It additionally simply tackled kneading a fundamental bread loaf, a problem that extra funds stand mixers can battle with. Lastly, the pace management allowed me to completely whip egg whites into coconut meringues.

Regardless that the 4-litre bowl dimension is smaller than the kMix, I discovered that it dealt with the recipe portions simply. Until you are practising a showstopper, I doubt you may discover the smaller dimension.

The stand mixer was really easy to scrub up that I used to be in a position to bash out all three recipes in a single afternoon. I am nonetheless somewhat in shock that I managed it.
