There are two kinds of egg beaters commonly used at home: manual egg beater and electric egg beater
Edit this paragraph
Manual egg beater
(as shown in Figure 1)
Manual egg beater is usually made of stainless steel, which is used to beat cream, egg whites and so on. If there are different sizes, choose the required size according to the demand. It is one of the essential baking tools when making West Point. Manual eggbeater is mainly used for beating eggs, whipping cream and stirring materials. The iron bars are denser, and the harder ones are better. I suggest you buy a good quality one, because this tool is most commonly used in baking.
with electric egg beater (described below), do you need a manual eggbeater? The answer is yes. Because electric egg beater is fast, it's easy to make the dough stiff when making the cake batter, so it's better to use a manual eggbeater to stir the batter. If you don't have a electric egg beater, you can make a perfect West Point with a manual eggbeater. It just takes a lot of physical labor. Those who want to punish "laborers" can omit electric egg beater.

electric egg beater
Figure 2: Portable electric egg beater
[1] electric egg beater is divided into portable electric egg beater and seated electric egg beater with bucket, which are briefly introduced as follows:
A: Portable electric egg beater (as shown in Figure 2)
At present, this kind of egg beater is mostly 18W-3W in the market, and it is recommended to choose 25-3W W. If the power is too small, it is not easy to send things away and the product is easy to burn. Another very important point is that it is equipped with an egg-beating net and a stirring hook. For the sake of health, it is recommended to buy stainless steel. At present, most of the egg-beating nets on the market are actually electroplated, and the coating is easy to fall off during use. If you care about this, be sure to confirm it before buying.

B: electric egg beater with bucket (as shown in Figure 5)
This is actually to add a base on the basis of hand withdrawal and put a rotatable mixing bucket on it, which is convenient and labor-saving.
generally, an egg beater with a barrel can mix dough, so the cost performance is super high. Generally 3-5W power. When buying this kind of egg beater, it is recommended not to choose an excessively cheap model. Generally speaking, the price is around 15-3 yuan.

note: when using electric egg beater, you must pay attention to maintenance! Don't let the machine work continuously for a long time. Generally, let the machine work continuously for 3-1 minutes and have a rest, depending on the quality of the machine you buy!
★ Manual egg beater combined with electric egg beater ★
electric egg beater is convenient and labor-saving, and it is difficult to play the whole egg, so you must use electric egg beater. But electric egg beater is not suitable for all occasions. For example, when sending a small amount of butter, or when you don't need to send it, you just need to mix eggs, sugar and oil, it will be more convenient and fast to use a manual eggbeater. Therefore, these two kinds of eggbeaters are required by baking enthusiasts.
