Blender tips

Quick tips

•In order to produce a smoother texture, blend with CRUSh ICE if you’re making beverages using ice.

•Smaller ice cubes can be chopped or crushed faster than large ones.

•Add food to this glass Blender pitcher in larger quantities than you would with other blenders – you can add 2 to 3 cups (475 to 710 ml) at a time, and use accessory jar for smaller portions.

•For many ingredient mixtures, start the blending process at STIR to thoroughly combine the ingredients. Then increase to a higher speed, if necessary.

•Be sure to keep lid on pitcher or accessory jar while blending.

•If desired, remove center ingredient cup or drizzle cap of the pitcher or accessory jar lid to add liquids or ice cubes while the Blender is operating on STIR, ChOP or MIx speeds.

•When operating at higher speeds with a full pitcher or accessory jar or with hot contents, stop the Blender and then add ingredients.

•Stop the Blender before using utensils in the pitcher or accessory jar. Use a rubber spatula to mix ingredients only when the Blender is OFF. To avoid damaging the utensil or blender blades, do not use any utensil, including spatulas, in the pitcher or accessory jar while the motor is running.

•Cool hot foods, if possible, before blending. Begin blending warm foods on STIR. Increase to higher speed, if necessary.

•Remove center ingredient cup or drizzle cap when blending hot liquids and operate only on STIR. Do not place bare hand on lid when processing hot liquids.

•Stop and check the consistency of foods after a few seconds to avoid over-processing.

How to ...

Reconstitute frozen juice: For a 6 oz. (175 ml) can of orange juice concentrate, combine the juice and correct amount of water in the pitcher. Cover and blend at MIx until thoroughly combined, about 10 to 15 seconds.

For a 12 oz. (355 ml) can, combine the juice and 1 can of water in the pitcher. Cover and blend on MIx until thoroughly combined, about 20 to 30 seconds. Stir in remaining 2 cans of water.

Dissolve flavored gelatin: Pour boiling water into the pitcher or accessory jar; add gelatin. Remove center ingredient cup and blend on STIR until gelatin is dissolved, about 10 to 30 seconds. Add other ingredients.

Make cookie and graham cracker crumbs: Break larger cookies into pieces about 1½ inches (3.75 cm) in diameter. Use smaller cookies as-is. Place in pitcher or accessory jar. In PULSE MODE, cover and blend on ChOP, pulsing a few times, about 3 seconds each time, until desired consistency is reached. Use the crumbs to make a quick topping for frozen yogurt, pudding, or a fruit compote.

To make finer crumbs for pie and dessert crusts, break graham crackers or cookies into pieces about 1½ inches (3.75 cm) in diameter and place in the pitcher or accessory jar. In PULSE MODE, cover and blend on LIQUEFY, pulsing a few times until desired consistency is reached, about 20 to 30 seconds.

Make cracker crumbs: Follow procedure for cookies. Use as a topping or as an ingredient in main dish casseroles and vegetable dishes.

Make bread crumbs: Tear bread into pieces about 1½ inches (3.75 cm) in diameter. Follow procedure for cookies. Use as a topping or as an ingredient in main dish casseroles and vegetable dishes.

KSB755, KSB655 specifications

KitchenAid has long been a trusted name in the kitchen appliance industry, and its blenders are no exception. The KitchenAid KSB655 and KSB755 models are two standout offerings that showcase the brand's commitment to quality, performance, and style.

The KitchenAid KSB655, known as the KSB655CA Classic Blender, is designed for everyday use while delivering superior blending performance. Its powerful 550-watt motor can handle everything from soft fruits to tough vegetables, ensuring that you can create smoothies, soups, and sauces with ease. One of the main features of the KSB655 is its Intelli-Speed Motor Control, which automatically detects the thickness of the ingredients being blended and adjusts the speed accordingly. This technology ensures optimal blending performance, regardless of the ingredients.

The KSB655 also boasts a patented diamond blending system, which features a unique blade and pitcher design that creates a vortex, pulling ingredients down into the blades for thorough mixing. With a 56-ounce BPA-free pitcher, you can prepare large batches for meal prep or entertaining. The blender also has a range of speed settings, providing versatility for various recipes. Additionally, its soft-start feature allows for a gradual ramp-up of speed, reducing splatter and ensuring that all ingredients are seamlessly incorporated.

On the other hand, the KitchenAid KSB755, also known as the KSB755OB, offers an upgrade with its more powerful design and additional features. Like the KSB655, it includes the Intelli-Speed Motor Control and the diamond blending system for precision blending. However, the KSB755 is equipped with a robust 1.0 horsepower motor, allowing it to tackle even tougher ingredients with ease, making it an excellent choice for those who blend frequently or work with harder ingredients like nuts and ice.

The KSB755 also includes a 60-ounce pitcher, which is perfect for larger servings or batch processing. Its sleek design and vibrant color options add a stylish touch to any kitchen counter. Furthermore, the KSB755 model features a convenient one-touch "pulse" function, enabling users to achieve the desired texture for their recipes quickly.

Both models prioritize user-friendly operation with intuitive controls and easy-to-clean components. Their well-constructed design ensures durability, making them reliable companions in the kitchen. Whether you opt for the KitchenAid KSB655 or the KSB755, both blenders deliver a powerful performance that meets the needs of everyday culinary creation, from crafting morning smoothies to preparing sauces and soups with ease. With KitchenAid’s reputation for excellence behind them, these blenders are a reliable choice for anyone looking to elevate their blending experience.
