Grayish residue in bottom of bowl

Possible Solutions

• A mechanical polishing process is used in stainless steel bowls to make them shiny.
• Occasionally, new stand mixer bowls may have residue in the bowl that cannot be removed in the dishwasher or by hand washing.
  • This residue can discolor food items mixed in the bowl and is not harmful.

​Resolution:

KitchenAid recommends putting a small amount of olive oil in the bowl and spreading it around inside the bowl.

• Let this sit for several minutes, then wipe the oil out.
• After removing the oil, wash the bowl with hot water and a good detergent.
