Having written about making juices and smoothies with a blender (read Juicer Recipe: How to Make Juice Without a Juicer Using Just a Blender?), I just have to write more about my favorite blender – VitaMix. I own a VitaMix Super 5200 (just got it recently for my birthday:)), and it is truly a SUPERB machine! OK, so it’s not cheap, but you know what they say – you get what you pay for – and it’s true! So if you have been thinking about getting a new versatile kitchen appliance and your birthday or Christmas is coming … don’t look any further – get yourself a Vita Mix!

Vitamix Features and Benefits

Versatile Machine. Vitamix can blend, cream, mash, puree, liquify, juice, knead and even cook. You see, Vitamix motor comes with front and reverse action. While the front action will work like in any other blender (just much more powerful), putting it in reverse causes it to heat up and cook whatever is in it. The Vitamix 5000 and 5200 models feature a dry blade that allows you to grind your own flour. Many people Vitamix as a juicer.

Which Vitamix Blender Should I Choose?

How is the VitaMix 5200 different from the Vitamix 4500? I have been researching different models of Vitamix, trying to decide which one to get. Here is the information that I found: —VitaMix TurboBlend 4500— is a high performance 2 speed blender with one wet blade and two-speed control (high and low). It carries a 5 year warranty. —VitaMix 5200– is a food processor with 1 wet blade, variable speed and 7 year warranty. —VitaMix Super 5200— This is the top of the line model, a powerful food processor with variable speed (for up to 35 food tasks), one wet blade, one dry blade, and 7 year warranty.

Juicer Recipes: How to Make Juice Without a Juicer Using a Blender?

Here is an unconventional way to prepare juice – juicing without the juicer, or…

Juicing with a blender!

I just recently received my new Vita-mix (for my birthday – I will not say how old I am, but I sure hope that Vitamix – and the delicious, natural foods that I will prepare with it – will help me look younger longer), and I decided to test it to prepare some juice. Juicing with a blender is certainly a good option that you can use if you don’t have a juicer – or even if you have one. Here are some instructions for you and a video. But first – before anybody asks, let’s briefly explain the difference between a juicer and a blender.

What is the difference between a juicer and a blender?

A juicer separates the liquid from the fiber. A blender is designed to liquefy food by chopping it up at high speeds. It doesn’t separate the juice from the pulp, so the result is a mushy liquid, that in some cases may not taste very good. A blender can be quite useful in tandem with a juicer. For example, bananas contain little juice, so juicing them would be hard, but they taste delicious when blended with many juices, for example pineapple juice, or green vegetable juice.

Making Juice With Vitamix Blender

Yes, you can make JUICE with your BLENDER! And although any blender might do the job, probably the best blender for making juices is Vitamix. That is because Vita Mix is a truly powerful blender that blends the fruits and veggies into super-tiny pieces. The Vita-Mix’s blades pulverize the skins, seeds and peels of whole foods to make them easily digestible. * Just put your fruits and vegetables in the blender, add a little bit of water (this is optional, but will make the blending faster) and turn it on. * Once the ingredients have been blended into a puree, you can drink it as is, or strain the puree with a cheese cloth or a cotton bag to separate the juice from the pulp. * The cleanup is much faster than with traditional juicer. * What is amazing, you may get more juice and less pulp than when using traditional juicer.
