KNOWLEDGE
The ergonomics of the device is good. The dipping part has a silicone coating on the top, so the brush stays in place and does not slip. The dip part is removable. Silicone Buttons. The wire is coiled and in this position has a length of about 70 cm, but in the stretched position – more than two meters. Very easy to store, the cord stays compact and neat.
The immersion part ends with a bell with a wave-shaped edge. Apertures allow the food to move freely from the knives to the sides of the bowl and back. There are notches on the wall of the bell. The inside of the bell is closed by a “ceiling” with a silicone insert around the perimeter. To fix the “leg” it is necessary to put it on the device at the special badge and turn it. Removing in reverse, but hands should be dry so as not to slip on the stainless steel. And the model also has a whisk, a chopper, and a tall clear cup to work with. Convenient that all parts except the body can be washed in the dishwasher.
The blender comes with attachments for the immersion part, this is just the subject of our interest. Two of them are knives, plus an emulsifying and whipping nozzle. A special key is available to make the nozzles easy to remove.
DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL
The operating speed is infinitely adjustable. There is a regulator on top of the handle with divisions from 1 to 5, turn it to the desired value. Convenient that you can adjust it according to your own feeling – softer, softer. The power button is located on the handle. Motor only works by pushing. Turbo mode provides more intensive processing, its button also should be held.
Blender run time without stopping is 2 minutes, pause for rest for at least 5 minutes.
ATTACHMENTS
Grinder nozzle
This is a blade with four blades, one of which has a serrated edge. One blade turned slightly downwards, the other upwards. This means that the blender needs to be raised and lowered for the necessary amplitude at the beginning of work to fully cover all the products
We made a little sauce with sweet pepper, garlic and nuts. The pepper was deliberately cut into 4 pieces, and I must say that the device was a bit perplexed. For the first few moments the knives were just moving on top of the slices, but as soon as the liquid appeared, the sauce quickly began to acquire the desired homogeneous consistency. On the final stage we added nuts, but they were chopped coarser, so that small pieces get on the tooth. Our rating is “good.”. It wouldn’t be practical to make such a small amount in the blender’s chopper, but it’s perfect for larger quantities.
Emulsifying nozzle
Plate with hemispherical covered holes. We used it to make pancake batter, when you mix eggs, sugar-salt and flour at once, and after the mass is even, add butter and milk. At the end of the day, the attachment had to achieve a homogeneous mass by mixing eggs and flour. We decided not to help her, we just lowered it to the bottom and waited. You only had to wait a few seconds and it was ready! The product is flawless, not a single lump!
The meat mincer attachment
Double-blade blender with one blade up and one blade down. We chopped fish fillets and onion slices into meringues with the whisk attachment. The nozzle took about 40 seconds. At first, the blades chopped only the top bits, but then just brought the mass to an even state. During the process, the cutlet mass gathered under the bell, but when we took it out, it was also chopped, like the bulk.
Whipping attachment
The whisk attachment in the form of a round plate was used to whip whites for meringues. In 15-20 seconds we got solid, snow-white foam. Then we added powdered sugar and no more than a minute after the experiment began, we sent the cakes into the oven. It’s a great result.
OVERALL IMPRESSION
We set the speed to the maximum at once: this way the process is faster and more convincing. The trigger has to be constantly pressed hard, the button is sunk into the body, so the effort should be greater than usual. But a firm grip on the button guarantees protection from accidental activation and, as a consequence, from a possible injury: that’s German foresight! And at first your finger gets tired, it takes a few turns to get used to it.
The immersion part of the blender is one of the longest in our test, 21.5 cm – no problems with the choice of utensils. Due to the bell shape, liquids and emulsions can be whipped in small containers.
The blender has a big “dowry”, so you have to find a comfortable place for every thing in the kitchen. The bracket included in the kit is only able to accommodate the whisk and “foot”.
A good model to win the hearts of housewives. I liked the attachments, for keen cooks they will definitely not be superfluous.
The power button takes some getting used to.
