This attachment works as it should but the scale is a bit confusing. It doesn’t do cups which, annoyingly a lot of recipes use.

sifter + Scale
I have been wanting to purchase this attachment for a long time - but wasn't sure if it was worth it. Purchased approx 2 months ago and love it! The attachment was easy to assemble. No need to have a separate set of scales and separate bowl to measure first before adding to my recipes...yay! Cleaning up was easy also. Totally happy with purchase.

Makes for better cooking and less mess!
I had always kept an eye on this and a friend recommended it, so it was a no brainer after my pasta attachments. This system is a great addition and makes for a lot less mess in my kitchen and greater accuracy in my bakes and batters. Loving using it. Only drawback to me is when I am m making a double batch the receptacle at top is not big enough and I have to run the flour through twice.

Time Saver
Decided to treat myself during the EOFY sales, and so glad I did! I’ve loved every part of this Sifter + Scale attachment, from the beautifully thought out packaging, giving every piece its own place, to the ease of setup and use. The sieve attached won’t sift as finely as other sifters may, but still works great! I’ve used this a few times now and it’s always worked great everytime. I highly recommend this attachment.

Not practical item to use with the tilt head mixer
I tried the sifter once, think i can whisk while slowly adding flour thru the sifter. the sifter attachment has a metal to scrap the flour down. however the speed would be the same setting as the whisk, making it really loud noise. Very inconvenient if u try to attached it while whisking, as well as inconvenient when trying to tilt the stand mixer which lifts up. not the practical item. I had to return it, too many parts to clean, not beneficial.

Questions on how to use
I have a few questions on the usage of the sifter, when the sifter is on the paddle is moving in the bowl. So when sifting flour into a batter you are mixing the entire time the flour is being sifted into the bowl. Which may be too much mixing. In many recipes when adding the flour to the wet ingredients you are directed to not 'over' mix. But if I'm mixing while sifting then I'm at risk of 'over mixing" How do I not over mix, do I take the paddle off the when I'm sifting? ( that seems like a process). Second question is does this sifter work for brown sugar?
