Hints and Tips on how to use your Breville Power Blender
Suggested Uses for Your Breville Power Blender
Suggested Uses
Crush Ice
To crush ice, place 1 cup of ice cubes into the blender
jug. Replace the lid and turn the speed selection dial
to PULSE for short bursts until a snowy textured ice is
achieved. This will take approximately 15 seconds. When
crushing ice, hold the lid in place to avoid displacement
during operation.
Bread Crumbs
Remove the crusts from the bread and tear into pieces.
Process
sufficient
pieces at a time to cover the blades. Up
to 5 slices at one time can be crumbed. Stale bread will
produce the best results.
Chopped Nuts
Blend ¾ cup of nuts at a time. Use the PULSE setting as
this will give more even chopping.
Drinks
Fill the blender jug to at least ¼ full and remember to
leave room to allow froth to form as the drink is aerated.
Ground coffee
Coffee beans can be ground
sufficientl
y
fine
for a
percolator or for infusion, but not
finel
y enough for
dripolator or espresso machines. Blend ½ cup coffee
beans at a time.
Soups, Sauces and Purees
The most
efficient
amount to blend will depend on the
food/recipe used. However, generally, the more liquid
used, the more can be processed at one time. Never
process boiling liquids or hot ingredients, allow to cool
before placing into the blender jug.
