Operation and tips
Never overfill the jugs. Never start the appliance on empty. Use the correcting timing
according to the results you are trying to achieve or the recipes you prepare.
When following a recipe always follow the ingredients advised order and ensure the
ingredients are chopped to no more than 2-3 cm in length. Never use more than 5 ice
cubes and always cover the ingredients with water.
You can make whole fibre juices, soups, smoothies, shakes, protein shakes, sauces, hot
drinks and nut milks.
When processing ingredients always follow this order from bottom to top:
- leafy greens at the bottom
- soft fruits / peeled citrus in the middle
- hard ingredients chopped and flavours / spices at top
- ice cubes above
- water to cover up to max line or 750 ml if hot liquid or hot drink is made.
1-3 minutes of blending are enough for whole fibre juices, smoothies or shakes.
Up to 5 minutes will pulverised and homogenize nut milks.
5-7 minutes for raw vegetable soups at 50-60⁰C or steaming soups if boiling water is
used instead of cold.
10-15 minutes of processing vegetables, herbs, spices and cold water is enough to create
piping hot soups from cold ingredients. The friction heat is transferred to the liquid
creating delicious hot drinks. Hot chocolate or dairy free alternative can be created from
cold ingredients as well. To create a smooth soup with less froth just add 1 or 2 spoons
of olive oil. This will improve taste and help with the absorption of nutrients.
If ingredients do not circulates inside the jug; the appliance may be overloaded, had
trapped air or the mixture may be too solid. Stop the unit and insert the tamper through
the lid opening and help the mixture to move. Do not exceed the processing time
unnecessary. If mixture still does not circulate and recipe allows add small amounts of
liquid to help circulation. You can use again the tamper to help the mixture circulating.
If processing
hot liquids
never load to maximum markings as there is further liquid
expansion; we advise to fill only 3/4 of the jug when using hot liquids. Release some of
the liquid via the dispenser as hot liquids gradually increase their volume. Be cautious
when removing the lid as hot liquids may release steam or splash and is risk of scalding.
When creating juices, smoothies, cocktails or other cold drinks add ice cubes to keep the
mixture cold. This will allow a smother crispier texture, ensuring better taste.
