Overview of KitchenAid Pro 600 Bowl Lift Stand Mixer: -How to put on bowl -How to put on beaters -Description of each beater -How to use the pour shield -What is the power hub? -Description of the speeds lever
Finally a video of someone showing how to actually use it everybody else on RU-vid just shows them mixing with no explanation of the machine thank you so much ❤️❗️
Thank you so much for explaining all of the attachments! I was trying to make cookies with the wire whisk and the dough was sticking everywhere. Your detailed tutorial is fantastic. Now I know how to properly use the pour spout too. Thank you!
Thank you for the video. It was very helpful. My son bought me one for Christmas and I am so grateful because I bake a lot during the holidays. However, the new mixer was rather intimidating to me because of its massive size and good quality as I am used to the handheld mixers.
I just tried out my new Pro 600 to make gnocchi. Wow, what a difference it makes. It literally took me under 3 minutes to beat the dough and incorporate the eggs. Gnocchi turned out flawless.
Hi, Tina i see u in QVC i like how u explain, I don't have any questions just tell u cong. U doing great job explain very good i love my mixer i have 2 mixer thank u .Happy New Year
I have mine white 5K5SS model for more than 20 years and it's as good as new. This brand really last a lifetime. Can't tell how much I love mine, now that I have a bread maker I seldom use it anymore.
Loved the tutorial, very informative. Tho i do have s question my wisk is touching the bottom of the bowl & someone said its not supposed to. How do i fix as i already tried the the screw & its still too low.
Thanks for overview. After reading the accompanying manual, I’m not totally confident in adjusting the “height/depth” of beater attachments. The recommended adjustment reads very vague to me. Can you explain please? Thanks
Hi, Tina. I like the way you demonstrate. I just got this mixer in Linen. It's beautiful. I want to make pie crust. I use Crisco and butter.can you make a video of pie crust? I know you showed how to on last Sunday's qvc tsv. Thanks so much. Denise Curtis, NJ
Hi Michael - This is a bowl lift mixer. It has a lever on the side that raises and lowers the bowl. It has this type of mechanism due to the high power in the unit. There are great tilt-head units available too. You can look for the Artisan 5 qt. model. Take care!
Thanks for a nice overview! We just got a Pro 600 and noticed that the locating pins on the right support arm (that holds the bowl) had fallen off in the box. The pin on the left arm is fixed tightly into the arm. I just placed the missing pin loosely back in its slot. Is the pin meant to be loose or do I have a defective unit?
Hello Pranav - Thanks for reaching out - I would suggest calling the KitchenAid Countertop Appliance support team, they should be able to help you! www.kitchenaid.com/resources/contact-us.html
I'm waiting on my Pro 600 to arrive. Im 64 and have never owned a stand mixer so I am excited! I'm curious why the model I ordered doesn't come with the black knob on the lift arm like the older models do. I really like the look with the black knob on it. Can those be purchased separately? I also love ice cream and ordered the ice cream maker too so I'm super excited about that! I watched your video earlier today to see how to make it once the mixer arrives and to see what ingredients I needed to have on hand so I would be ready. LOL Thank you for these videos to get me ready so I know how to do things with my new stand mixer.
Hi Saundra! Congrats on your mixer! Yes, various models/series may have slight differences. I don't think it's available as a separate add-on piece. You'll love making ice cream - so fun! Please feel free to reach out with any questions! Feel free to visit my website - lots of recipes there! www.epicuricloud.com
Hi Tina! I got my pro 600 and love it!!! What a powerful mixer! Omg! I do have a question though about the handle, mine is stiff and hard to lift. IS there anything I can do?
If I adjusted the screw in the back of the bowl to lift the bowl higher to actually have the mixer blade mix what's on the bottom of the bowl and it still doesn't touch, is there anything I can try ????
Hi Tammy - You don't want it technically touching the bowl - just close to the bottom. Here's a video from KitchenAid with a "dime test" to help adjust you beater to bowl clearance. producthelp.kitchenaid.com/Countertop_Appliances/Stand_Mixers/Product_Info/Stand_Mixer_Videos/VIDEO%3A__Adjusting_the_Beater_to_Bowl_Clearance_(Dime_Test)
Hi! I purchased the " Professional 6" about 17-18 years ago. Mine is 525 watts. Is this model all metal gears AND was it still made by Hobart at that time or Whirlpool? Thanks so much!!!
Hey for some reason i have to click my power on, simultaneously click it off then back on for my machine to work. Is this something i need to get repaired or is this some fail safe thing that’s with these pro 600 series? I’m frustrated but happy it at least work. FYI i bought it refurbished.
just had to return the kitchen aid 600 model, 2 cups of flour 3 eggs using the dough hook on level i and 2 and the engine crapped out smelt like an electrical fire. returned it got the same model we will see if it is as garbage. I read the note on the beater said don't go over 2 so I didn't.
Hello - I would recommend you reach out to the KitchenAid Customer Care Team for assistance: www.kitchenaid.com/service-and-support.html And yes, when using the dough hook, you should use Speed 2 only. Thanks!
Did Kitchen aid remove the spring for the attachment on the Pro 6 ??? Just got pro 5 and already not happy about.. it does not have the spring for the batter attachment, the attachment is too loose without it
Hi Beeba - you can usually whip as little as 3 egg whites. Sometimes it needs to whip a little bit until it gets fluffy and the beater comes in contact with more of the mixture. You can also adjust your bowl to beater clearance to make sure the beater is in the correct position. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ocnETNExLc0.html
Anyone know which model has the issue not mixing egg whites, and other items with out the purchase of the smaller bowl ?? i also just got the Pro 5 and upset they did away with the spring for the attachment !! now the attachment is loose without it . nothing like my Artisian model!! sucks...
Hello! Yes, they eliminated the springs - I don't have them on my mixers - makes it much easier to keep clean. I don't personally notice any issue with not having the spring. I've not had issues with egg whites - but you need a few egg whites so it's enough volume for the beater.
Can kitchenaid attachments for the artisan line be used on this model? In essence, are they all interchangeable, or does the pro line use special attachments
It depends if you're talking attachments as in beaters - or attachments as in the ones that plug into the power hub - ie: the pasta rollers. So the beaters are not all interchangeable. The attachments that plug into the Power Hub are all interchangeable! They will work with any model, Any size, Any age mixer.
@@epicuricloud thank you ☺️ I'm torn between a kenwood chef major and KA Pro 600, and just trying to do some homework on each product before I rip open all the packaging lol
The Pro600 is a Bowl-Lift model - which means a lever lifts and lowers the bowl. Bowl-Lift models generally bring more power and capacity than tilt-head models.
Mine started dying shortly after about 3 years I didn't even use it very often. It works but have to start on 2 then wait like 10-15 second or then it starts it seems to struggling with dough
Hi Nick - I do feel it's important to run the motor once in a while - just like any other motor (car). The Pro600 model does have a soft start feature so it does pause a moment when starting - helps to control dry ingredients puffing out of bowl. You can always contact KitchenAid customer care team for servicing. www.kitchenaid.com/resources/contact-us.html
Hello Tina, I bought this mixer in Guava Glaze and it is a beautiful machine. The design on the other hand is horrid, none of the attachments do anything with ingredients in the bottom of the bowl. It takes over 15 minutes to whip egg whites, bread dough has to be constantly watched and scraped back into the hook. The power is there but the connection is not!! Any solutions?? Or is this just a $500 cabinet ornament. Thank you.
Hi Anita - Guava Glaze is so pretty! Do you have the metal or glass bowl? There is a very simple adjustment that is helpful to do from time to time. (especially after shipping, when the unit can be jostled around a bit) It's called the beater to bowl clearance. There are instructions on how to do in your Use & Care Guide. It's just the turn of a screw. If you don't have the Use & Care Guide, it is also posted here: www.qvc.com/footers/cd/pdf/K48221_Manual.pdf
Hello - I have both - construction very much similar. The main differences are capacity - it's a taller bowl for more capacity. And higher wattage. Some of the knobs can be a little different - silver toned instead of black (depending upon the specific model)
Hello, Tina. My name is Kevin and I bought the KitchenAid Professional Stand Mixer-Bowl Lift as I opened it just now. I only have one wire whip for that product. The instructions said number 16 part is Wire Whip and number 17 is 11-Wire Stainless Steel Elliptical Whip. I think I am missing either Wire Whip or Wire Stainless whip. Is it normal we only have one Wire Whip in one pack of KitchenAid Professional Stand Mixer-Bowl Lift or is it supposed to have 2 different wire whips in one pack?
Hi Kevin! Thanks for reaching out! They only come with one wire whip. The elliptical wire whip is an upgraded option for some models, I believe. They may be using the same Use & Care Guide for all the units and just want to label all the parts depending upon which pack-up you purchased. Hope that helps!
Hi Tina! I am such big fan! Congrats on the bake off! I just ordered a silver pro 600, but I am concerned if this is going to be a really loud mixer. Are this mixers loud? And what is your favorite model? THANKS!
Honestly, I don't consider the mixers (any of them) loud. At least, they've never bothered me! I would say the Mini-Artisan 3.5qt and the 7QT seem to me to be a little quieter than the others, but again none of them seem too loud to me. There are plenty of other appliances in the kitchen that are louder - blender, coffee grinder... I think you'll love the pro600! Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions!
@@epicuricloud Hi Tina! Thanks for getting back to me! I just got my 600 mixer, and LOVE IT!!! It is not loud at all and highly recommend to anyone in the market for one! (I ordered two more!!)
One question I did have, was mine did not come with a black handle on it. In the images, it did show one, but I don't know if that was because mine was refurbished. Yesterday, I did order a not used mixer off of Costco, but still the pro 600, so I will keep you updated on that. : )
@@bakingwithme1337 Some models have the black handle, some do not. It doesn't mean it's refurbished. It all depends upon the pack-up the vendor offers. The black handle also is not essential to function. I did see them once on a parts type website - but can't seem to find them right now.
Hi Gina - We have a new "secure fit" pour shield - that I really like - clips onto the bowl. The previous model sits atop the bowl. www.kitchenaid.com/countertop-appliances/stand-mixers/accessories/p.secure-fit-pouring-shield.ksmblps.html?
Hello! Are you asking the difference between the 7qt and the Pro600? Basically the 7qt has a larger bowl and more power. It may also have some different "cosmetic" changes depending upon the model. My 7qt has some very shiny "chrome" knobs. Let me know if you need me to write this in Spanish - I can see if my daughter can translate for me.
@@kherxing Hi Cindy - I would suggest reaching out to KitchenAid Customer Care and talking to them - Here's a link to the numbers - call the "countertop appliance number" www.kitchenaid.com/resources/contact-us.html
Hi Jessica - Thanks for reaching out! I would reach out to the KitchenAid Customer Care Dept. They can look up your specific model and let you know if a pour shield is available. www.kitchenaid.com/service-and-support.html Take care!
I recently bought the Pro 600 from a friend. It's about 5-6 years old. I can't figure out how to keep the bowl lift in the up position without me holding the lever the entire time it's mixing. Shouldn't it lock? I looked in the manual, I have looked everywhere, but cannot find instructions for this.
Is it normal to have a clicking sound? My pro 600 just started having a clicking sound while on the stir setting and is louder when put to the higher settings. Keep in mind that I am not mixing anything. Ive only had it for 5 months and just started having a clicking sound.
If that's not it - I would try to make sure the beaters aren't hitting the bowl. They should be close to the bowl but not quite touching it. Here's a KitchenAid video you an check out: producthelp.kitchenaid.com/Countertop_Appliances/Stand_Mixers/Product_Info/Stand_Mixer_Videos/VIDEO%3A__Adjusting_the_Beater_to_Bowl_Clearance_(Dime_Test)
The clicking sound started with the regular mixing paddle while in the mixing bowl. I removed the paddle and mixing bowl and still makes the clicking sound without any attachments or bowl.
Hi there, great video. Could you help me with something? I just opened my stand mixer and the "elevator" is making a lot of noise when i make pizza dough, hears like something loose, each spin is one metal beat. It is very noisy. is it normal?
@@epicuricloud Hi there. Yes, the three points are docked. To way i fit was: First the both frontal pins, and the, with both hands, dock the back. The noise comes from the "elevator", that mobile part, not from the bowl. Thanks!
@@zenanton4259 Hmm - I would suggest reaching out to our customer care team - either live chat or call the "countertop appliance" team. Let me know what comes of it! www.kitchenaid.com/resources/contact-us.html
Hi Mr. D. There is a screw located along the back support of the mixer (right behind the bowl when it's in the upper position). You can turn that screw a 1/4 turn in either direction to adjust the beater to bowl clearance. I usually fold a standard letter envelope in half and see if I can just slip it under the beater. (if you have a flex edge beater, the scraper part should be touching the bowl.)

Hi Aubrey - After mixing, I lower the bowl and take of the beater. To remove the bowl, grasp the handle and lift upward to release. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Good idea Betty - I should have shown that. You want to lower the bowl. Unhook the beater, but leave it in the bowl. Lift upward on the bowl using the handle - and remove. Then take you beater out.
The one thing that is NEVER EVER discussed was the depth of the beater to bottom of bowl, in addition no one ever talks about the height adjustment of the beaters, don't you think that's important as well, I just found out this very important information about kitchen aid
Yes, thanks for your feedback! That certainly deserves it's own video - KitchenAid has some good ones! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-klIcOARtqpE.html
