They are. The bulk of the praise goes to the metallic construction of all the moving parts of the blenders. This is because a blender with plastic moving parts is prone to frequent breakdowns and repairs. There are exceptions. See Omega juicers, whose augers are made of tough plastic. But generally, this is true—metal moving parts for the win. You can get both blenders in a variety of color options. These include black, white, platinum, red, and brushed stainless. This is where you would find a very significant difference between the and the Nor does it come with a pulse function for quick blending and quicker cleaning.
Click here to see the Vitamix The is basic. Entry-level, if you will. But they are convenient and appreciated. So if you are looking for that convenience, the is the answer. You get pulse and 3 programmed settings; Smoothies, Frozen Desserts, and Soups. My take is that the programmed features are worth it. It allows you to turn the machine on and walk away without having to babysit it. This is nice. Sometimes, if rarely, your smoothie may need more or less time than the programmed setting.
Both blenders come with speed settings. You can switch to any speed you like while blending by turning the speed dial to the desired speed. The speed dial of the is only for selecting your blending speed.
On the other hand, the speed dial on the performs a dual function. The right-hand side of the knob features the speed settings. In comparison, you can find the 3 preset functions on its left-hand side.
Both blenders come with a powerful watt, 2 HP motor for blender operation. This wattage is enough to power the blender to achieve a max speed of mph. If in the future I feel I need a 64 ounce container is one available that will be compatible. Ann, yes. Any ounce container from Vitamix will technically work with the Aspire. I recommend the standard taller container that typically comes with all C-Series models, though. Hi, I am comparing vs. I am concerned about how loud they are and if there is truly really any difference in loudness between the two machines …..
Squirrel, I have not performed a direct noise comparison of these two models against one another so I cannot say for certain which one is louder. However, based on my tests of very similar models I would estimate the to be quieter, albeit slightly. The airflow design of the G-Series models is different than that of the C-Series, of which the is one.
All my tests conclude the G-Series to be the quieter machines. Despite the common belief that the difference is significant, though, my real-world tests generally conclude that the noise level difference is often quite negligible. It comes in a variety of colors and with two different package options. For all intents and purposes, however, the blender itself is just like the popular model sold in the U.
The Pro is a G-Series model with a slightly stronger motor and a shorter, wider ounce container than the standard containers that come with most C-Series models. Both blenders are excellent performers and are made to the same quality and performance standards. The Aspire comes with a 5 year warranty while that of the Pro is 7 years. Never used. How much is it worth. Are there collectors out there.
What was the original model number? Seth, this could be one of a couple different models. I am thinking of buying at Costco Roadshow. Costco has separate containers on site with the roadshow. I just bought the it is I am trying to decide between the and They seem identical. Can you tell me if they are different at all? If so, which one is better?
Bill, for all intents and purposes they are the same blender. The is put in a C-Series chassis. The containers that come with both are identical, though the recipe books are slightly different. The difference in price may make one more appealing than the other to someone, though.
I cracked my 2 month old 64oz low profile container trying to pulse frozen whole tomatoes. Thankfully it is still under warranty, but will take up to 2 weeks to ship a new one.
We use the blender twice a day, so 2 weeks is killing us. Do you know if the container fit on a base? Jake, yes, the container will work on the Pro base. I would rather have another Vitamix container. I am wondering where the Vitamix fits into your matrix? It is a C-series product, but the Vitamix specs imply it has the newer 2. Martin, it is most-likely because of its aesthetics. Put simply, it looks more like a C-Series model. There are other models in the series with similar motors, so it is not stand-alone in this regard.
But I certainly understand why you would ask this question. Anyway, would appreciate clarification on whether the old and new jars could be swapped.
Matt, no retrofitting of motor bases is done during the refurbishing of any Vitamix models. The two caveats to this are 1 as of today the G-Series containers are not sold separately, and 2 the G-Series blenders are built with a. In my personal experience the C-Series blenders are fully capable of yielding excellent results with a G-Series container.
Can you help me with this? Jenni, the standard ounce or any other Vitamix container will work just fine on your Vitamix, including the newer ones. I just received a new reconditioned Vitamix for Christmas. Obviously, something is wrong. Do you recommend that I return it to the seller or should I contact Vitamix Customer Service and see if they will replace the motor?
During the first 30 days of ownership I usually recommend not using warranty service, if only because you should not have to deal with any issues at all as an owner of a brand new machine. If you elect to contact Vitamix regarding the issue, however, they will be more than happy to take care of you. It has a 4-position speed switch and a separate toggle switch with forward stays up off stays midway and reverse temporary down.
Any detail you can give me will help me decide if I need to consider investing in a new machine. Nick, I have never owned a so cannot speak with absolute certainty on this, but 24, is the most commonly referred-to max RPM on this model. While very strong in its time, the power of the is in line with common household blenders today. Your blending regiment would determine this. This may be something to consider as well.
Feel free to email me directly for details. If you are purchasing a new Vitamix model, you will be required to do so via the Vitamix. These models are every bit as nice as the ones discussed on this site, but have been renamed. For instance, the Total Nutrition Center model sold in Canada is the equivalent to the sold in the U. The only way for a Canadian customer to get a Certified Reconditioned model is to have a U.
If this applies to you, contact me for more details on how to arrange for one of these models. Really thank you for your dedication it is so generous from you to provide us some good insight so we can make the right decison of wich model suits us better. Much appreciate it. Im new at this and my main goal is juicing vedgetables smoothies fruits and soups.
I Really dont know wich one would be best. I dont want the more expensive one but i still want one that has a good quality and will provide with what im looking for. Alexandra, thanks for your nice words about the site. All Vitamix models are excellent options for whole fruit and vegetable juicing, smoothies, and soups.
For these particular functions, I could not specify one model being better than the next. Given that price appears to be an important factor for you, the less-expensive models are where I would steer you, including the entire line of Certified Reconditioned models. Thank you for taking so much time to post this information and answer all the questions.
I am getting lost in all of it! I live alone in a tiny duplex apartment with a small kitchen and limited counter space. I want to be able to mostly do juices, smoothies, hot soups, pesto, nut butters, and hummus. Can you tell me what model would be the best one for me?
I think I like the smaller containers so was looking at the with the compact container. Thank you so much! For those particular functions, any model in the entire line will be an excellent option. The differences between most of them are generally size and pre-programmed capabilities. I love mine. If space is an additional consideration of yours then the ounce compact container is a great choice as well. Some people really like the combination of a large ounce container along with the small ounce, but that requires either an additional container purchase or the purchase of a package that already includes both containers.
This means additional expense of course. They will all take very good care of you. The model, both with the standard ounce container as well as the ounce container, can both be found on the Vitamix website.
What is the best most reliable model for smoothies especially using ice. Also I need something that will liquefy as much as possible the fruits and veggies I blend?? Matthew, all Vitamix models will be virtually indistinguishable for this function. If this is your main priority, you might want to consider purchasing on price, alone. Also, consider the Certified Reconditioned models for even more substantial savings. More high-liquid content fruits will of course yield a more liquid consistency.
Blenders are not juice extractors. However, with the right combination of ingredients, plus perhaps the implementation of a nutmilk or filtration bag, you can achieve juice-like consistencies fairly easily. Hello and thank you for this informative site to help break down the confusion when choosing a Vitamix. What I am hung up on is the containers. I am a bit torn between whether the taller 64oz or the shorter wider 64 oz is going to work better for my needs. I know I would get somewhat frustrated if it is difficult to scrape contents out of the tall version, but if I want to be able to make small amounts of something it sounds like the original 64oz is a better option?
Or is this really a negligible thing to worry about? I would like to have at least one smaller container, perhaps that will help make my decision on what package to get overall. What is the design of the 32oz and 48 oz wet containers? Are they also skinny like the traditional 64oz? If I was to get one smaller container to accompany a 64oz would it be better to get the 32oz.
I wonder if there would be much need to have a 48oz and a 64oz? Audrey, for making small amounts in either of the two ounce container designs, the difference is fairly negligible, although the taller container would technically perform slightly better in this regard.
For amounts 8 to 10 ounces and higher they will perform nearly identically. If you wanted to add a smaller container to your package specifically for smaller recipes, I would recommend the ounce container over the ounce. The reason for this is the ounce is the same width at its base as the taller ounce container.
The ounce container is narrower at its base, however. This makes in even more conducive for effective blending of very small recipes. With a ounce container and either of the ounce containers, I foresee very little reason to need a ounce as well. I am having a hard time choosing between the and the Pro reconditioned models. What are the real differences. I have read some statements that the pro had a sensing feature that adjusts the blend based on load.
Does it really do programs better than the and give better results? I had gotten some feedback from the Vitamix customer service that programs are not really neccesarry, but I thought they would be nice especially for my kids. What are your thoughts? When is the best time to buy reconditioned units?
A vitamix rep told me after the holidays they tend to have a lot of units. Will you see temporary price reductions after Christmas or is now the cheapest time to buy? Goose, The Pro is built with sensors that signal the motor to automatically adjust for specific optimal blending speeds depending on resistance to load.
This is performed at the highest speeds. For example, if you were making a smoothie with frozen fruit and chose manual Speed 8, it is possible that the sensors would engage the motor at its maximum speed for the sake of efficiency.
It is unlikely you would ever notice this effect. The sensors do not override manual settings that are clearly intended by the user. If you were blending intentionally on Speed 4, for example, the blender would not ramp up to High on its own. Equally amazing results can be obtained by any user who operates any blender model properly. Kids may find preprogrammed settings easy and fun to use. Of course, blending manually can also be enjoyable, too.
The biggest sale Vitamix has had to date on reconditioned models ended in November. I am not sure if another will be forthcoming prior to the end of the year, but they have appeared 2 to 3 times a year for at least a month at a time for the past few years.
I never receive much forewarning about the sales but try to make such information available as soon as I get it. I am confused which model to get. I do small amounts of meat and vegetable for every meal. So i need a small canister. Which model would you suggest. I would also,like the variable speed and maybe pulse. Thanks deb. Deb, the only models that come with an actual Pulse lever are the Professional Series , Vitamix , and the Next Generation machines.
Keep in mind, though, that any Vitamix model can pulse whether or not it has the actual lever. This would accomplish the same thing. With this in mind, you might consider a with ounce container which would give you the smaller container and the ability to pulse, albeit without an actual lever.
I have found your website and videos enjoyable and informative. You provide a great service to health-conscious consumers interested in high-speed blenders. I, of course, am one of those consumers.
I feel confident and am familiar with the various Vitamix models and offerings. I also am well aware of my needs. I have narrowed my choices to two blenders: the in platinum with the extra 48 oz container and the Pro in stainless. I like the pre-set options and the pulse functions of both machines. I have a small kitchen and my house is on a small scale.
I am concerned about the having a massive look in my small kitchen. And, naturally, I also have concerns with price. An additional concern is that I will probably not use the tall 64 oz container that is included with the Can you help? What are your thoughts concerning my quandary? WB, thanks for the kind words about the site. To be blunt, both models will probably look big in a very small kitchen.
The motor bases of both are very similar in overall size. This, of course, is a recommendation taking cost out of the equation. Only you can decide if the difference in price in these two models outweighs the practicality of the containers that come with the respective models. Thank you for your timely and thoughtful response! I took a look at the video, and I see what you meant regarding the sizes of the two blenders.
If I make this purchase, then, it will not be based upon design and aesthetics! Additionally I realized that I will need to purchase a smaller container with the as well. Although I can see utilizing the 64 oz Pro container from time to time. As I would be able to store it on the machine under my cabinets, and would find it easier to prepare large quantity batches in it than in the tall carafe that comes with the The is noticeably quieter and that is important to me.
Is it worth it simply for the aforementioned conveniences? WB, this is really what makes decisions like these personal. Myself, I can distinguish a slight noise variation in the models, and the decibel measurements certainly suggest one.
You, however, seem to be able to distinguish them easily, and that should not be discounted, especially if it is an important consideration for you. Do you best to assign a monetary value to those differences, weigh their importance, and then see how they compare to the actual differences in prices.
Best of luck. BD I would like to purchase a Vitamix for Christmas. Is it safe to buy at this time? Guess what? The specks were coming from the refrigerator water dispenser and it also came from the kitchen faucet aerator end washer which is black and becomes deteriorated over time.
So you need to check these other possibilities before blaming your Vitamix Blender Canister. I think this information need to go to the Vitamix engineers for consideration and review because it is more likely the cause. The user can check this for themselves. Just briskly draw a clear glass of water from the spigot in the kitchen and inspect the water.
If you have a refrigerator with a dispenser do the same thing. Thanks again, Russ. Anyone performing her or his own test should definitely take proper precautions to ensure that perfectly clear water is used for testing. Russ, I have the black specks issue with two of my Vitamix containers and I have to say it is not the water source!! I took a photo of water from my tap in a white bowl and there were no black specks in it!
Then I ran that water through my Vitamix and when I poured the water back into the white bowl there were lots of black specks in the water!! It is definitely a problem with some of the jugs and I would love to know just what it is before I can happily use my Vitamix again!!
The only place I can think of where these black specks are coming from would have to be the cartridge bearing seal. The seal is black on most bearings of this type. You can see the bearing itself from the bottom side of the canister and the seal to the bearing being black in color.
I would be curious to know if someone were to continue using theirs, with just water, will they continue to see these black specks. If they do, eventually the bearing will be compromised by water and freeze up eventually after making a horrendous noise. There can be no other place or reason for it. It would help Vitamix determine the problem if someone would do this. The specks may be only temporary. I purchased the smaller container so I have two containers with my The only other possibility I can think of would be the lid itself.
Try it with the lid off and only water. Russ, thanks for the insight. From what I have gathered Vitamix is aware of the cause and location of the problem. They prefer I not elaborate on it at this time but the lid is not the culprit.
Your personal experience with not being able to detect black specks is not too dissimilar from mine, however. Hopefully they will release their statement shortly. I have done a huge amount of research for a couple of months on blenders. It is now Jan I have seen hundreds of comments on the black flecks.
Vitamix says it is Teflon and safe to ingest in the quantities that is coming off their product. I am well over a half century old and growing up we all knew that ingesting Teflon was bad. I was so disappointed to read what Vitamix said because I really wanted to buy the I hope they fix this soon.
I want to buy a Vitamix to use it in a raw restaurant, so is for industrial use, not domestic What you recommend me of all models taking into account the fact that being from Romania, electrical standards are European type Also, are you so kind to tell me where from to order it for deliver me directly to Romania Thank you so much. I need a suggestion for a vitamix. I did see one on QVC but there are so many models to choose from. Mary, all the Vitamixes discussed on this site are for home use.
You would move up in model from there depending on her needs. Hi BD Thank you for all your work into this complicated decision! Good luck with the decision and let me know if I can answer any other questions. I have heard the Pro is quieter and I like the fact is is shorter and looks a bit nicer, but can you add a taller container on it if you need to? But are there any other major differences between the two models?
Thank you very much. Katherine, you could certainly use any container made for home use on the Pro Although there would be some very specific instances in which a taller, more narrow container might make blending smaller volumes easier, in general, the differences are negligible. A better option for blending very small recipe volumes would be the ounce wet-blade container.
Both machines will perform near-identically for the majority of your functions. An observation: I have a Prep 3 upgrade from my old and which performs identically and a , both purchased new at ridiculously good prices. I really like my because of its bells and whistles, e. However, there are two features that I consider limitations. The first, which you cite, is that it requires a larger minimum volume in order to process effectively. The second for me limitation is that Variable 1 on the G-Series machines is considerably faster than its equivalent on Preps, s, etc.
This translates to a higher likelihood of splashing at the lowest speed and less control for chopping and adding ingredients. Karen, thanks for sharing your input here on the site. Hopefully others making similar buying decisions will find it useful. Congratulations, too, on finding great deals on your Vitamixes. Happy blending! Hi, so much information! Vitamix Switzerland. Thanks for the very detailed reviews. You certainly know your stuff and thank you for sharing it all with us.
It is making us feel much better about getting a Vitamix. It seems like they can, but what is the difference between the and the when it comes to soups? Is that just a matter of how much time you have it on high? What makes the additional cost worth it?
Ben, thanks for the nice words about the site. Yes, the will heat soups. Depending on the starting temperatures of your ingredients, anywhere from 4 to 7 minutes on High is usually what it will take.
The Next Gens also have a 2. The Pro in particular also has some pre-programmed setting which many customers enjoy for their convenience. The aforementioned design difference can have an effect on how long a particular blending task may take in isolated instances. I know from one of your reply to other that Pro is essentially in a CIA package. I also know from your comparison list that TNC has the same motor as So apart from the different cookbook it comes from and other aesthetic differences color , what are the differences in their performances, noise level, durability…?
What are your thoughts on this dilemma? Do you know how old is Pro and TNC when was it first came out? Do you think a more quite blending, pulse dial and extra. I hardly chop anything that needs chopper. I will do my best to tackle your questions in order. The performances, noise levels, and durability of both of these models is identical.
They are the very same blender, built on the very same platform with the very same parts. The only difference is the model name stamped on the front of the motor base housing. You would still be entitled to free shipping to Canada buying directly from Vitamix by using my authorized affiliate code, which is The TNC model name predates the but, again, this is essentially a non-issue as both blender models will be newly constructed with identical parts.
However, Vitamix will still honor the warranty for the full term. Buying directly from Vitamix entitles you to their day no-risk return policy. Your final question is definitely more customer-specific. My blending needs might not be the same as yours. Personally, the noise-level differences in all of these models are relatively negligible. As well, you can pulse with any Vitamix model, not just the ones with a Pulse lever.
This lever is very popular with many customers, though. The extra horsepower is somewhat negligible as well but there could be some peace of mind associate with knowing you have the strongest Vitamix motor out there.
But, ultimately, only you can put a price on how much these extra features will potentially be worth to you. I finally purchased Professional Series and very happy with its performance. I just wanted to share the reasoning behind my purchased because it might help others making theirs. I also would like to thank you for helping me making the decision. If I was willing to fork out a good chunk of money towards a blender, adding a bit more will get me the best.
I knew it will last years and years and it is a wonderful investment for our health. The shorter and wider container won my heart. Kitchen faucet is kind of shallow so this height was perfect. The extra power on the motor and longer blades were what sealed the deal for me to purchase this G-series. Noise-level is very loud when the variable is on But It is to be expected from such a powerful motor. Maple, congratulations on your Pro and thank you very much for sharing everything that went into your buying decision.
Do you experience this? What do you think of this issue? Apperently Vitamix ackowledges it and sent replacement to customer who complaint…. It is not a common issue at this time but is certainly something which I will continue to monitor. My advice to anyone concerned over this is to perform his or her own test.
All Vitamix machines come with a day no-risk money-back guarantee. And, if the issue is discovered after the warranty has expired, the containers, like the blenders, themselves, are guaranteed for 7 years 5 with certain models.
At this time I am permitted to tell you that they are definitely aware of the issue and plan on releasing a formal statement on the matter in approximately 2 weeks. Thank you, Jonathan, for the update. I really appreciate it. I look forward to seeing the formal statement. Hi BD, after a long process of choosing the right one, I chose the pro Then by chance I hesrd about these black particles in some of them. And the covering policy of Vitamix too.
Robert, I completely understand your concerns as well as your stance on the actions the manufacturer should adopt. Subsequent to the post you read on the site in which I indicated they would issue a statement on the matter, Vitamix did, in fact, acknowledge awareness of the issue and also stated that they would take measures to address it.
This was in December To date April they have not made public any concrete plans to alter the design nor manufacturing process of the components of the blade assembly which are the source of the issue. They are continuing to replace containers as often as necessary for any and all customers who experience the black speck issue, however, though here is no guarantee that the replacement containers will be free of the issue, themselves.
I continue to give the company the benefit of the doubt that a satisfactory remedy is imminent and wish I had more concrete information for you at this time. As soon as any changes to the company policy or pending remedy are adopted, though, I will be sure to update my site immediately. Gracy, the two primary differences between these two models are the containers that come with the blender, and the duration of the warranty coverage. The Aspire comes with a ounce BPA-free container.
A new TNC model has a 7-year warranty. It will be 5 years on the Aspire. The user interface, strength of motor, and quality of construction are identical for both models. This is a question that I wanted to ask, too, but I do not understand your answer. You say that the Aspire comes with a ounce container, while the TNC comes with a 4-ounce container. That sounds tiny! Is this a typo? Yes, that was a typo. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
The TNC comes with the standard ounce container. Tara, there is not any one Vitamix model that will be better than another in terms of the ultimate smoothness of your ingredients. This is largely a byproduct of how long you allow your recipe to blend. All models will do an excellent job of producing super-smooth results. If you intend to blend for extra-long durations and want to ensure your smoothies remain relatively cool, I advise you to start with a fair amount of frozen ingredients to keep temperatures down.
If this is your sole or primary concern regarding which model to select, you will be just fine with the lowest priced model as prices in Australia are very high. Vitamix will not honor the warranty on their residential models if it is determined that an issue with one was caused in a commercial setting. Best of luck to you. Jayshree, if I understand your question, the most comparable model to the Vitamix model would be the Professional Series What is the difference between the Pro and the ?
It looks like just the color selection and the books. If this is the case, what is in each book? Love your insight into this confusing issue! Reba, you have pinpointed the differences.
Each container is clear so you can conveniently see when the desired consistency has been reached. The one down side with using a clear container is that the plastic may scratch and become cloudy over time. None of the containers are dishwasher safe. The ounce container with the C-Series blenders stands The ounce Compact Container stands The ounce container that comes with the Super and Deluxe packages stands 9.
With the , the newly-designed ounce container stands Functionally, the low-profile design of the container is superior to the C-Series containers. It allows for more stabilization on the motor base while blending. This is because the weight distribution is wider and therefore leaves less probability for tipping or rocking due to height. Vitamix Blade — Vitamix places laser-cut, stainless-steel hammermill blades in all of its containers.
The size and type of container determine exactly which blade will be used. The ounce container comes with four models and the model, the ounce comes in the Compact Container and the ounce with the Deluxe package.
All use a 3-inch blade. The shorter, wider container used with the model comes with a newly designed 4-inch blade. Each different blade ensures a consistent blend or chop every time.
Vitamix Lid — Vitamix lids are superior to other high-power blender lids in that they secure better and are easier to clean. Each spill-proof, rubber Vitamix lid comes with a removable, BPA-free plastic plug for easily and safely adding ingredients while the machine is running.
The lid hole acts as a great ventilator for steam and heat when preparing soups. As a dual-function tool, the plastic plug doubles as a small measuring cup for liquid ingredients, marked at 1 and 2 oz. The lid follows the same basic design but has been widened to accommodate the new, wider pitcher. The redesign also includes enhanced tabs on the lid.
None of the lid components from any of the benders should be placed in the dishwasher. Vitamix Tamper — Vitamix includes tampers with all their blenders to assist with blending thicker, denser ingredients such as peanut butter. They also help push food down that toward the blades that may be lodged in the container and break up air pockets.
Each container comes with a tamper fitted to its size. The ounce containers come with a standard sized tamper and all other shorter containers, including the Vitamix , come with a mini-tamper which prevents it from hitting the blades. None of the BPA-free tampers should be placed in the dishwasher.
Or more tasty. The upside here is that you essentially get a ice cream maker with your blender. Both the and have an ice cream preset, where the does not.
This preset is more handy than some of the other presets, as users may have a tendency to over-blend when making ice cream. It can also be tricky when making ice cream in large batches due to the slow motor speed required. So, the preset function takes all the guess work out of that and whips up a frozen, delectable treat with no effort on your part. Just throw frozen ingredients in the machine and turn the knob to the frozen desserts preset. The reason why Vitamix ice cream making is ideal is because processing is so fast there is no time for melting, so the mixture essentially refreezes itself.
All in all, the ice cream preset is a great function to have. The only downside is that they contain pulp. The upside to using a blender to make juice is that it will give you more liquid than if using a juicer.
In fact, soft fruits and veggies end up in the compost container of a juicer and not in your juice, even when processed on low speed with a juicer. Juicers are made for harder vegetables, such as carrots, celery and beets. The puree function on the Vitamix can be used for making juices, everything will turn into a pourable mixture for you without any effort on your part. But, pureeing with any Vitamix is easy because you can see the consistency through the transparent plastic container.
For this reason, the puree function may become dormant over time, rendering it useless. Soups — Another highly recommended use of the Vitamix is to make soups. Once you use a Vitamix to make soup, you will never go back to a pot on the stove again. If any pre-cooking is required, such as broccoli, onions, garlic, etc.
Soups can be made in all of the machines, although only the and have soup presets. Once all ingredients are put into the container, it takes about five minutes for your soup to be ready remove the lid beforehand to vent. When using the preset, just turn the knob and walk away. The machine will stop when finished. If not using a preset, stand with your blender on high until there is steam billowing out of the lid remove the plug at around two minutes to begin venting.
The Vitamix can bring ingredients to boiling in minutes because the blade speed builds a friction heat. Using the drip-proof spout, pour your soupstraight from the container to serving bowls. Grinding Grains — Grinding grains is easily done with all Vitamix blenders simply because they are very powerful machines.
Very hard items like grains will pit and scratch the inside of the container near the blades. This will scar the container to create a cloudy appearance, as well as create scratches that make the container more likely to hold smells. Grinding is recommended for any hard, dry food such as coffee beans, beans, lentils, oats, rice, wheat berries, seeds and nuts. Chopping — Whether doing wet and dry chopping, Vitamix has you covered. Each machine is different in the amount of creative control you have when doing chopping, which is one thing that you want to consider when purchasing.
Using the , you can definitely control the size of chop you achieve using the variable control dial. The only limitation is not having a pulse function, which is super handy when going for a precise result. With the and , you have the most creative control given the combination of a pulse function and variable controls. What sets the apart from the is its more powerful motor.
Other high-power blenders on the market will mix all ingredients in the container from start to finish. Not so with the Vitamix. You must blend the wet ingredients first, then pour in a mixing bowl overtop the mixed dry ingredients. Followed by mixing thoroughly with a spoon or hand mixer. This two-part process should be followed when creating doughs or batters that require leavening ingredients or flours. Smoothies — You will get a premium quality smoothie with any of these models.
As one of the leading high-power blenders on the market, Vitamix designs all blenders with the ability to quickly puree hard and soft ingredients into a smooth, drinkable mixture.
The difference between these three machines lies in whether you wish to use presets.
