For Sale Small Kitchen Appliances: KitchenAid Food Processors, Bosch Compact and Kitchenetics Gourmet Champ Mixers
by L 01 Dec '14

01 Dec '14

*For Sale:* These small kitchen appliances are from a smoke free environment. Please email if you have any questions. Most are posted on Craigslist and you can see pictures by visiting the links below. KitchenAid KFP600, KFP650 11-Cup Food Processors, Made in France http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/app/4755753598.html I have two KitchenAid KFP600 Series/Model 11-cup food processors for sale. Both are in in very good used condition; the KFP600CR (chrome) does have a small crack in the bowl lid, but it does not affect the functionality. The KitchenAid KFP600 series models are the last ones made in France, and they are really powerful, dependable and well made. These do not come with a printed Users Manual, but I can send you the manual by email. Price: $110 for the KFP600 in chrome (color); $140 for the KFP650 in white. /Information Found Online:/// (This described both models in the KFP600 Series): If you're looking for a premium food processor, this KitchenAid model is definitely worth investigating. A well-designed powerhouse designed to become any cook's chief assistant, it measures 14 inches tall and 7-1/2 inches wide, with a clear plastic 11-cup work bowl and a bonus mini bowl, two premium-quality blades, and three discs: a reversible thin slicer/shredder, a medium slicer, and a medium shredder. It also comes with a spatula/cleaning tool and a useful plastic storage case for the blades and discs. Thoughtful features include a quick-lock lid and an easy-to-use feed tube, plus lots of easy-cleaning aspects, such as a sealed housing, a smooth control panel, and a work bowl that completely disassembles. All parts except the base are dishwasher-safe. The pulse feature comes in handy when chopping, slicing, dicing, shredding, or liquefying ingredients, and you'll also use the food processor to mix dough for bread and batter for cookies or muffins. KitchenAid KFP600 11-Cup Professional Food Processor, Chrome Some great features of this product include: * Rated number one in its class by a leading consumer magazine * 600 watts of smooth power * Dough blade and slicing/shredding discs included * Includes mini bowl with its own blade for small jobs * Measures 14.8 inches high by 8.7 inches wide by 10-1/2 inches deep KitchenAid KFP650 11-Cup Professional Food Processor, White * Top-of-the-line model with 11-cup work bowl * Includes 4-cup mini bowl with its own blade for small jobs * 650watts of smooth power guided by electronic sensor * Dough blade, egg whip, and slicing/shredding discs included Bosch Compact MUM 4505UC 450-Watt Stand Mixer/Kitchen Machine http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/app/4755741859.html * 450-watt mixer with ergonomic multi-function arm * 4 electronically controlled speeds plus locking park position * 4-quart bowl; anti-splash cover, beating and stirring whisks, dough hook * Convenient cord storage and suction feed for optimum stability * Measures 10-1/2 by 11 by 13 inches This was found for the Bosch MUM 4405 (400 watt mixer), but would also apply to the MUM 4505 (450 watt mixer): *Trimmer package, big performance!* If the larger Bosch mixer is more than you need, the Bosch Compact Mixer offers the opportunity to enjoy Bosch features, quality and performance in an extremely affordable, integrated system. With standard attachments and available accessories, this stand mixer/kitchen center performs a myriad of kitchen functions quickly and easily and occupies very little space in your kitchen. *Microprocessor-constant speed control The high-torque, 400 watt motor *of the Bosch Compact Mixer has a microprocessor for constant speed control. * The Bosch Compact mixer's *multi-function drive arm combines low and high speed drives, and pivots for convenient use and easy storage. Standard equipment includes a 4 qt. mixing bowl, bowl cover, dough hook, french whip, and batter whisk.* Great mixing: *The Bosch Compact's whip drive doesn't just spin... it also rotates within the bowl. This combination action provides fantastically thorough mixing and whipping. And when the stainless dough hook is attached, it ensures that dough is kneaded to perfection for outstanding baking results! * Compact & versatile: *Built with Bosch's world-famous pride of craftsmanship, the /Bosch Compact Mixer / provides the same quality mixing and kneading results as its bigger siblings in a smaller size. This attractive, strong-performing machine with 4 qt. bowl will compliment your kitchen and make your cooking time more fun and more productive. /Bosch Compact Mixer/ dimensions with bowl are 10.5" tall, 11.5" wide, 12" deep. With bowl removed, 10.5" tall, 9" wide, 9.25" deep. Tens of thousands of happy owners attest that the Bosch Compact Mixer will do great things in your kitchen! * 400 watt motor drives bowl attachments with orbital action (MUM 4505 has a 450 Watt motor) * Four speeds with microprocessor speed control * Easy cleaning * 4 qt. bowl with 6 lb. dough capacity * Compact Mixer includes bowl, stainless dough hook, French whip & batter whisk * Capabilities expand further with optional accessory attachments * Motor overload protection safeguards your investment * Bowl accessories are dishwasher safe /Online Review:/ This mixer has been around for many, many years in more than one name. Though Bosch makes it, it has also been sold as a Siemens in Europe and a Toastmaster over here. Same machine, though, same accessories. As with the larger Universal model, this machine is quite ingenious in its operation. It has a swinging arm (you can see it over the mixing bowl in the photo). This is the position used for mixing and kneading--which is done with a single beater rather like a more flexible Kitchen Aid. This arm, when the bowl is removed, will flip all the way down, exposing another power outlet for the accessory blender and food processor. There is a third power outlet, visible on the top of the mixing arm in the photo. This is used for the accessory slicer/shredder. On the other side of the arm, where the mixing parts attach, is the attachment for the meat grinder. I have made many, many batches of bread and dozens of cakes in the two Compact models I own. It has worked to perfection, additionally being very quiet. The compact size and light weight make it very easy to store and remove from a kitchen cabinet. Just don't be deceived by its small size and light weight. It'll work all day and all night for you and be ready for more. I also own the blender, food processor and meat grinder and enjoy the ease and speed with which they attach and adapt. For someone not needing a large or heavy mixer--and most of us don't--this little machine will outperform the typical American mixer day in and day out. Plus, it'll be quieter and easier to handle at the same time. I've owned at least one of these for fifteen years and haven't had a failure yet, and I don't 'baby' my machines at all. Very highly recommended. *Kitchenetics Gourmet Champ, 6 Quart Mixer*** (Great for making bread and everything else) When I was doing research on the best mixers for making bread, a couple of years ago, I found this. I loved the fact that the Gourmet Champ was still around after 25+ years after it was first produced, and that it was made in Germany, not China; it has proved to be a really wonderful mixer that has stood the test of time, and has handled anything thrown at it. Another benefit of this machine, if you are looking into a grain mill, is that it can be used as the motor for the Family Grain Mill, without a special adapter, that usually costs $50, and considering that the Family Grain Mill electric motor is about $180, this is a great way to go. I am asking $100 for the Kitchenetics Gourmet Champ without the blender or $125 with blender or food processor attachments. It is in good physical condition and great working condition. I do have have several others available. /Online Review:/ This Gadget Could Make You a Champ Baking Your Own Bread October 10, 1985 <http://articles.latimes.com/1985/oct/10>|MINNIE BERNARDINO | Times Staff Writer They call it the Gourmet Champ. A high-powered blender, bread maker, mixer and food processor, the all-purpose machine was recently introduced by Kitchenetics from Germany. According to Bailey Center, director of consumer education at Kitchenetics, majority of the people who buy the Champ are of two types: those who have every new machine that comes up (including all expensive heavy-duty mixers, processors, etc.) or those who have nothing at all. If you have most or even some of the gourmet equipment filling up space on your kitchen counter, would you still buy the Gourmet Champ? The best reason for owning one would be, as we've discovered in The Times' Test Kitchen, the fact that it makes excellent bread in minimal time. No more hand kneading, long rising, punching, resting, punching again--all the time-consuming efforts involved in bread making. Not only that, the machine produced pure whole-wheat bread of optimum volume and light texture. Every bread baker knows that whole wheat and other whole grains do not make a light, high-rising loaf unless they're combined with white flour. Another common bread-baking theory is that excessive flour makes a tough bread or roll. The Champ avoids all of this. We followed a Betty Crocker recipe for white bread and instead of using seven to eight cups of flour as the recipe called for, we only worked with 6 1/2 cups of flour in the Champ. Also, not a speck of flour was sprinkled on the board; to keep the dough from sticking, oil was used. "As the amount of flour needed varies from the day to day," Center explained, "the average housewife has no way of judging the exact amount of flour which absorbs moisture from the air. The machine will also tell you how much flour to use without even measuring. When the dough pulls away from the sides and bottom of the bowl and stays that way, it means that you've used enough flour." After mixing in the flour, all that's needed is kneading the dough in the machine for six minutes. The dough, still warm from the heat of the liquids, is immediately divided with oiled hands and shaped into loaves and placed in pans. "We recommend warming any bread dough in a 140-degree oven until doubled in bulk," Center said. "In this way, the dough is not disturbed by any moving but stays in the oven to bake at the higher temperature." No Overheating Threat The Champ can knead up to 8 1/2 pounds of dough (about four loaves) at one time. Higher than most home mixers' horsepower, a 7.4-amp motor is responsible for the Champ's strength. It is not belt-driven but instead has an all spur gear transmission, eliminating the threat of overheating. However, the strong power and quality of no overheating produce a loud noise level, which requires some getting used to. Although other heavy-duty mixers are capable of whipping fluffy egg whites, the Champ boasts of high-volume meringue. Two large egg whites whip up to 1 3/4 cups volume, and about two cups with sugar. The mixer attachment is a dual balloon whisk unit that rotates efficiently around the bowl. Not having a motor unit above the whisks enables you to watch the mixing more closely and easily add any ingredient. The liquefier/blender in the Champ is driven by a motor that spins the blades at more than 18,000 revolutions per minute. The effect shows up when you crush ice cubes. The unbreakable blender bowl is made of smoked Lexan, a strong plastic material used for bullet-proof windows. Continuous Processing As a food processor, the lightweight motor body of the machine is turned on its back to attach the chopping, grating or slicing accessories. It has a feed tube and a direct outflow design for continuous processing. "I can make buckets of coleslaw without having to stop and empty the container," one Champ owner said. Not standard in the machine are the following attachments, which may be purchased separately: meat grinder, pasta maker with 11 discs, citrus juicer, berry press, sausage stuffer, pastry press-cookie maker and nut grinder. Every reason about buying the Champ sounds like a worthwhile benefit to the cook. The catch? With all that power, it costs more than the average all-purpose kitchen machine, of course.

wedding dj
by kirsten ARNOLD 01 Dec '14

01 Dec '14

Hi neighbors, I put up a post a few weeks ago about a wedding photographer and was surprise and excited about the amount of responses I received so I thought I’d try again! I’m getting married at the end of July and looking for a wedding DJ that is relatively inexpensive and will work with my fiancé and I with making the play list. I found someone who seems great but isn’t insured which our venue requires. If anyone has a recommendation of someone they’ve used or know it would be a great help! Thanks so much! Kirsten Arnold
