Hints and Tips on how to use the Breville Power Blender

Hints and Tips

•Do not put more than 2 cups of ingredients into the blender before blending commences. After the blending process has begun and the blades are turning you may slowly add another 1½ cups of ingredients through the inner measuring cup opening if desired.

•Do not blend a heavy mixture for more than 30 seconds at one time without switching off the blender. For normal blending tasks, such as mayonnaise, dressings, etc., do not operate for longer than 1 minute at one time without switching off the blender, stirring the ingredients then continuing operation.

•Do not place hot or boiling foods and/or liquids into the blender; allow to cool before placing into the blender jug.

•When using several ingredients, place liquid ingredients in the blender jug first unless specified in the recipe to do otherwise.

•When blending thick or dry mixtures it may be necessary to stop the blender and scrape down the sides of the jug, once or twice, during blending.

•The blender will not knead dough or mash potatoes.

•The blender is not designed to chop/mince meat or extract juice from fruit and vegetables.

•Thick mixtures such as patés, puree more efficiently when the blender jug is ¼ to ½ full.

•Do not use the blender to store food.

•Do not overload the blender with more than the specified quantity of ingredients as doing so could cause the motor to stall. Turn the blender off by turning the speed selection dial to the off ‘0’ position, switch off at the power outlet and unplug the power cord. Remove a portion of the mixture from the blender jug before continuing.

•Do not operate the blender without the blender lid in position. To add additional ingredients whilst blending, remove the inner measuring cup and place or pour ingredients through the opening in the lid.

•Do not fill the blender jug above the 1500ml/1.5LITRE line. When the blender jug is filled at or near the 1500ml/1.5LITRE line, hold the blender lid in place to avoid displacement of the lid during operation.

•Do not use metal utensils as they may damage the blades or blender jug.

•Do not place any objects, other than food or liquid, into the blender whilst the motor is running.

•Do not remove the blender jug when the blender is operating. Always ensure the speed selection dial is turned to the off ‘0’ position, the appliance is switched off at the power outlet and the power cord is unplugged from the power outlet.

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 ICE (Pulse) for short bursts until a snowy textured ice is achieved. This will take approximately 15 seconds. When crushing ice, hold 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 a time can be crumbed. Stale bread will produce the best results.

Chopped nuts

Process ¾ cup of nuts at a time. Use the ICE (Pulse) setting as this will give more even chopping.

Drinks

Fill the blender jug 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 sufficiently fine for a percolator or for infusion, but not finely enough for dripolator or espresso machines. Process ½ cup coffee beans at a time.

Soups, sauces, 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.
