  There is no set speed. It is dependent upon so many factors. It takes Judgement and a knowledge of the different blades and their proper uses.

  …what Mark said…and then some. The veteran chemists in this blog could collectively author a textbook on the many modes of and tools and uses for mixers and how these variations perform with different formulations, circumstances, colloidal additives, etc, etc, etc, IS the speed important you ask? As so often the case: depends on the application. Try and see.

  Thinking to buy an anchor blade. Do you use it for the hole process or just for the cool down phase? I’m kind of lazy to change blades during a test. :smiley:
