## What is Mixerology?

Ever wanted to find out when your KitchenAid® brand countertop stand mixer was manufactured? It's easy with Mixerology — all you need to do is point your camera at the serial number label underneath the mixer, and it will decode the model and serial number. No more guesswork, no more trying to decipher complicated charts or misleading Internet search results.

In addition to scanning the label on a mixer, you can also select a photo of the serial number label from your Photos library, or point the camera at a computer screen showing a photo of the label. (This is super handy when checking a for-sale listing.)

Mixerology also decodes the color code from your mixer's model number (if available) and provides links to helpful information about your stand mixer's model type, such as compatible bowls and accessories, care tips, maintenance information, and more.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app!

*2026-01-26*

This app has helped me be transparent with my customers. All the decoder websites are so confusing, and this app has completely alleviated that headache. 10/10!

### 5/5 — Does exactly what you need it to

*2025-11-17*

This app is so great. Got a 600 pro mixer for free from my sister who didn’t want it. I was curious what the age was because who she got it from didn’t say much about it and I need to know what attachments I could use with it. App is so easy you almost feel like you did something wrong! Awesome.

### 5/5 — So happy for this resource

*2025-08-20*

Having acquired three kitchen aid mixers over the last 30 years, this will be an invaluable resource when they start getting wonky!!! Thanks for authoring and maintaining this app!!!
