Whether you're running a bakery or other commercial kitchen, the mixer is the foundation upon which most of your recipes stand. Simply put, if you don't have the best commercial mixer, you can fall behind because of inefficient operations and complicated processes. 

Fortunately, the Varimixer Kodiak is arguably the gold standard for mixing equipment for bakeries and kitchens. So, let's take a closer look at what makes this machine so valuable. 

 

Ergonomic Design

Working in a commercial kitchen means standing and stooping all day long. So, having an ergonomically-designed mixer can help you avoid potential back problems down the line. The Kodiak comes in two versions: a freestanding model and a tabletop unit. With the freestanding mixer, you don't have to bend over much to anything, including locking the bowl in place, changing the accessories, or adding the splash guard. 

Locking the unit into place is so intuitive that you don't need to read the instruction manual first. Simply place the bowl in position, snap the sides closed, and then move the locking arm. The display is also in an easy-to-reach spot so that you can control the mixer quickly and efficiently. 

Finally, viewing the inside of the mixer is easy, thanks to the raised top and widened sides of the bowl. This design ensures that you don't overmix your ingredients or strain yourself to see what's happening inside. 

Versatile Operations

A commercial mixer is an integral part of any kitchen, particularly for baked goods. The Kodiak is super versatile because you can buy a wide assortment of accessories and whisks to suit your needs. Options include dough hooks, wire whisks, flat beaters, and even bowl scrapers. No recipe is too complicated for the Varimixer Kodiak. 

If you want to upgrade your machine even further, Varimixer offers several add-on devices. These pieces can allow you to make other dishes, including ground meats and processed foods. This one machine can become an all-in-one piece for any kitchen or bakery. 

Easy to Use Functions

As we mentioned, you don't have to read the manual to know how to lock the mixing bowl into place. You can also operate the Kodiak without extensive reading or training. The control panel is so easy to figure out that newbies can master the machine in minutes. Even changing the whisks or blades is about as simple as possible. Just twist the piece and pop it off. 

Even if you use the Varimixer Kodiak for non-baked dishes, you can quickly figure out how to use the add-ons. Overall, this device helps make your kitchen as productive as possible. 

Voted "Most Hygienic" Mixer

One issue that comes from most commercial mixers is that they're a pain to clean. Fortunately, you and your staff can keep the workflow moving, thanks to the Kodiak's easy-to-clean surfaces. Varimixer spent countless hours studying the processes used in real kitchens to find out how to make cleaning as breezy as possible. No fumbling, no scrubbing, and no hassle. That's why this mixer was voted "most hygienic."
