You can change your pastas easily with a twist of the knob allowing you to make a variety of fresh homemade pastas at home.
This item says that it is dishwasher safe however it says right on each attachment not to submerge in water so I would recommend washing by hand and drying immediately, that’s what I do with mine.
I have seen in reviews that a grey residue was left behind on pastas while rolling them out. The response was that if the stainless steel is left in water for to long it will start to oxidize causing a greyish residue.
This residue is not harmful at all but who wants grey pasta, just hand wash to avoid that problem.

I find it very helpful during apple season when I am canning apple pie filling, applesauce and apple butter or large family gatherings when I need to make a huge amount of potatoes.

This grain mill attachment is not dishwasher safe, it must be cleaned by hand. There is an included cleaning brush with this attachment allowing you to get into the grates where leftover ground grains can be left behind.
What Can Be Ground With The Grain Mill & What Does It Make?
Hard White Wheat Grains: Use for making breads this will allow for a higher rise with breads of all sorts because it has a high gluten content compared to other grains
Soft White Wheat Grains: Use for cookies, pastries, muffins, pancakes and other lighter baked goods that require a lighter fluffier texture. You can mix both the hard and soft white grains after grinding to have a more all purpose flour mixture
Hard Red Wheat Grains: Use this flour for making homemade tortillas, bread wraps and flatbreads. This makes a much heavier and denser texture to baked goods
Quinoa, Buckwheat, Rice & Millet Grains: Use to make gluten free flours

The Kitoart masticating juicer attachment has 7 stages to its juicing extraction process to ensure you get all the of the fresh juice your fruits, veggies and even your leafy greens have to offer.
The spiral stainless steel blade has flat edges not sharp so that it extracts the most juice from your ingredients.
The 7 stages of the juicing process when put into the juicer with this attachment are:
- Cutting the fruits, veggies and leafy greens
- Breaking down the ingredients
- Squeezing all the produce together
- Milling to make the chunky pieces smooth
- Separating the solids from the liquid
- Grinding everything together into pulp
- Extracting the juice and the pulp separately
The masticating juicer attachment will extract the most juice from all of your chosen ingredients compared to centrifugal juicing.
Masticating juicers use a crushing technique to get the most juice and nutrients out of the ingredients that you put in.
The slow crushing technique keeps your foam levels down and because it extracts more of the nutrients and juice from the ingredients you will have a thicker juice as well.
Centrifugal juicers use a high speed and fast rotating sharp blade to break the ingredients used apart, pretty much shredding them.
This causes nutrients to be lost, more foam to be present in your finished juice and juice from your ingredients being left behind as waste with the pulp.
Masticating juicers will extract more nutrients from your ingredients, less foam and less waste.
What Can You Juice With The Masticating Juicer Attachment?
Fruits: apples, oranges, watermelons, pineapples, berries, cantelope, lemons, limes, etc.
Veggies: carrots, celery, cucumbers, tomatoes, beets, grapes, dragon fruits, etc.
Herbs: basil, mint, milk thistle, chamomile, nettle, fennel, dandelion, etc.
Leafy Greens: spinach, kale, lettuce, parsley, dandelion greens, etc.
Juicing is a very healthy way to get so many nutrients straight into your body without the use of supplements that don’t always digest completely to give you all the benefits you want.
As you can see above there are so many varieties of produce to choose to make your juicing recipes delicious and healthy.
A masticating juicer is one of the best ways to get all the nutrients from your ingredients with the flavors you enjoy.
The great thing about this masticating juicer attachment is the size compared to a countertop juicer and the price.
A countertop masticating juicer isn’t just larger by size but they can run very expensive. The juicer attachment for your KitchenAid stand mixer is a fraction of the cost.
This comes with a 1 year manufacturers warranty
Works with all KitchenAid stand mixers
- Doesn’t take up counter space like a full size masticating juicer
- The slow masticating juicer will extract the most nutrients and juice from your ingredients without a lot of foam
- 90% juice yield
- Strong enough to juice leafy greens and fresh herbs
- This is not dishwasher safe
- Does not come with a food pushing tool to ensure all your ingredients get fed completely through
Does KitchenAid Offer Other Attachments For Their Stand Mixers?
KitchenAid does have more stand mixer attachments to choose from. The stand mixer attachments that I reviewed are ones that I have personally used and can say that I really enjoy in my kitchen. They are easy to store and keep my counters and pantry less cluttered from having multiple kitchen appliances.
Some of the other KitchenAid standing mixer attachments are:
- Sifter Scale: This attachment looks great especially if you like to bake a lot. It has a top unit that you put your ingredients into and a battery operated digital measurement is seen on the front so that you know exactly how much you are putting into your recipe. After all of your ingredients are added to the 4 cup measurement holder, you can turn the knob on the side and it will automatically sift all of your ingredients into your mixing bowl attached to your stand mixer. This is also compatible with all KitchenAid stand mixers.
- Meat Tenderizer: This attachment is used to tenderize cuts of meats such as steaks, chuck roasts, pork chops, etc., it is not intended for chicken or fish and your meat thickness can’t exceed 4/5″. Your meats are pulled through the cutting tenderizer blades, which are sharp, to tenderize your meats in a matter of seconds. This attachment is compatible with all KitchenAid stand mixers.
- Ice Shaver: This attachment shaves your cubed ice into snow, so if you are a fan of snow cones or enjoy shaved ice for coffee or smoothies you may enjoy this. It attaches to the hub of all KitchenAid stand mixers and can 1 pint of ice in 60 seconds.
- Ice Cream Maker: This attachment makes homemade ice cream and is compatible with only some KitchenAid stand mixers. Some reviews stated that they bought it because their model was included in the list that it was compatible for and found it wouldn’t fit in the base of their stand mixers. I stayed away from buying this, even though I was very tempted mainly because a lot of reviews stated that their bowls broke or cracked and a clear liquid ice was leaking out. I’m assuming the liquid is what makes the bowl so ice cold for making ice cream. Anyway, I decided that I would pass on this attachment and wait until they improve the quality of it.
- Bundles: There are also a few bundle options from KitchenAid themselves and other brands that make the stand mixer attachments. If you are looking for more than just one attachment, you may want to check them out as well and see if it’s less expensive to buy a bundle than 2 separate items.
I hope that you have found the reviews helpful in your buying decision. If you have purchased or own any KitchenAid attachments that I haven’t listed please let us know what you have thought about them and if you would recommend them for others to purchase.
If you have any questions at all please leave them below and I will do my very best to answer them for you. Have a wonderful day 🙂
