Hamilton Beach Eclectrics Drink Mixer 65114

Date Published: 5/25/06

The Hamilton Beach Eclectrics Drink Mixer 65114 unit performs a single task: mixing beverages and light batters. Yet it excels at that task, creating frothier milk shakes and fluffier batters than you could get by hand mixing.

This unit features all-metal construction, plus a commercial-grade spindle with two agitators for thorough mixing. The mixer is perfect for shakes, soda or fruit drinks, scrambled eggs, pancake batter, and more.

The specially designed mixing wand incorporates air into the mixture for fluffier results. The unit consists of a 15.5-inch-tall power mixing stand, which has a tilt-back motor head connected to a long thin mixing rod. A separate 12-ounce stainless-steel cup locks into position on the stand for hands-free operation. A two-speed control switch is located atop the motor head and clicks into position at the low and high settings. The weighted base provides a sturdy support system so there's no worry of tipping.

The stainless-steel cup can be pre-chilled and is ideal for creating frosty shakes, floats, and other fountain drinks. Because there is no "blade" so to speak, the mixer cannot chop ice or crush whole fruit pieces into a mixture. To clean, fill the stainless-steel container with warm water and blend for about 10 seconds. Wipe the shaft and wash the container as usual. This unit comes in seven assorted colors.

The mixing shaft does an excellent job with liquids, mixed with yogurt, ice cream, mashed or pureed fruit, and powdered mixes. And the Hamilton Beach 65114 can mix most drinks in less than 2 minutes.
