ABOUT YOUR SCRAPER BEATER
The Breville scraper beater folds ingredients
and continuously scrapes down the sides and
bottom of the bowl for exceptionally thorough
mixing. It virtually eliminates the need to
scrape the bowl by hand with a spatula and
cuts mixing time up to 60%.
Under-mixed batters produce poorly baked
results, resulting in collapsing, unevenness of
crumb, holes, low rising, streaking and course
textures. The scraper beater will help to ensure
a thoroughly mixed batter for your favourite
cakes, biscuits, frosting and more.

the small bowl, the splash guard is
one piece.
ASSEMBLING THE SCRAPER WHISK
TOOL
The mixing tool for the small bowl converts
between a scraper beater and a scraper
whisk.
To convert the scraper beater into a scraper
whisk, the wire whisk part needsto be locked
onto the scraper beater
1. Loosen the locking nut by turning
anti-clockwise.
2. Assemble the wire whisk part onto the
scraper beater.
3. With the collar of the whisk in position,
turn the locking nut clockwise to fasten
wire in place.
4. Converting the scraper whisk back to
a scraper beater is the same process in
reverse. Remember to turn the locking
nut anti-clockwise to loosen, and
clockwise to tighten.
14
PAge heAder.....ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
OPERATING THE MIXER
Planetary Mixing Action
By replicating a similar mixing action used
by commercial mixers in bakeries and
patisseries, the Scraper Mixer Pro head
rotates around the bowl while rotating
the beater in the opposite direction. This
ensures a superior and thorough mixing
result without the need for a rotating bowl.
1. Ensure the speed control dial is set to
the OFF position, plug the cord into
a 220–240V power outlet and switch
the power ON at the power outlet. The
illuminated LED speed indicator band
will flash and the count up/down timer
will display 0:00. The mixer is
now ready.
2. Add ingredients to the mixing bowl as
indicated in the recipe.
3. Always begin mixing by selecting a low
speed setting on the speed control dial.
Starting on a low speed will prevent
ingredients splattering. Increase the
speed as suited to the mixing task. The
speed setting can be adjusted during
operation. If necessary, stop the mixer
during operation and scrape any food
mixture down the sides of the mixing
bowl with a spatula.
4. If the mixer has not been used for
5 minutes it will automatically change
from STANDBY mode to a power saving
OFF mode and the illuminated LED will
switch off. To exit OFF mode and begin
mixing, turn the dial to the selected
speed or press one of the count up/down
timer buttons.
5. Do not turn the mixer on with the
scraper beater in place if the mixing
bowl is empty. This will cause the
scraper beater to make a loud noise as it
scrapes the bowl.
6. When ingredients are in the mixing
bowl, the scraper beater may make a
slight noise as it scrapes the sides and
bottom of the bowl. This is normal and
should not cause concern.
15
PAge heAder.....ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
THE COUNT-UP TIMER
The count-up timer is for gauging mixing
time. You can monitor the time it takes to
thoroughly mix the ingredients, so that the
next time you mix the same ingredients you
can set the count-down timer for the
specific time.
The count-up timer will automatically
begin counting up as soon as the dial is
rotated from OFF to one of the speeds.
When the dial is turned to PAUSE the total
time will be displayed on the LCD and will
flash. When the dial is turned to OFF, the
LCD display will reset back to 0:00.
THE COUNT-DOWN TIMER
The count-down timer is for any recipe that
specifies the length of time ingredients
should be mixed. For example, if a recipe
reads, “beat for 3 minutes”.
To set the count-down timer, press the up or
down arrows until the desired mixing time is
displayed on the LCD screen. Press and hold
to scroll more quickly.
Rotate the dial to select the desired speed,
and begin mixing. When the timer has
finished counting down, it will beep. The
motor will automatically turn off and the
timer will flash OFF.
The control dial must to be rotated to the
OFF position to reset the timer and to
continue mixing.
PAUSE MODE
While mixing, at any stage, you can rotate
the control dial to the PAUSE setting. This
will suspend the timer, and turn the motor
off. This enables you to assess the mixing
progress or add additional ingredients
without affecting the timer.
For example, if you are mixing using the
count-up timer mode, you can rotate the
control dial from one of the mixing speeds
to PAUSE. The mixer motor will stop and
the timer will pause.
Once ready, rotate the dial back to one of the
mixing speeds and the timer will continue to
count-up from the exact time it was paused.
Alternatively, if the mixer is on PAUSE, you
can reset the timer to 0:00 by rotating the
dial to OFF.
The PAUSE function can also be used in
the count-down timer mode. To continue
mixing, rotate the dial back into one of the
mixing speeds to allow the timer to continue
counting down.
16
PAge heAder.....ASSEMBLY & OPERATION
MOTOR HEAD SAFETY CUT-OFF
The mixer is equipped with a motor head
safety cut-off. If the mixer head is lifted up at
any time while the mixer motor is switched
on, the safety cut-off will automatically
switch the motor off and set the mixer into
standby mode.
To restart the motor within 5 minutes, lower
the mixer head into the hotizontal (closed)
position, and turn the dial away then back to
the required speed setting. This will resume
mixing and the timer will resume counting.
To restart the motor after 5 minutes or more,
lower the mixer head and turn the dial to
OFF then back to the required speed. The
timer will start from 0.
To turn the mixer off (instead of restarting),
turn the dial to OFF, and unplug from
the wall.
ELECTRONIC PROTECTION
CUT-OFF - CURRENT OVERLOAD
The mixer is equipped with an electric
protection cut-off and will automatically
stop operating if the motor is stalled or
overloaded. This is normally a result of
excessive ingredients being processed at
one time. Should the mixer go into this
mode, the LED indicator band will flash and
the error message “E1” will flash on the LCD
screen and the buzzer will beep 3 times.
If this error occurs, turn the speed control
dial to the OFF position, switch the
appliance off at the power outlet and unplug
the cord. Remove some of the ingredients in
the mixing bowl and then restart the mixer.
THERMO CUT-OFF -
TEMPERATURE OVERLOAD
The mixer is equipped with a self-resetting
safety device which safeguards against
overheating the motor with excessive
loads. If overheating occurs, the mixer will
automatically activate the overheating
protection device and the motor will switch
itself off. Should the mixer go into this
mode, the LED indicator band will flash and
the error message “E2” will flash on the LCD
screen and the buzzer will beep 3 times.
If this error occurs, turn the speed control
dial to the OFF position, switch the
appliance off at the power outlet and unplug
the cord. Wait at least 15 minutes before
restarting the mixer.

21
PAge heAder.....MEASURING & WEIGHING
Care should be taken when weighing and
measuring ingredients to achieve accuracy
and consistency.

ML
1 teaspoon 5
1 tablespoon 20
1 cup 250
NEW ZEALAND METRIC
MEASUREMENTS
ML
1 teaspoon 5
1 tablespoon 15
1 cup 250
Recipes in this instruction book have been
developed using Australian metric weights
and measurements.
The New Zealand tablespoon is 5ml
less than the Australian tablespoon, so
care should be taken when measuring
ingredients to compensate for the variance.
For example, 1 Australian tablespoon
= 1 New Zealand tablespoon + 1 New
Zealand teaspoon.
It is important to note that New Zealand
ingredients, especially flour and yeast, can
differ from Australian equivalents.
METRIC WEIGHING SCALES
For consistent results it is recommended
that a Breville kitchen scale (for details
visit www.breville.com.au) be used to weigh
larger quantities as they provide greater
accuracy than measuring cups.
Tare (zero) the scales with the container in
position then spoon or pour ingredients in
until the desired weight is achieved.
METRIC MEASURING CUPS
AND SPOONS
If using graduated metric measuring cups,
it is important to spoon the dry ingredients
loosely into the required cup. Do not tap the
cup on the bench or pack the ingredients
into the cup unless otherwise directed. Level
the top of the cup with a knife. When using
graduated metric measuring spoons, level
the top of the spoon with a straight edged
knife or spatula.
METRIC LIQUID MEASURING JUGS
If using a graduated, metric measuring jug,
place jug on a flat surface and check for
accuracy at eye level.
NOTE
Water weighs the same amount in
grams as it measures in millilitres.

HINTS & TIPS
for your Breville product
24
PAge heAder.....HINTS & TIPS
HINTS AND TIPS FOR
BETTER BAKING
Check the ingredients and read the
recipe before starting to bake.
Weigh and measure
ingredients correctly.
Variations may occur in raw ingredients
use so adjust other ingredients and
baking times if required.
Preheat oven before starting recipe
preparation, this will ensure the correct
temperature is achieved before
baking starts.
Temperature and cooking times
may vary with some ovens so adjust
accordingly. If using a fan forced oven
reduce the temperatures in the recipes
by 10-20°C.
When mixing, start the mixer at a
lower speed then gradually increase to
the recommended speed in the recipe
especially when adding dry ingredients.
When using smaller quantities turn off
the mixer from time to time and scrape
the bowl with a spatula.
Ensure beaters and mixing bowl are
clean and free of fats when whipping
egg whites as these will impede aeration.
Spray trays and cake pans with an oil
spray and line with baking paper; this
will make removing your food easier.
Butter should be softened at room
temperature to make creaming butter
and sugar easier.
Keep surfaces and ingredients chilled
when making, handling or rolling out
pastry. Butter for pastry making should
be kept refrigerated.
Avoid stretching pastry when rolling
out as it will shrink when baking. Use
light, even strokes in one direction and
avoid pressing down hard on the rolling
pin. Where possible, rest pastry in the
refrigerator before baking.
Eggs should be at room temperature to
give better volume when whipping.
Break eggs individually into another
container before adding to other
ingredients to avoid potential spoilage.
Separate egg whites carefully to avoid
inclusion of egg yolks. Egg yolks contain
fat and will prevent successful whipping
of egg whites.
Rinse beaten egg residue from beater
and mixing bowl or other utensils with
cold water immediately after use. Using
hot water will set the egg and make
removal difficult.
Test if cakes are cooked 3–4 minutes
before end of recommended cooking
time by inserting a wooden skewer
into the centre of the cake. The skewer
should come out clean or with small dry
crumbs on it.
For crisper results when baking biscuits,
remove the baking trays from the oven
and placed directly onto wire racks.
Move the biscuits slightly away from
their baked position on the trays and
cool completely before removing.
25
PAge heAder.....HINTS & TIPS
HINTS AND TIPS FOR CAKE
AND PASTRY MAKING
Flour, such as plain, self raising and
wholemeal, used for cake and pastry making
should be lower in protein (gluten) than
flour used for bread making.
Plain flour has a lower protein (gluten)
content and gives baked products, such
as cakes, muffins, pastries, scones and
pancakes, a softer texture.
Self-raising flour is a blend of plain flour
and raising agents such as baking powder.
Self raising flour can be used in recipes
to replace plain flour and baking powder.
To make 1 cup self-raising flour sift
together 1 cup plain flour and 2 teaspoons
baking powder.
Wholemeal flour contains more parts of the
whole wheat grain – flour, bran and wheat
germ – and can be used in muffins, breads
and pie cases but will have a denser texture.
Corn flour is made from maize (corn) and
is used in some baked products to give a
finer texture and can also be used as a starch
to thicken sauces and desserts. Wheaten
cornflour is recommended when making
sponge cakes.
Rice flour is derived from rice and is used to
give a finer texture in baked products such
as shortbread biscuits.
Baking powder is a mixture of cream of
tartar and bicarbonate of soda and is used as
a raising agent in baking.
Bicarbonate of soda also known as baking
soda is an ingredient in baking powder and
can be used as an additional raising agent or
to darken some baked products.
Butter will give particular flavour and soft
texture to baked products. Margarine can
replace butter to give a similar result. Oil
can be used in some baking to replace butter
but will give texture and flavour differences.
Eggs should be at room temperature to
give better volume when making cakes and
sponges. Standard 60g eggs were used in
the recipes.
Milk should be full cream unless specified.
Light, low fat or skim milk can be used but
will give texture and flavour differences.
Sugar (white crystal sugar) is used to
give flavour, texture and colour to baked
products. Caster sugar is often used in
baking as it is easier to dissolve when
creaming butter and sugar. Brown sugar is
also easy to dissolve and can be used to give
a different flavour and texture. The large
crystals of raw sugar are slower to dissolve
and can be suitable for baked products such
as muffins.

USING THE SCRAPER BEATER
The scraper beater can be used for a variety
of mixing tasks. These include creaming
butter and sugar, pastry, cake and biscuit
doughs, batters, icing and frosting. Due to
the efficient mixing action of the scraper
beater, the mixing time of many recipes
will be reduced. Refer to the chart below
for approximate mixing times for common
mixing tasks.
NOTE
Longer mixing times may be required
for larger or double quantities.
Do not use the scraper beater for
mixing heavy dough (bread, pizza etc)
or whisking egg whites.
The timings suggested are to be used
as a guide only.
When adding flour to the mixing bowl,
always use splash guard and ensure
the mixer is on the folding/kneading
setting. This will prevent flour from
escaping the bowl.
Fig. 3
TIP
The scraper beater can also be used
as a spatula when removing cake,
biscuits or other mixtures form the
mixing bowl (see Fig. 3).
HINTS & TIPS

PAge heAder.....HINTS & TIPS
MIXTURE MIXING TASK APPROX. MIXING TIME
Butter & sugar Creaming 1–4 minutes (or until mixture is
pale and creamy)
Cake, muffin batter Incorporating wet and
dry ingredients 30–40 seconds (or until all
ingredients are combined)
Biscuits & cookie mixtures Incorporating wet and
dry ingredients 30–40 seconds (or until all

dry ingredients 30–40 seconds (or until all
ingredients are combined)
Frosting Creaming butter
Combining icing sugar, butter
& liquid ingredients
1–2 minutes (or until butter is
smooth & creamy)
50–60 seconds (or until
mixture is light and fluffy)
ISSUE TIP
Choice of attachments Use the beater for all mixing tasks. Use the whisk for all whipping
or aeration tasks. Use dough hook only for kneading bread dough.
Speed settings Use the mixing guide to select a suitable mixing speed when
preparing recipes. Begin mixing at lowest speed then increase to
higher speed to prevent splattering.
Mixing Mix for the recommended time in the recipe – avoid over mixing.
Should an object such as a spoon or spatula fall into the bowl
while mixing, immediately turn the mixer off, unplug at the power
outlet and remove the object.
Egg white Be sure the whisk and bowl are completely clean and dry
before use – a small amount of fat or egg yolk will affect
whipping performance.
Bread dough Add liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients. Use Kneeding/
Folding setting to knead ingredients into a dough ball.
DO NOT place hands near dough hook when mixer is operating.

PAge heAder.....TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM EASY SOLUTION
Machine will
not work when
switched ON
Always ensure the speed control dial is in the OFF position
before start.
The temperature overload protection (thermo cut-off) device
has not been activated automatically, allow more time for the
motor to cool down.
Cannot set the
time on the
count-down timer
Always ensure the speed control dial is in the OFF position
before trying to set the count-down time.
Mixer suddenly
switches off during
mixing
The mixer has been stressed by overloading or stalling. The
mixer will automatically activate the overload protection
button and the unit will switch itself off. When this happens
it is recommended that the unit is switched off at the power
outlet and unplugged. The safety devices will the be reset and
the Scraper Mixer Pro is ready to use again.
“E1” error message
is flashing on the
count-up/down
timer display
The mixer will automatically stop operating if the motor is
stalled. If this occurs, the ‘E1’ error message will flash on the
count-up/down timer display. This is an electronic safety
feature. This is normally a result of too much ingredients
being processed at one time. Try removing some of the
ingredients from the bowl. To continue mixing, turn the speed
control dial to the off position and unplug the mixer from the
power outlet. Then plug the mixer into the power outlet and
use as normal.
“E2” error message
is flashing on the
count-up/down
timer display
This may indicate that the motor has been stressed by
overheating with excessive load. The mixer is fitted with a self-
resetting safety device which safeguards against overheating
on the motor with excessive loads. If overheating occurs, the
mixer will automatically activate the overheating protection
device and the motor will switch itself off. When the
overheating protection is activated, unplug the mixer from the
power outlet for at least 15 minutes to allow the unit to cool.
Turn the speed control dial to the OFF position then plug the
mixer into the power outlet and use as normal.
Noise is heard
when scraper
beater is mixing
When ingredients are in the mixing bowl, the scraper beater
may make a slight noise as it scrapes the sides and bottom
of the bowl. This is normal and should not cause concern. Do
not turn the mixer on with the scraper beater in place if the
mixing bowl is empty. This will cause the scraper beater to
make a loud noise as it scrapes the bowl.
