About the vacuum blender

Vacuum blending Vacuum storage

Before using the product

When you push the Vacuum Blend button, the unit levels the ingredients with a flash blend (once), decompresses the container interior up to a vacuum state, processes the food automatically, and stops.

When you push the Vacuum Storage button, the unit decompresses the container interior up to a vacuum state and stops automatically.

Traditional blenders allow a lot of air to mix in with the ingredients during blending, and for recipes where processing/blending is involved, such as smoothies*, food can become oxidized.

On the other hand, vacuum blenders can retard the process of oxidization by controlling incipient oxidization through vacuumization before blending the ingredients.

In addition, this blender can maintain the freshness of previously processed/blended food that has been vacuum stored, retarding oxidization, using its vacuum blending function. (However, such foods stored in a refrigerator should be consumed at the earliest possible opportunity because vacuum storage itself does not inhibit the growth of bacteria.)

* We refer to a smoothie as a drink made from the blending of fruit or vegetables—not from juicing.

To prevent failures

Potential foreign matter

sucked into the main body

Before using the product

If foreign matter is sucked into the main body, a failure may occur. Please use the product by complying with the following instructions.

When the container interior is decompressed, the air contained in the ingredients may come up as bubbles or the ingredients may bubble.

An amount less than the maximum amount (prescribed on p.12 and p.19) usually causes no problem. However, when bubbles are about to reach the cover, please push the Cancel button and stop the operation.

Please process ingredients blended halfway by using the blending function. (Please see p.16.)

Powdered items (roasted

soybean flour, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, protein, etc.)

Steam

Liquid material attached to

the cover, etc.

Air bubbles and bubbles from mixed ingredients

Please use the ingredients after being processed using the blending function or after being dissolved completely.

Please see p.22 for details.

Please use ingredients that have cooled down to at least below 40

C. (Otherwise, the

container may break.)

Ingredients that are prone to produce air bubbles or other bubbles

Ice cream, apples, etc., that contains a lot of air Milk, soy milk, dairy, etc., in which bubbles

are prone to swell

Please take care of each cover part every time after use and assemble the unit only after wiping off any moisture.

1. Please check the maximum amount for the container prescribed on p.12 and p.19, and use the unit only by complying with the capacity.

2. Please decant the liquid to the smoothie container so that bubbles are not produced.

Advice on processing

“I want to use powdered

ingredients (such as cocoa, roasted soybean flour, powdered sugar,

and protein).”

When you use these with the vacuum blending function, they should previously be mixed with liquid and dissolved completely in a separate container, and then, they should be processed within the same maximum amount as for milk or soymilk. (Please see p.12.)

* Please do not put materials mixed by shaking because that

may cause a failure due to the suction of bubbles.

Powdered ingredients that are hard to dissolve completely should be blended in a separate container after being processed or should be processed using the blending function (p.16).

Use of the vacuum blending function may cause a failure because lumps of flour or flour remaining without being dissolved may burst in the container during decompression and suctioned into the main body with air.

“I want to make thick smoothies with no water.”

To prevent the unit from going idle liquids such as water are necessary, but when ingredients themselves provide enough moisture you can perform processing without any liquid.

Point to note: (1) Please use soft and moist ingredients as a base (those from

which you can make juice by simply crushing them with your hands).

Examples: Citrus fruit, tomatoes, watermelons, grapes, melons, kiwis, etc.

Ingredients not suitable as a base: Pineapples, apples, etc.

(2) Please use a base ingredient of more than half (in weight) the

total amount.

(3) Put the ingredients into the blender container in the order of base

ingredient, leafy vegetables, ingredients with little moisture, and ice or frozen fruit, etc.

“Can I use commercially produced milk-based

beverages as a liquid for

the recipe?”

Yes, you can. However, milk beverages should be processed at the same maximum

amount as milk or soy milk, as it is easy for such beverages to bubble up. (Please see p.12.)

“I want to use frozen fruit.”

“I want to make a frozen-style smoothie.”

“Can I make soups with it?”

You can use frozen fruit at a size smaller than 2 cm by 2 cm. (When it is frozen as a lump, please separate it into pieces.) Please never forget to put liquid such as water or other ingredients into the container at the beginning, with the frozen fruit last. If you put frozen fruit first, the blender may not operate due to the jamming of the cutter.

When you use boiled potatoes, you should add adequate liquid because sticking will occur during processing. Please add liquid at an amount more than 1.5 times (in weight) the solid. When the sticking is too strong, the blender may stop due to an error. In such case, please follow the procedures shown on pp.27–28.
