BLENDING TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
•
When pureeing solid ingredients, start with small portions in the jug and gradually add
more ingredients as they begin to combine.
•
When blending liquids into solid ingredients start with a small amount of liquid and
gradually add more liquid through the lid opening. However, do not start the blender
without the cap as ingredients may be ejected through the hole.
•
Always let cooked ingredients cool before blending. All food and liquid should be at
room temperature or below.
•
For stirring solid or very thick liquid ingredients it is recommended that you use the
Pulse function first to avoid overloading the motor.
•
Cut all firm, fresh fruits and vegetables into smaller pieces no larger than 1.8cm to
2.5cm for the Blastomatic and personal blending bottles. For the jug, food should be
no larger than 4cm to 5cm.
•
Ensure all frozen fruits and vegetables are no larger than 1.5cm to 2cm for the
Blastomatic and personal blending bottles plus jug.
•
When blending dry goods (i.e. making bread crumbs, flours, etc.) ensure the jug is
completely dry.
•
It is best to begin the blending process at a lower speed and then increase to a higher
speed if necessary.
•
When crushing ice with no other ingredients, use 2 cups ice max (about 15 cubes).
Make sure jug is completely dry before ice crushing.
•
It is recommended you use at least 250ml of liquid when using the personal blending
or Blastomatic bottle for optimal results.
•
Do not overload the jug or bottles. If the motor stalls, turn the device off immediately,
unplug the unit and let it cool for at least 20 minutes. Then remove a portion of the
food and continue.
•
The lid cap holds up to 60ml of liquid and can be used as a measure when adding
ingredients such as olive oil, vinegar, milk, etc.
•
When using the Pulse function, use short bursts for a maximum of 5 seconds. Allow
the blades to stop rotating between pulses.
