Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Copper Kettle, a bustling café in Canterbury, was struggling with an underpowered mixer that couldn't keep up with their popular cake and  scone sales. They upgraded to the Hobart A200N to increase batch sizes and  improve consistency.

"We used to mix three small batches of scone dough every morning. With the Hobart, we do it all in one go, and  the texture is better than ever. It's saved us at least an hour a day in prep time alone, which is huge for a small team like ours."

Michael Davies – Owner & Head Chef

The upgrade allowed them to increase their bakery output by over 50%, introducing new product lines and  significantly reducing staff stress during the morning rush.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • This mixer is heavy (104kg)! Ensure you have at least two people to lift and  position it.
  • Place it on a completely flat, stable, and  level surface to prevent vibration during operation.
  • Before first use, wash the bowl and  all attachments in warm, soapy water.
  • Familiarise yourself with the lever-lift and  speed control handle to ensure smooth operation.

Keeping It Going

  • Always clean the bowl and  attachments immediately after use to prevent ingredients from drying on.
  • The bowl and  attachments are dishwasher safe, making cleanup quick and  easy.
  • Wipe down the body of the mixer with a damp cloth and  mild detergent. Never use a jet spray.
  • Regularly check that all safety guards are in place and  functioning correctly.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Mixer

Not sure which mixer is your kitchen's perfect match? Let's break down the key things to consider when choosing a 20 litre commercial planetary mixer or any other size.

Capacity is King

Think about your peak production. A 20L bowl is great for small bakeries or busy restaurants. If you're a large-scale producer, you might need to size up. Always choose based on your busiest day.

Power & Dough Type

What are you mixing? Light batters and  creams need less power than dense bread or pizza dough. The 370W motor on the Hobart A200N is specifically designed to handle these heavier loads without straining.

Attachments Matter

A dough hook, beater, and  whisk are the standard trio. Do you need other specific tools? Check if accessories like bowl scrapers or 10Ltr adapter kits are available for the model you're considering.

Measure Your Space

These machines have a significant footprint and  are very heavy. Measure your intended space carefully, ensuring there's enough room around it for safe operation and  cleaning.

Controls and  Usability

Simple, robust manual controls like those on the A200N are often more reliable and  easier for staff to learn than complex digital panels. Consider what works best for your team's skill level.

How Planetary Action Guarantees a Perfect Mix

Ever wondered what 'planetary action' actually means? It’s a clever bit of engineering that ensures nothing in the bowl gets missed. Imagine the beater attachment is the Earth, and  the bowl is the Sun's orbit. The beater spins on its own axis (like the Earth rotating daily) while simultaneously travelling in a wide circle around the inside of the bowl (like the Earth orbiting the Sun).

This dual motion means the attachment covers every square inch of the bowl, from the very bottom to the sides and  the centre. The result? You get a perfectly uniform mix without ever having to stop the machine to scrape down unmixed flour or butter from the sides. It saves time, reduces labour, and  delivers a brilliantly consistent product every single time.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Artisan Bakeries: For producing consistent, high-quality doughs and  batters in bulk, day after day without fail.
  • High-Volume Restaurants: An essential tool for prepping everything from mashed potatoes to mousse for hundreds of covers.
  • Event Caterers: This catering planetary mixer 20L handles the pressure of large-scale event prep, mixing huge batches effortlessly.
  • School & University Kitchens: Offers the reliability and  safety needed to prepare meals for a large number of students daily.
