🥣 KitchenAid KSMSFTA Sifter and Scale Attachment, White, 4-Cup Capacity Review

I bake a lot and hate sevens. I have 2 stand mixers and thought this would be a great addition to sift all the sugar I use for buttercream. I am very disappointed with this device. it's slow Very loud. The strainer of a sifter can be a little larger than a silver dollar, so if you're trying to strain 2 cups of something, you better be prepared to wait. And wait. And wait. Since the screen is so small, now if you get a lump it will clog about half of the screen and then stop the weak flow of…

I bought this strainer primarily to help sift icing sugar for buttercream. I have homemade cakes, I make A LOT of buttercream, and I HATE the mess that powdered sugar makes. I thought this attachment would save me. Boy was I wrong! Just this morning I had my fourth disaster when all the attachments came off and fell on the floor spilling 4 cups of powdered sugar all over the kitchen. That's exactly what I wanted to avoid!

To be honest I really like this product; This is a very smart combination of things at a good price.

I was excited about this scale because sifting alone can often be tedious and makes a huge mess if you try to sift while the blender is running. This attachment solves that problem by helping you…

Bought mine at a fancy French store because it was the only one that stocked it. Even though I've watched videos online showing how it works, I still found it a little different than what I expected. There are lots of benefits as well as problems of using this item. One of the first things I made was soft brown butter cookies (with puffed quinoa). Problems: As soon as you turn on the sieve, it pours out the flour very slowly at speed 2. If you have 2-4 cups of flour in a bowl, it takes a while.
