Mixstir Features

Better batters, faster

batter mixer
A low‑RPM motor keeps batters in constant, gentle motion—quick enough to prevent settling, slow enough to avoid foaming—protecting food quality and making the Mixstir the best mixer for preparing batters and liquid seasoning mixes.

Aeration-free blade design

mixer blade
The Mixstir commercial batter mixer features an exclusive wing-shaped blade design with ideal angles and no sharp edges. Unlike standard mixers that spin too quickly and aerate product, the Mixstir’s ideal speed stirs ingredients thoroughly without impacting flavor profiles.

Save time and money

kitchen mixer
Operators get more consistent batters and constantly suspended mixtures than they would with any conventional batter mixer or commercial blender mixer, all while reclaiming valuable prep time and labor dollars.

Stainless steel construction

stainless steel mixer
From frame to vessel, every food‑contact surface is polished stainless steel. This rugged finish creates a commercial mixer blender that stands up to years of nonstop use without cracking or breaking – reducing downtime and wasted product.

Two vessel sizes

mixer sizes
Choose the standard 7‑quart vessel for small‑batch prep, or step up to the large 8‑gallon (32‑quart) vessel for high‑volume production. The large Mixstir can blend larger volumes of batter in just 60 seconds and includes a built-in faucet for easy pouring.

Perfectly sized basket

mixer baskets
The 7-quart model is available with a basket insert that slides easily into the liquid mixer. Ideal for Nashville-style oil-based sauces that need to be constantly mixed to keep the seasoning suspended, the basket allows chicken to be dipped and then lifted out without interfering with the blade.

AyrKing Mixstir Operating Video

The patented, 2020 KI Award Honoree, the AyrKing Mixstir! From blending batter, seasoning mixes and any menu item that requires frequent or slow stirring to ensure product consistency.

What is the AyrKing Mixstir?

The AyrKing Mixstir is here to help ease the decision to move away from the labor intensive and inconsistent hand mixing or from the high rpm standard blenders that add aeration into the product and are prone to breaking in the harsh commercial kitchen environments.

The AyrKing Mixstir

The Mixstir is a commercial blender/mixer/stirrer ideal for preparing batters, liquid seasoning mixes and any menu item that requires constant stirring without injecting air in the product and disturbing the flavor profile.

Meet the Mixstirs

The stainless steel construction of the AyrKing Mixstir makes it more durable than traditional commercial blenders, and the patented wing-shaped blade design thoroughly blends dry particles with both hot and cold liquids.

Mixstir is designed for fried-food batters, custom sauces and liquid seasoning dips (e.g. Nashville-hot oil), keeping spices suspended and texture consistent without foaming.

Mixstir has two size options: a 7-quart vessel for smaller batches and an 8-gallon (32-quart) vessel for high volume operations. Choose based on batch size and your kitchen’s throughput.
