BLADES
About the Blades
The Vitamix machine comes standard with the wet blade container. The blade is identified by a “W” for wet. This blade is used for most of your recipes. Additional containers with wet or dry blades may be purchased separately.

DO NOT reach into container while machine is running.
Wet Blade Container: Designed for processing liquids including juice, frozen mixtures, sauces, soups, purees, batters, and for wet chopping. The wet blades can also grind grain and knead dough, but they are not quite as efficient as the dry blades in this application. If used for grinding, your container will mar and become cloudy; see instructions for dry container use.
Dry Blade Container: These blades are clearly marked “D” and are designed specifically for grinding dry materials such as grains, cereal and coffee and are also used for kneading bread dough. The dry blades can NOT process liquids efficiently. If you grind herbs on
a regular basis, you may wish to purchase a separate dry blade container and replace blades as needed.
