Kitchen accessory that promises to make baking more accurate by combining sifting with weighing in one unit. Bakers save time and clear the clutter while preparing doughs and batters. Is the KitchenAid Sifter and Scale Attachment the easiest way to get repeatable results for everyday baking?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Sifting and Weighing: Hands-free automatic sifting combined with an integrated digital scale for precise measurements
- • Best for: Home bakers who want repeatable, measured ingredient addition without extra bowls
- • Not ideal for: Users who do not own a KitchenAid stand mixer or who prefer handheld sifters
An attachment designed to sit on KitchenAid stand mixers, pairing automatic sifting with a digital scale. The chute feeds sifted, weighed ingredients directly into the bowl or into a separate container.
Precise Measurement – with an integrated digital scale
Integrated digital scale measures ingredients by weight and includes a detachable scale plate for countertop use. Measurements can be taken while attached to the mixer or separately on the worktop with the included plate.
Accurate weighing removes guesswork when following recipes, helping bakers achieve consistent results. Using weight instead of volume improves reproducibility across batches.
Hands-free Sifting and Addition – thanks to the slow-feed chute
A chute sits above the bowl that slowly incorporates sifted ingredients while the mixer runs, reducing clumping and over-aeration. The chute can also swivel to direct contents into a separate container.
Gradual ingredient delivery keeps mixtures smooth and avoids sudden dry pockets in doughs or batters. Swivelling the chute makes transfer neat and reduces countertop mess.
Tidier Prep and Simple Storage – with a compact storage case
A compact storage case bundles the sifter, scale plate and ancillary parts for organised storage. The scale plate doubles as a countertop weighing surface when detached.
Fewer dishes and less countertop cleaning speed up both prep and tidy-up. Storing all parts together prevents misplacing small components between uses.
