  • Mr. Mixer specializes in the restoration and cleaning of KitchenAid and other brand mixers. For this piece, his client tried to take one apart and clean it themselves but weren't able to, so they brought it to him. He'll take out all the parts, remove all the built-up grease, clean the gears in a degreasing-solution tank, and put it all back together with new grease to help the gears run smoothly.

    My Kitchenaid is from 1969. It's still works perfectly but I can tell it needs a bit of love.

    My mother bought a Kenwood Chef way back in the late 50s. She loved to cook and used it every single day both to process food while cooking meals and to bake for the afternoon tea. In time, also we, my sisters and I started to cook and bake using the machine. Years passed and we all got married and had children and my mother still used the same machine to prepare our children's meals, shakes and whatever it was they wanted to eat when visiting her.
    When she and my father in the 80s had to move to a more age appropriate house, the machine followed them. When they passed (89 and 96 years old), one of my sisters kept the machine, very old but still in working condition. I never heard that the Kenwood Chef needed to be serviced or repaired. Ever. That machine was a part of my childhood's house and a part of my mother like a hand or an arm.

    This video is misleading, to the point where I'm wondering if it's just an advertisement for this guy's business. They say the grease turned black from food content but if you watch how these mixers are made, the original grease is black to begin with. Also, it says the gearbox is sealed so I don't understand how food would be getting in it?
    Hopefully the food grade grease this guy is using is appropriate for the application, the OE grease is dark like a moly grease, or something with lots of anti wear additives. It shouldn't matter about being food grade since its sealed. Just some thoughts, clearly this guy has business regardless

      As a side note to anyone reading this, my gf just got a kitchenaid professional 600 that is defective out of the box. The power switch only works 3/4 of the time and the gears are extremely loud, easily twice as loud as my mom's pro 600 that is now 7 years old. Maybe kitchenaid quality is slipping? Anyone with any input please feel free to leave a reply.

    • @lynn858
      @lynn858 3 роки тому

      @@thedude808 Our 600 does precisely that too - but it’s previously used so I assumed it had taken some serious wear making bread. It was bestowed upon us when a friend moved overseas. I would say it can’t be more than 10 years old.
      I’m grateful to have it, but I have coated myself and half the kitchen more than once due to the switch not kicking in until I had it set on high speed.
      Now I usually remember to move it one level, then wait to see if it kicks on, before moving it any further - and if it doesn’t kick on by the third notch, turn it back off and try again.
      I’ve even worn earplugs while using it because that noise does not agree with me. (But a lot of noises bother me).
      If I remember correctly, my former partner’s kitchen-aid, which may have been a 600- looks the same. Was also slow to start when moving the switch, but less so than this one.

    Can you please explain how x amount of sealed gear grease can “build up " and cause wear and tear on the parts? The gear grease is sealed separately from any interaction with food or ingredients if you're having leaking grease the seal has failed. The food has NOT migrated against gravity upward snuck past a seal to “contaminate" the lubricant. To remove all the grease and replace it with different colored Grease is a pointless operation particularly if no parts have failed. You can, but it's completely pointless. it's not brown because it's filled with contaminants it's brown because, it's Grease.
    This is disingenuous at best.
    What type of lubricant did you replace it with and is it food safe?

    I would just never buy this expensive headache. Walmart got mixers for $5 so I could buy enough for my lifetime with how much these people are spending on these mixers and then spending money to keep them working is insane...
