The Swedish Secret: Why Ankarsrum Is One of a Kind
At first glance, the Ankarsrum might look different from any other planetary mixer you've ever seen. And you're right. Its genius lies in a revolutionary and patented design: It's the bowl that rotates, not the tool. This apparently simple approach is the key to its superiority. While traditional planetary mixers force a hook through the dough, the Ankarsrum simulates the loving and energetic movement of the hands of an experienced baker. The roller and the kneading hook gently work the mass against the walls of the rotating bowl, developing the glutinic mesh optimally, without stressing or overheating the dough. The result? Bread with a perfect honeycomb, lighter pizzas, fluffy panettone and a texture that you could never get otherwise.
But the genius doesn't stop there. Built with a solid die-cast metal body and an incredibly powerful and quiet direct drive motor, the Ankarsrum is built to last. Each machine is still assembled by hand and tested in the historic factory in Ankarsrum, Sweden. It is an investment that cannot be devalued, a piece of cooking history that you will pass on to your children, along with your best recipes.

The World of Accessories: Transform Your Mixer into a Complete Culinary Center
The real magic of Ankarsrum lies in its incredible versatility. Thanks to an ingenious system of side and upper power take-offs, the motor body is transformed into a base for more than 18 optional accessories. Forget the idea of having to buy a separate meat grinder, sheeter, blender, and grater. With Ankarsrum, you have only one powerful and reliable engine for endless preparations. Let's see together how some of these accessories can solve the most common kitchen problems and unleash your creativity.
Fresh Restaurant Pasta, Effortless
The Problem: Do you love fresh pasta, but does the idea of rolling out the dough by hand with a rolling pin make you want to go away? The sheets are never the right thickness and the kitchen is transformed into a floured battlefield.
The Ankarsrum Solution: With theLasagne Leafer Accessory, transform your dough (prepared in a few minutes in a steel bowl) into perfect, smooth and homogeneous sheets. Just mount the accessory on the side socket, set one of the 6 available thicknesses and pass the dough through. In a few moments, you'll have a perfect base for lasagna, cannelloni, ravioli or, by adding the optional cutting rollers, for fettuccine and tagliolini.
- Consistent and professional results
- Immense time and effort savings
- Total control over the thickness of the dough
The Secret of the Best Ragù (and Hamburger)
The Problem: The minced meat from the supermarket is often of dubious origin, with a fat content that is not ideal and loses freshness quickly. You would like to prepare gourmet burgers, artisanal sausages or an exceptional ragù, but you lack the right tool.
The Ankarsrum Solution: The Meat Grinder Set It is one of the most popular accessories. Robust and entirely made of metal, it allows you to grind any type of meat to perfection, choosing the cut and the percentage of fat. The set includes several discs to obtain a fine, medium or coarse-grained grain, the funnel for bagging sausages and even accessories for soups and biscuits. The quality of your ragù, your meatballs or your hamburgers will reach a higher level.
- Total control over quality and freshness
- Customizing meat mixes
- Versatility for sausages, pates and much more
Vegetables and Cheeses Ready in a Flash
The Problem: Grating large quantities of carrots for a cake, potatoes for a gateau or Parmesan cheese to season pasta for the whole family is a tedious, tiring and, at times, dangerous operation for the fingers.
The Ankarsrum Solution: THEVegetable Grater/Slicer Accessory is the answer. With its different interchangeable rollers, you can finely, roughly grate or slice vegetables, dried fruits, aged cheeses and chocolate in a matter of seconds. Assemble the accessory, turn on the machine and insert the ingredients. Perfect result, zero fatigue.
- Unbeatable speed for large quantities
- Safe and easy to clean
- Essential for salads, savoury pies and garnishes
The Morning Vitamin Charge

The Ankarsrum Solution: Lo Citrus juicer attaches directly to the motor base and uses all its power to extract every last drop of juice from oranges, lemons, grapefruits and limes. It's fast, efficient, and incredibly easy to take apart and wash. A healthy and tasty breakfast has never been so simple.

Pro Tips: Make the Most of Your Ankarsrum
To become a real master of using your Ankarsrum, here are some practical tips and the most common mistakes to avoid. Follow them to guarantee your machine a long life and always achieve impeccable results.
Things to Do (The Pillars of Success)
- Always Start Slowly: Always start the machine at minimum speed and increase it gradually. This allows the ingredients to mix properly and protects the engine.
- Use the Timer: The Ankarsrum is so quiet that you might forget it on! Use the built-in timer to control kneading times and don't risk overworking the dough.
- Adjust the Arm: Learn how to adjust the distance of the roller (or hook) from the bowl wall. For small doughs, bring it closer. For large doughs, set it aside. It's your 'gear changer' for perfect kneading.
- Use the Scraper: The supplied scraper is not optional. Always use it: it cleans the walls of the bowl and pushes the dough towards the center, ensuring uniform mixing without you having to stop the machine.
- Cold Ingredients for Grinding: When using the meat grinder, make sure that both the meat and the metal parts of the accessory are very cold (you can put them in the freezer for 15-20 minutes). This guarantees a clean cut of fat and meat, instead of a pulped dough.
Mistakes to Avoid (Small Pitfalls)
- Don't Overload: Although the bowl is huge (7 liters), it respects the maximum capacities indicated in the manual (up to 5 kg of dough). Overloading will not damage the powerful motor, but it may affect the quality of the dough.
- Do not Use Aggressive Detergents: Clean the accessories immediately after use with warm water and mild soap. Some aluminum parts (such as the meat grinder) do not go in the dishwasher so as not to oxidize.
- Don't Ignore the Plastic Bowl: The equipment also includes a 3.5 liter plastic bowl and wire and leaf whips. It is perfect for whipping cream, egg whites, preparing bases for cakes and creams. Not using it is a real waste of potential!
- Don't Force Accessories: Each accessory is easy to assemble. If you feel resistance, stop and check that you have it positioned correctly. There is never a need to force.
- Don't Underestimate Stability: Even though the Ankarsrum is incredibly stable thanks to its rubber feet, always make sure it's placed on a flat, solid, and clean surface before starting it, especially at higher speeds.
