That said, the Artisan comes with a tool that makes it easy to add ingredients to the mixer as it’s running: a clear plastic pouring shield. The Artisan Series 5-Quart mixer had no trouble incorporating all the kitchen sink cookie mix-ins. It was also a cinch to stop the machine so I could scrape down the sides of the bowl or add in more ingredients. While I typically removed the bowl to do this, I was able to change the attachments while the bowl remained locked in place. Throughout my testing, I used every one of the included attachments-the beater, whisk and dough hook-and when it came time to swap them out, I had no trouble removing them. Overall, I found this style incredibly easy to use. The Artisan is a tilt-head machine, which means the mixing bowl locks into the base of the body and the head tilts backward. In fact, I went on to enjoy it with my fresh whipped cream and some macerated strawberries for a simple yet elegant dessert. The cake that the Artisan yielded was impossibly light and tender. Using the paddle attachment, I prepared a traditional sponge cake batter, which is a relatively finicky mixture if you overwork the batter, which is easy to do in a stand mixer, your cake can become tough or it can collapse. When it was time to be gentle, the Artisan responded accordingly-and proficiently. Instead, the mixer’s body remained steady as it mixed the dough into a tight ball that yielded airy, crispy pizza dough. When I used the dough hook to knead pizza dough at high speeds, the Artisan didn’t bounce around my countertop, as many inferior machines do. During my kitchen sink cookie test, the paddle attachment evenly incorporated all my mix-ins thoroughly while I figured I might find a dry spot or clumps of raisins, I was proven wrong. When I used the included wire whisk to make whipped cream on high speed, none of the heavy cream splattered over the sides after running the machine for 5 minutes, my bowl was full of soft, billowing peaks. During testing, I was thoroughly impressed by the mixer’s versatility-it mixed everything, delicate cake batter and stiff bread dough alike, just perfectly.
