KitchenAid Sifter with Scale Attachment for Stand Mixers — KSMSFTA, 4‑Cup Hopper & Digital Scale

If you bake often or want more reliable results from recipes, the KitchenAid Sifter with Scale Attachment streamlines measuring and sifting into a single step that connects to your stand mixer's power hub. Designed to work with household KitchenAid Stand Mixers, the unit combines a digital scale, a 4-cup hopper, and a motor-driven sifter so you can add weighed, aerated ingredients gradually without pausing to spoon and sift by hand.

How does this attachment improve baking consistency?

The attachment measures ingredients by weight and sifts them automatically, eliminating uneven clumps and guesswork from volume measures. This produces lighter, more even batters and doughs because ingredients are aerated and added slowly, which helps with uniform mixing.

• Digital scale reads ingredients by weight for precise measurements.
• Motor-driven sifter aerates flour and dry mixes to remove lumps.
• Swivel chute dispenses sifted ingredients gradually into the bowl.
• 4-cup hopper reduces refills during multi-ingredient recipes.

Will it work with my KitchenAid stand mixer and how is it installed?

The KSMSFTA is made to connect to the power hub on all household KitchenAid Stand Mixers and runs using the mixer's motor. Installation is straightforward: attach the sifter housing to the mixer's hub, secure the hopper, place the scale accessory plate if using independently, and align the swivel chute over the bowl.

• Compatible with household KitchenAid stand mixer power hubs (mixer sold separately).
• Tool-free assembly—snap parts into the sifter housing and secure the chute.
• Scale can be used on the counter with the included accessory plate.
• Storage case keeps components organized when not in use.

What cleaning and maintenance does the sifter require?

Most pieces are dishwasher-safe for simple cleanup; remove the scale and sifter housing before washing to protect electronics and motor components. Rinse or place removable parts on the dishwasher's top rack and wipe the digital scale with a damp cloth.

• Sifted parts (except scale and sifter housing) are dishwasher-safe.
• Wipe the digital scale and housing with a damp cloth only.
• Empty and brush the hopper after use to prevent residue build-up.
• Store all parts in the included case to avoid damage and loss.

What exactly comes in the KSMSFTA package?

The model KSMSFTA ships with every component you need to measure, sift and dispense dry baking ingredients without extra purchases. Parts were designed to interlock for easy use and tidy storage.

• One digital scale and one scale accessory plate for countertop weighing.
• One ingredient hopper with 4-cup capacity and removable sifter.
• One sifter housing and swivel chute that directs ingredients into the bowl.
• One convenient storage case to hold all components together.

Who is this for: Home bakers who want more precise, repeatable results—from weekend cake makers to frequent bread and pastry bakers—will benefit from the KitchenAid Sifter with Scale attachment. It’s especially useful when you follow weight-based recipes, prepare delicate batters that need gradual incorporation, or want to minimize prep time and countertop clutter. Note that the attachment depends on a KitchenAid household stand mixer power hub (mixer sold separately), and electronic parts require basic care during cleaning and storage.
