Basic Part

A hand mixer is an appliance used to beat, mix, stir, and whip both wet and dry ingredients. It is most often used for baking rather than cooking. In order to incorporate ingredients, it has an electric motor that powers two whisks. These whisks rotate either slowly to rapidly, depending on the mixer's speed setting, to incorporate the ingredients. It is the rate at which the whisks rotate that determines whether ingredients are only just barely combined or thoroughly stirred together.

How an Electric Hand Mixer Works

First, set up a hand mixer with attaching the two whisks to it and plug it in.

2. Second, plug the cable to your electricity.

3. And then Then select the setting appropriate for your recipe, or the speed at which you want the whisks to rotate. Some mixers have settings you can choose such as "beat," "stir" and "whip," while other mixers have speed settings, such as "low," "medium" and "high".

4. After you've selected your setting, place the hand mixer inside the bowl of ingredients and press "Start." Electricity flowing through the mixer prompts the motor to turn on and the motor mechanically moves the gears attached to the whisks, which in turn cause the whisks to rotate.

5. Finally, you can make some foods and cakes with it.

How to fix an Electric Mixer

First, unplug the mixer before attempting any type of repair. Then, clean the appliance if the mixer has a lot of batter and food on it. A lot of times while using the mixer, the ingredients can work their way up the beaters and make their way into the gear section where the beaters attach. This can happen especially when mixing bread dough, cookie batter or any dense or heavy ingredients. Second, Refer to owner's manuals when fixing an electric mixer. Next, if the mixer stops beating when it's turned on, it could be that the appliance isn't getting the proper voltage. Test the mixer using a voltmeter. If the mixer is getting the proper voltage, it could be that one of the gears are worn out.

After that, check the wiring on the mixer. Look for any cracks, tears or exposed wires. Sometimes just using electrical tape to repair the cord is all that's needed. Then, take out the screws from underneath the head of the mixer using a Phillips screwdriver. Next take out the screws on the back of the head of the mixer (some brands have these, others don't). Next, grasp the head of the mixer and gently pry off the housing with a large screwdriver. A slot screwdriver is preferable. Then clean out the area with a soft cloth and look for any broken parts or wires. Finally, you can use your electric mixer hand again.
