Blending with the Instant Ace Nova
Cold Blending
Cold blending programs do not apply heat, and blend at different intervals
throughout the countdown to break down frozen fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds,
oats and more. Make quick smoothies, crush ice for summer drinks, create frozen
yogurt and small-batch sorbet, and whip up delicious homemade nut and oat milks.
Note:
The blender will
not
cool or freeze food items. For smoothies and frozen desserts, use
chilled and frozen ingredients and tamp often.
