Ankarsrum Assistent Original Mixer - Ocean Blue

Ankarsrum Assistent Original Stand Mixer in Ocean Blue

Ocean Blue is one of the colors in Ankarsrum’s Essential Package lineup, and the mixer behind the finish is designed around serious bread baking. The Assistent Original turns its bowl and holds the tools still, so there is no oscillating head, and its base-mounted motor keeps the machine from creeping across the counter while it kneads up to 11 pounds (5 kilograms) of heavy dough. This listing is the Essential Package, Ankarsrum’s present configuration.

Why Bread Bakers Choose It

• No Oscillating Head: With the bowl rotating and the tools fixed, the machine reproduces the motion of hand kneading. The payoff is superior gluten development and a motor that is not taxed by dense dough.


• Access From All Sides: Nothing hangs over the bowl, so flour or liquid can be added from any side while the mixer keeps running.


• Quiet Operation: Ankarsrum highlights the quiet running of its motor, which is welcome during long kneading cycles.


• Load-Sensing Power: A variable speed sensor tells the high-torque motor how hard to work, and the built-in 12-minute timer lets you repeat a kneading time exactly.


• Sized for Big Batches: The 7-liter bowl handles anything from a lone egg white to 5 kilograms (11 pounds) of dough. Whipping that egg white calls for the optional Premium Beater Set, because whisks are not part of the Essential Package.


• Built in Sweden: Swedish hands have assembled every Assistent since 1940. A die-cast aluminum body houses the motor, and the control dials are finished in chrome-plated zinc.

Whisking Takes Add-Ons

Egg whites, cream, and creamed batters are outside what the Essential Package covers. The Premium Beater Set provides the beaters and requires the Ankarsrum Stainless Steel Beater Bowl, which you buy separately. Prefer a single purchase? The Premium Beater Set & Bowl Complete packages both together. Bakers focused on bread will find the included tools sufficient.
