A continuous paste mixer comprising a mixing apparatus secured to a frame is described herein. The mixing apparatus includes one or more mixer assemblies configured to extend and stack with respect to the frame, the one or more mixer assemblies to mix various ingredients (thixotropic and/or non-Newtonian) continuously and uniformly without risking uncontrolled exothermic reactions. The continuous paste mixer comprises a support member operatively connected to the mixing apparatus, and a controller configured to automatically control movement and operation of the high-shear mixer during mixing according to one or more mixing profiles.
