KitchenAid Mixer Grease Change When do you need to change the grease in you mixer??GREASE LIQUEFIESKitchenAid recommends you change your grease once a year! This is relevant to how often you use your machine. For those who have oil leaking from the Planetary Ring (the chrome ring) then you need to change your grease. Not all greases are equal: Once upon a time, some claimed that the dark grease you see in the gearbox was not food safe. This was MicroLubrol™ Gear and Bearing Grease for Kitchen Mixers. I've not been able to confirm this. Now they use a H2 grease. NSF - (H2-specific lubricants are for machinery that doesn’t come in direct contact with food, such as a forklift. It is used in areas where there is no possibility of direct contact with food, beverages or pharmaceutical products.) There are 3 tiers of Food Grade Lubrication - H1, H2, H3. We think the white grease once used for the planetary gears was intended to be food safe, but in fact was probably a H2 grease. Why all this detail, just to let you know that we use a NSF - class H1 grease in the gearbox. It is not uncommon for the grease in the gearbox to liquify and drip into the food. So a H2 grease, while considered a food industry grease, is not what you want dripping into your mixer bowl. So the current W11200218 KITCHENAID STAND MIXER FOOD GRADE GREASE sold by the local KitchenAid spare parts outlet is a H2 grease.The H3 class lubricant is intended to stop food adhering to processing components such as mincers, boning benches, grills, bench tops etc. so edible if you felt the need. How much to get the grease changed The devil's in the detail! WHAT'S INCLUDED?To just change the grease we currently (May 2022) charge a fixed rate of $150.oo. That gets you true H1 grease. There is a 50% chance you'll need the gasket changed and maybe the two fibre washers, O ring and the worm gear. These things we can't know until we disassemble the unit. After the repair The mixer will smell of grease/oilWHAT COMES BACKThe mixer has had a bath yay!!! Sounds refreshing; which it is for the mixer, but not so much for you. Mixer's bath in chemicals and are then re-greased and oiled. The new grease/oil smells like new grease and oil. And if we have re-oiled your armature bush wicking pad, then it's likely going to leak some of that oil and maybe eventually make its way to the external body of the mixer!There are also little nooks and crannies that hold some of the liquids, only to dribble them out over time. Hopefully not too much and not for very long. Just wipe it up with a paper towel and continue mixing. But for the most part you shouldn't notice too much more than the smell. What next?
