Look about perfect. Maybe just slightly under mixed but I would probably go with it like it is

Personally it’s over mixed. I like mine with a little less macronage because filling it into the piping bag itself knocks more air out.

I’d say slightly under-mixed. Have you tried the figure 8 test? It also looks like your dry ingredients might not be fine/sifted enough.

Looks way over mixed to me. Mine flows like slooooow lava.

Gotta love the mix of responses here. I think it’s up to how you like it.
You’ll figure it out for yourself, honestly. However, like others have said, I also like mine slightly undermixed because I tend to handle them a bit while getting it into the bag and piping out. I don’t like my macs to spread too much, so having them slightly under ensures they don’t end up all over place when I pipe them out. This is my preference.

This definitely looks to be mixed to a degree, so to answer your question… Yes

personally i think its a tad under mixed, you want that flow to be consistent but not too fast, but i have learned that i would rather have it under mixed then over mixed- over mixing will cause hallows

Send to have mixed responses here. Personally I think you overmixed it. How did the macarons turn out?

Does the mix of responses here maybe depend on the type of meringue you use? Possible cooked (I.e. Italian and Swiss) meringue is stiffer than french?
