Mixer mixes money for cure

A kitchen classic is looking

pretty in pink as it raises money for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer

Foundation.

The KitchenAid Model A-9 Coffee

Mill, designed by noted industrial designer Egmont Arens and introduced

in 1938, is now available in the foundation's signature color. The

grinder was relaunched earlier this year in a variety of colors and is

identical to the original appliance, not a retro-style redesign.

The mill grinds coffee beans

a few at a time and uses a gentle, low-friction grinding method to avoid

subjecting the beans to high heat, which can affect the flavor.

The pink version is expected

to be available in late September at www.cookforthecure.com and select

stores, including J.C. Penney and Williams-Sonoma. The suggested retail

price is $129.99. KitchenAid will donate $10 to the Komen foundation for

each one sold.
