SOME THINGS
DON’T
AREN’T
TAMPER-PROOF
Depending on the recipe, you may need a little extra help getting ingredients
down to the blades of your Pitcher. Some specific moments that might call
for using your tamper include but are not limited to: large-batch recipes,
highly frozen ice cream recipes, nut butter recipes, and purees
with little to no added liquid (think hummus or bean dip).
HAVE A
TAMPER
TANTRUM
Using the tamper tool is easy. While your
machine is running, remove the lid cap and
insert the tamper through the opening.
Then, angle the tamper into each of the
4 corners of the Pitcher, pushing ingredients
toward the blades. For best results, fill
ingredients above the 24-ounce measure line.

FLOUR
POWER
Milling your own flour has never been easier—
thanks to the Ninja Chef™, it’s as simple as selecting
a pre-set program. In just a few seconds, you’ll
have deliciously fresh flour that tastes great and
is packed with the fiber, vitamins, and minerals
processed flours leave behind.
Choose 2 cups grain
for about 3 ½ cups flour.
Buckwheat
Wheat berries
Oats
Brown rice
White rice
Kamut
Choose Auto-iQ®
FLOUR/MILL.
Allow flour to cool before using.
Using almonds, cashews,
or coconut flakes?
Pulse ingredients on SPEED 1
until flour is yielded.
Sift after processing.
IF YOU DON’T USE IT, YOU’LL LOSE IT.
Only mill as much flour as you plan to use for any given recipe.
Freshly made flour does not keep long (unmilled whole grain kernels,
however, will keep at room temperature indefinitely).
