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 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 versus 1 cup
(235 mL) 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
while blending.
• If desired, remove centre ingredient cup
of pitcher lid to add liquids or ice cubes
while the Blender is operating at STIR ( ),
CHOP ( ), or MIX ( ) speeds.
• When operating at higher speeds with
a full pitcher or with hot contents, stop
the Blender and then add ingredients.
• Stop the Blender before using utensils
in the pitcher. Use a rubber spatula to mix
ingredients only when the Blender is “O”
(OFF). Never use any utensil, including
spatulas, in the pitcher while the motor
is running.
• Cool hot foods, if possible, before
blending. Begin blending warm foods
at STIR ( ). Increase to a higher speed,
if necessary.
• Remove centre ingredient cup when
blending hot liquids and operate only
on STIR ( ). Do not place bare
hand on pitcher lid when processing
hot liquids.
• Stop and check the consistency
of foods after a few seconds to
prevent over-processing.
How To ...
Reconstitute frozen juice: For a 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.

Drizzle Cap
This versatile cap fits into both the pitcher and Culinary blender jar lid and is used to drizzle
oils or other liquids while the Blender is in operation.
This Culinary blender jar complements
the Artisan 1.5 L glass pitcher. This small
Culinary blender jar performs better and
faster for smaller amounts, and processing
will result in a finer texture: such as baby
food, puréeing soups, fresh herbs, spices,
smoothies, bread crumbs, biscuits, and dips
(hummus, pesto, mayonnaise).
