Egg beaters are essential in baking. In order to avoid novices taking detours
Egg beaters are divided into manual egg beaters and electric egg beaters. For manual egg beaters, choose 304 Stainless steel is fine, and it doesn’t matter if it’s a brand or not. The one I bought was not a brand, and it wasn’t expensive. A while ago, a steel wire fell off, but it didn’t affect its use.
There are more things to pay attention to when choosing an electric egg beater. We mainly choose from the following aspects.
1. Brand
When choosing an electric egg beater, it is best to choose a brand. You can check it yourself to see which brands are better and make a comparison. The egg beater lasts longer and is safer.
2. Power
The power of egg beaters varies, usually between 50W-300W. It is recommended that you do not choose too small when choosing, but at least choose 150W. , the power is high, the firing speed is fast, and the firing degree is good. Egg beaters with different powers also have different prices. You can choose according to your actual needs and economic situation.
3. Material The material of the egg beater is divided into body material and egg beater material. The body material is plastic or stainless steel. When choosing plastic material, it is best to choose ABS material. A (Acrylonitrile) makes it resistant to chemical corrosion, heat resistance, and has a certain surface hardness. B (Dibutene) makes it highly elastic and tough. S (styrene) makes it have the processing and molding characteristics of thermoplastic plastics and improves them. electrical properties. The body made of this material is strong and wear-resistant, not prone to aging and cracking, and the egg beater has a longer lifespan.
I use this material myself. Stainless steel ones are heavier and more durable than plastic ones, but they are also relatively more expensive.
The egg beater is in direct contact with the ingredients. It must be made of stainless steel, which is safe, reliable and will not rust.
4. Gears
Different electric egg beaters have different gear designs. Some electric egg beaters have only one gear, and some have multiple gears. When choosing, be sure to choose an electric egg beater with gears. Different ingredients and different whipping states have different gear requirements. Generally, when beating egg whites, we should first use the high setting to make the egg whites fluffy. When the egg whites are about to reach the state we want, we should switch to the low setting to eliminate the bad large bubbles and make the meringue more delicate.
5. Heat dissipation
An eggbeater with good heat dissipation will have a longer service life. An inferior eggbeater will become hot and scorched during use.

High-quality electric egg beaters have special ventilation holes for heat dissipation and use the airflow principle to dissipate heat, which can extend the working time and the service life of the motor, so you should try to choose the brand when purchasing.
6. The shape of the egg beater head
The egg beater heads of electric egg beaters are mainly lantern-shaped, equally wide at the top and bottom, and wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. When choosing Try to choose the first 2 options, the effect will be better than the last one.
