keverését

Keversését is a grammatical form of the Hungarian noun keverés, referring to the act of stirring or mixing. In general, keverését denotes the process of combining substances—such as liquids, powders or emulsions—by agitation or mechanical action, with the aim of achieving a homogeneous or suitably blended result. The term is used across technical, culinary and scientific texts to describe the action itself or the handling of the stirring process.

The concept encompasses manual and mechanical methods. Manual keveréses include stirring with a spoon, whisk, or spatula, while mechanical keverésé uses devices such as handheld mixers, stand mixers, blenders, magnetic stirrers, or industrial agitators. The choice of method depends on the required mixing intensity, volume, viscosity and sensitivity of the ingredients. In cooking, keverését can be used to distribute heat, dissolve solutes, or incorporate air, affecting texture and flavor. In laboratories and industry, keverését is used to form solutions, emulsions, suspensions or homogenized blends, often under controlled speed, duration and temperature.

Key variables that influence keverését include mixing speed, duration, temperature, and the rheological properties of the substances involved. Poor keverését can lead to incomplete dissolution, phase separation or air incorporation, while over-mixing may cause undesirable textures or foaming. Proper technique and appropriate equipment are essential to achieve the desired consistency and stability of the final product.
