DO'S AND DON'TS

Do’s

•Use the Blend function for for drinks or cocktail making, emulsions such as mayonnaise, dressings, marinades and foods that require mixing until just combined, such as batters, also for pureeing soups and aerating liquids.

•Use a combination of the Blend and Ice/ Auto Pulse functions to suit the foods being processed.

•Use the Smoothie function to blend fruits, ice cream and yoghurts into thick smoothies, whips and milkshakes.

•Use the Ice/Auto Pulse function for foods that only require short bursts of power such as chopping nuts and crushing ice.

•Use the Ice/Auto Pulse function with short bursts of power, when blending drinks containing ice cubes or frozen fruit.

•Ensure all foods are cut into cubes (approx. 1 inch square) where appropriate to achieve an even result.

•Do not put more than 2 cups of warm ingredients into the Breville Die-Cast Hemisphere 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 opening in the lid if desired.

•Thick mixtures puree more effi ciently if the Breville Die-Cast Hemisphere Blender™ is ¼ to ½ full.

•When using several ingredients, place liquid ingredients in the blender jug before solid ingredients, unless specifi ed in the recipe. When blending thick or dry mixtures it may be necessary to stop the Breville Die Cast Hemisphere Blender™ and scrape down the sides of

the blender jug with a plastic or rubber spatula, once or twice during blending. Do not use metal utensils as they may damage the blades or blender.
