional floor dough mixer

and where about this exciting story to look at?)

Katya, but there is nowhere to read, I did not write about it)

I'm at the dacha, so the text is short. I love Arkasha very dearly. The meat grinder is excellent, with the help of it, the sausages have already been made. The dough for bread, as well as pies and so on are also in it. He has a great blender for smoothies. I have never made pasta and cookies. I chose between Kitchen and Arkasha, I chose him.

Oh, but maybe about smoothies, where to see the recipe).And according to Arkasha, I have a second bowl and transparent plastic, I think it will crack if it falls.

[Evuschk_a]

Evuschk_a, Tanya-Admin smoothie recipes, look, she has a lot

I tormented my Arkasha diligently today. I decided to try paste disks. But only the abnormal follow the instructions. Particularly gifted - they do what they want, what took it into their heads. I'm from the second)).

So, the instructions say that you need to make a dough from 350g of hard flour and 2 eggs. The usual rule is 100g flour - 1 egg is trampled here almost 2 times. Eggs, of course, are different, but not to the same extent, it seems to me. Although it is suggested to add some lukewarm water if the dough is dry and crumbly. Knead the dough, let it stand and toss for extrusion in pieces the size of a walnut.
I decided that I would go my own way - I’m the smartest and most experienced, haha, you Swedes!)) - and first I would make wet dough crumbs according to Phillips proportions (at the same time I torment the blender) and pour it into the pasta. After all, in Phillips, of all this, chic pasta, with the Kitchen pasta nozzle, also baked. Brilliant, right? Yeah, not this time)). Arkasha's blender did not want to turn the flour and eggs taken with the addition of water (for 1 cup from Philips pastam machine) into any crumb at all. I changed the speed, gave out sacred words to the Universe, periodically poked with a spatula, but nothing helped: it immediately formed a funnel around the knives and the rest of the mass froze along the walls. Having suffered a lot with it, I pulled out the chopping bowl from the Brown hand blender and after 15 seconds I had a wet dough crumb .. It should be noted, however, that Arkasha even had a different shape of knives in the blender. And, apparently, it matters.

Delighted, I dumped it all on the feeder tray, intending to push the portions of dough inside with a pusher. The disc is set for thin pasta with a hole. At the exit I received this. Moreover, very similar to my latest attempt to sculpt a Phillips penne: they were tattered, shaggy, with longitudinal holes on the sides and all that.))
🔗

I had fun with my husband for a long time and decided to change tactics - to use soft durum dough, which I had ready to use. It is relatively soft, of course, I make dumplings from this. But, in any case, it is much softer than the classic pasta dough. All the more tiny. I got this:

Then I decided to plug the very first tough dough, which was at first a crumb, but after the experiment, I just blinded it into a lump and let it lie in a bag. This was just the closest to the test from the instructions. It turned out much better. We can say that it worked out fine. Considering that this is still pasta with holes, that is, not so simple products.

Then I decided to change the disc, because I also have complaints about the quality of the resulting pennies in the pasta machine. That is, pasta with holes is a rather complicated type of pasta in "execution". I took a simple disc - flat pasta like fettuccine. But then I burst into the dough, because, already wanting to quit this wonderful occupation, I blinded together both a tough dough and a soft dough for dumplings. And only then I got the idea to try another disc. As a result, I extruded something average in consistency, which of course tends to stick together, but not as much as pure soft dough)).

Conclusion: of course, you have to jump with the selection of the consistency of the dough. This is always the # 1 problem, and in shepherds too. Of course, it is more problematic to deal with it than with a pasta, because at the same time it is necessary to throw in pieces of dough (tearing off and rolling balls the size of a walnut), and to keep an eye on the creeping pasta, to cut them off in time and all that. But the machine copes, does not complain, does not puff strained, although it warms up. Moreover, the extruder itself (it is a meat grinder) is heated, not the engine.

I tried citruspress in the case. No complaints. The machine works powerfully, does not complain or even practically does not notice the efforts to squeeze out the juice (the engine sound does not change). I made the plum chili. It needs lemon juice. Soon I will cook citrus chili and hello citruspress will be again)).

Even though I'm here talking to myself, like a lonely wanderer)), but I will continue.)) Meat grinder. I liked it very much. Powerful, calm, fast.

None)). We are mulberries, in the bushes, lying in silent admiration!

[Rita]

Rita,

Do not lie in the bushes tama cold!)) Better hang out with me)).

Hanging out - we are always happy)). Current, I'm afraid, in view of the absence of this miracle device, we will not be able to maintain the conversation at the proper level)). We can repeat the current "wow" !!!!!

[Rita]

Rita,

This is yes. We have owners of Arkasha, although not in large quantities, but in my opinion, there are no owners of attachments.

Meat grinder. I liked it very much. Powerful, calm, fast.

Natasha, how is it compared to the Kitchen meat grinder?

[Scarecrow]

Scarecrow, Nata, he is excellent in business. The citrus press really liked the groove on the protruding part where you press the fruit. And the speed control is also important. It seems like at low speed the juice is not cloudy. It doesn't matter for you to add to dishes, but for drinking, probably, a significant moment.

The meat grinder is really top class. I suspected it was a super-gorgeous nozzle, but still the thickness of the grates is absolutely impressive. They did not spare the metal for their manufacture. Chopped meat, not squeezed - gorgeous!

There are practically no residues in the bunker in the knife area, I suppose?

[Svetlenki]

Svetlenki,

I usually shove in a piece of raw potato or rye bread at the end. They never harmed any minced meat, especially in scanty quantities, and almost everyone remains inside, pushing out the remains of the meat. There is a total of a jumble of veins of meat and shag onions with a large walnut. I fed the dog).

Yes. I also paid attention to the gutter, a design feature. Today I will try to take pictures of how the meat grinder is attached to the base. There is also an interesting constructive solution. I didn't take it off right away and it was inconvenient to show it with one hand.

Natasha, how is it compared to the Kitchen meat grinder?

Natasha, at the very top there are photos of comparing the Ankarsrum and Kitchen meat grinder. Take a look. I specially photographed them side by side and compared them. Ankarsrum is much more serious and fundamental. It is heavier, more massive in all parts and entirely metal.

No, I mean the quality of the work. Is kitschen losing too much?

[caprice23]

caprice23,

Well, Ankarsrum "ate" such beef without choking. Kitchen processes rather tough meat, it happened to me that you can see how the plastic case changes the geometry a little. If a hard piece winds around the knife. The engine may also work harder on coarse pieces.

The quote is below and the answer is here. Features of reading the site on the phone. Nata, you collect very valuable material on ankarsrum, thank you. By the way, there are no analogues not only in Russian, but also in English. You do their job for marketers. The videos are sensible and to the point. I'll get insolent and ask - do you have a tripod for your phone? It would be more convenient for you to make a video. The meat grinder impressed me very much, very much.

[Svetlenki]

Svetlenki,

Svetka, exactly! There is a tripod! I do ... Klusha, in short. Yes, with a phone holder, by the way. I shot a video on the Kitchen dough sheeter with his help!)).

The tripod has not been found yet)). I took off what a meat grinder looks like:

And this is the grill for pate and fish:

A meat grinder is a beast, a dog is an animal))) Scarecrow is a test experimenter))
Cavo stuffing? There will be cKlets, right?

[Nata]

Nata, oh, for some reason the minced fish impressed me even more than the minced meat - it doesn't jam at all. An interesting way of attaching to the meat grinder.

[Katko]

Katko,

From pink salmon. Awesome cutlets turned out. Garnish with lemon rice.

From pink salmon. Awesome cutlets turned out. Garnish with lemon rice.

Could you please be more detailed? The composition of minced meat and when to throw lemon into rice?

The meat grinder is super!

[Svetlenki]

Svetlenki,

Lemon rice:

What are you cooking in? I'm in a rice cooker (Panasonic), well, in a cartoon, it's shorter. Therefore, I will write on the standard multi cups (they are 160ml, as far as I remember, most of the multi cups).
4 cups rice
finely grated zest from 1 whole normal and non-small lemon
juice of half a lemon
white pepper
salt
2 cloves of garlic
parsley bunch leaves without pounded stems
a piece of butter gram for 50-70

Rice is well washed to clear water, pour water according to the instructions, put the zest, butter in a piece straight, salt, pepper, put to cook. In the middle of cooking, throw in the garlic crushed by the plane of a knife and pour in lemon juice (do not stir anything, do not touch rice!). At the very end, before turning off or as soon as turning off - finely chopped parsley. Now the rice can be mixed and served. I really like it, there is a zest aroma and a slight sourness, light. She came up with it herself, yes)). Garlic can be granulated at the end instead of fresh. also without fanaticism, just give a note.

I make fish cakes the only way:

Fish meatballs in sauce (recipe for catering establishments, 1955) (Scarecrow)

Of course, without sauce, then roll in breadcrumbs and fry. Minced meat should be tender, but sticky. If anything - add water / cream / milk. This is juiciness. Fry onions just a must have and also in a bunch through a meat grinder, so that small people do not poke around.)) Bread is decent, but I put a little less bread in cutlets than in meatballs, and it is 2-3 days old, we have already said this with you where and discussed, in my opinion. Not crackers, not fresh, but seasoned. I usually put butter, I almost never have lard. Only salted food. I haven't verified the proportions for a long time either, because I know that there should be decent bread, no egg, no butter - by eye, but generously enough and better very cold (like minced meat). Sculpt and fry straight from this - the juiciness is higher, because the grains of butter are already melting in the prepared cutlet.

4 cups rice

what kind of rice do we take? Kuban?

Everything else is clear. Thank you.

Can't you serve the sauce next to the cutlets?

I ask just in case. Maybe you didn't mention it because you think that everyone knows and can.

[Svetlenki]

Svetlenki,
Take any rice !! I'm omnivorous!)) I love italica, jasmine, basmati, Kuban and so on. Better take the type of Kuban or Italica. Italica is generally my favorite, bright, distinctive taste (it is round-grain).
I love bechamel for fish or mornais (bechamel with cheese, option - blue cheese). But! I think that yesterday's version would have been an overkill of tastes. Better to make the cutlets juicy, butter in rice and serve vegetables. Rice has a delicate citrus aroma with a hint of parsley and garlic, and pour it over with cheese sauce, especially my favorite blue one - it's overkill. Will score everything. Only if the classic bechamel, if you want a sauce.

[Scarecrow]

Yes, yes and yes, Scarecrow, I took your advice into account and the fishcakes turned out to be juicy!
I had two fish, two pollock and two mackerel, fried three small onions and one carrot, added lard (at least 300g for about 800 g of fish fillet), ran everything through a fine mesh, however, I forgot to squeeze out the excess water, so I thickened the minced meat three tablespoons of semolina (with white bread we have an eternal strain :-)), well, an egg, + favorite spices. Very nice!
I will make a casserole from the minced meat leftovers by adding melted cheese.

We had the simplest sauce - mayonnaise with dill, but you couldn't add another to boiled potatoes. :-)

[Crown]

Crown,

Galya, why are you talking about YOU? I am absolutely on "you", do not confuse me, otherwise I will start to complex!))

[Scarecrow]

Scarecrow, do not pay attention, I am to all of you, I have such a habit.

Good day.
Is this machine suitable for kneading minced meat, for example sausages?

[Alexey Shmatov]

Alexey Shmatov,

I doubt it. In my opinion, minced meat is kneaded with a K-shaped attachment (I knead in Kitchen. Not for sausage, really). The device of the bowl and rollers Ankarsrum is specific. If the dough is "monolith" and stretches in a layer, then the minced meat does not have such a bunch.
