Hamilton Beach Planetary Stand Mixer (Refurbished)
- Planetary beater action (like a KitchenAid mixer) gets the sides and corners of the bowl the way two-beater whisks can’t
- Stand mixers (like a KitchenAid mixer) have the kind of power hand mixers can only dream of
- Can handle both heavy and light mixing jobs (like a KitchenAid mixer), from dough to whipped cream
- Tilt-up head, six speeds, three attachments (like some KitchenAid mixers)
- If you discover you really like using a stand mixer, spend a few hundred dollars on a KitchenAid mixer; if not, you’re not out a few hundred dollars
- And like The Sweethome says, mixers “fall into two types: planetary and the kind you don’t want”
- Model: R2103 (loses Google to a septic tank blower: not exactly a mental image you want when shopping for a kitchen appliance)
Rather Effective Mixer
Stand in the place where you mix
Now make dough
Think about baking bread
Wonder why you haven’t before
Stand in the place where you whisk
Now whip cream
Think about forming stiff peaks
Wonder why you haven’t before
If you are confused, check for yourself
Take your hand mixer down from the shelf
You’re going to find it can’t get things done
Like a stand mixer such as this one
So stand in the place where you mix
Now make dough
Think about making bread
Wonder why you haven’t before
Stand in the place where you whisk
Now whip cream
Think about forming stiff peaks
Wonder why you haven’t before
The beater’s rotation is planetary
Better than two beaters? Yes, very
Check out stand mixers, see how they play
Without shelling out for a KitchenAid
So stand in the place where you mix
Now make dough
Think about making bread
Wonder why you haven’t before
Stand in the place where you whisk
Now whip cream
Think about forming stiff peaks
Wonder why you haven’t before
Your bread is going to be folded right
The peaks on your cream will stand up all night
So… stand
