And the blender in the hierarchy of popular kitchen appliances is rightly designated one of the first places.

What criteria select the model of blender you should pay attention will be discussed below, freeing you from having to spend time looking for answers on the discussion forums.

Immersion blenders, stationary, combined All the existing model range, manufacturers offer today on the principle of action can be divided into two broad categories: blenders submersible and stationary.

Immersion blenders are a compact ergonomic motor unit enclosed in a metal or plastic case, which when performing the necessary operations is held in the hand. On the handle of the immersion part of the blender there are buttons of management of the program and the speed controller of the nozzle.

A set of nozzles included in set. For each type of operation – grinding, stirring, whisking, etc. has its own nozzle. The presence in the configuration of the nozzle-Corolla allows you to use the device as a mixer.

The manufacturing process takes place in special tanks, is also included in the package. In principle, all operations supported by blender can be run in any container of sufficient size are present on the farm! And I must say, sometimes this feature of immersion blenders is very helpful.

                  




Immersion blender

Undeniable advantages of the immersion blender is its portability and compactness, the ability to free up valuable kitchen space following completion of the necessary operations, the ability to adjust the consistency of food and the size of the crushing changing the duration of processing. Immersion blenders are very handy for cooking small portions and extremely easy to care for.

The main drawback of such models is the need to continuously hold in the hand in the process of whipping, mixing, grinding. In addition, in some models thus you have to constantly hold the button, which is pretty tiresome. Such models are poorly suited for crushing ice and nuts, not suitable for working with thick dough.

Compact immersion blender suitable power are very handy in cases when you want to quickly grind fruits and vegetables, boiled meat, to turn a small amount of raw meat in the stuffing, prepare the breadcrumbs make the sauce or puree.

Such models are convenient for fast preparation of soups, milk and fruit cocktail, smoothies, whipping cream in the presence of the nozzle of the Corolla.

In the minimum configuration is usually offered to the blender and capacity, which are placed recyclable products. In proportion to the price of the model extending its functions and equipment, which may include additional measuring cups of different volumes, numerous nozzles, measuring cups, etc.

Stationary blenders are are several different principle. The motor unit is in a plastic or metal casing, cover glass or plastic pitcher, set on a predetermined place for him.

In the lower part of the internal volume of the working surface is a knife or nozzle-mixer, which, depending on the model, can be made removable and fixed.

Numeric keypad or wheel control and program selection and speed located on the device. Capacity removable bowl with measuring divisions, in most cases, is 1-2 L.





Blender stationary

Because in the Cup there are dimensional division, spout and handle, the process dosed pouring ready mix is not a pipe. Stationary blenders, self-cleaning – ideal for Housewives, not fitted to exert any physical effort in the preparation of mixtures. This embodiment is ideal for preparing fruit and vegetable purees, batter, smoothies, soups-mashed potatoes (optional), whipping cream and cocktails grinding hard cheese, soft and hard fruits and vegetables, crackers, an ice pick and chopping nuts (optional), whipping proteins, etc. One of the benefits of choice with the use of stationary blender — price models, which, in comparison with the submersible counterparts is more affordable.

Shakers Simplest version of a stationary blender shaker often performs several simple functions – the mixing of cocktails, whisking egg whites, chopping soft ingredients.

Most of these devices support only 2 speed and equipped with small Cup volume of 1 L. the Majority of models of shakers (like almost all stationary models) supports the self-cleaning function.

Thus, to bring the equipment in perfect condition, it is sufficient to fill the bowl after a sufficient amount of warm water and activate the self-cleaning function.





A stationary blender shaker

Most models of shakers, in view of the low-power, grind only soft food. Efficiently grind the ice or the meat they can not.

Particularly noteworthy is the category of combined blenders, combining features of models of submersible and stationary type.

Combination blendersIndividual attention combined immersion blenders, which successfully compete with kitchen mini processor. Such multifunction models perfectly cope with functions of the mixer, a kneader, easily chopping ice, used as a grinder, and some can successfully replace a juicer.

Combined immersion blenders are equipped with a removable pulley that allows you to mix products in a deep dish.

The models combined blenders favorably with picking most of the submersible, and the more stationary models, and can include:

• whisk;
• nozzles for chopping and cutting;
• nozzle hook for kneading the dough;
• measuring Cup;
• container for products with cover;
• bowl chopper with the main knife;
• vacuum pump for rapid preservation of different product ingredients;
• the ice pick;
• supports for attachments and blender.

Since the motor part of the combined blenders located in the handle of the device – this option can be considered as a special case of the immersion blender with extended functionality.

The power of the blender Is one of the most important indicators of the model have a direct influence as on its cost and functionality and speed of execution of the desired operations. The higher the power, the more the solids amenable to grinding. Therefore, if you are determined to prepare not only smoothies, soups, purees or cocktails, but also to crush nuts, ice, grind coffee, sugar, hard cheese, your choice of models with a capacity of at least 500-600 watts . But for making baby food, easy mashed potatoes, smoothies, etc. will be enough models with power up to 500 watts. In the top technological segment, the championship surely hold model with a capacity of over 1000 watts, able to cope with the shredding of solid food ingredients.

The principles of choice of model power exactly the same as for a submersible and fixed blenders. In this regard, if you have any questions related to the choice of model on this crucial criterion, we recommend that before purchasing carefully examine the technical documentation (description) of the model of interest or to ask for help to the specialists of our store.

Speed Efficiency blender tasks depends not only on capacity but also on the speed of rotation of the knife. Most models of stationary blenders do not support smooth changes in the speed of rotation of the nozzle (the so-called “rheostat” blenders) and have a fixed number of speed (3, 6 ... up to 30). The change of speed required for processing the various ingredients and cooking different dishes. The change of speed in stationary models, as a rule, there is a rotary knob on the device, for immersion directly on the handle.

Most models support convenient option ”turbo mode”, providing maximum speed of rotation of the knife/nozzle when using the whole Arsenal of power. Work in a pulsed mode with periodic interruption of the process to control the degree of readiness of the processed product. This mode saves the resource of the motor, preventing it from overheating.

Some models of stationary blenders allow you to program the speed limit and manipulate other settings on the digital display, which, however, soon reflected in the price of the blender, rather than on its functionality and the quality of the final result.





Model with digital display

The more speeds supports blender, the wider food menu available for the owner, as some recipes do require meticulous precision of the cooking and mixing.

In the vast majority of cases 8-10 speeds is more than enough. Some models support variable speed depending on the force pressing the button, which in some cases is very convenient.

Content and functionality the Following criterion that determines the degree of comfort when working with the blender package and the number of supported functions. To a greater extent the dependence of the functionality of the configuration can be seen in submersible models we stock, as a rule, several attachments for different tasks.

So, for example, a nozzle for cutting food cubes completely solves the problem of preparation of any portions of salads and preparations for soups, nozzles stainless steel special shape will allow to cope with the chopping and rubbing, and the blades of the impeller with grinding products.

Indispensable in the household and the kneading and mashing.
 

As you can see, multifunctional blender in its capabilities do not inferior to stationary mini-food processor, are orders of magnitude superior to him on such an essential parameter as mobility, but significantly behind in power.

As for the lineup of stationary blenders here offer opportunities and accessories look more modest than their submersible counterparts. It is possible to change the main jar of small capacity grinder with his knife, which allows to process small batches of ingredients.

Some models are equipped with a nozzle with a knife, ice pick, some support is quite useful and rare feature spawarki. In the latter case, the entire technological cycle of preparation of soups – from slicing components before cooking is done in the bowl of a blender. Such models are a real find for lovers of soups.

From the manufacturer the Philips you can find models with the function of a double boiler, commonly used in the preparation of dietary dishes and dishes of baby food.

The materials of the Cup and the submersible One of the most common questions asked to our experts when choosing the model of immersion blenders: should prefer the model with the metal immersion part, or to complete the work will be enough of a blender with a plastic immersed element?

The answer is: plastic submersible part without problems cope with the mixing and grinding of various ingredients. However, even high-quality plastic is fairly brittle material, by orders of magnitude inferior in this respect to the metal. A second negative – staining plastic over time, the color of some often recyclable by-products (beet, carrot, etc.).

With careful use of plastic submersible parts within allowable loads this option allows you to save on the purchase – and this, of course, it is possible to consider advantage of this solution.

The bowl of the blender may be made of glass or plastic, and each of these options has its advantages and limitations. The advantage of plastic bowls – ease, the glass bowl will allow you to prepare hot soups that is quite risky in most models, with the Cup of plastic. Bowl volume may vary from 1 to 2 years, you should take into account that the difference between useful and total is, on average, 200-300 ml.





The classic version is a Cup of glass

Another disadvantage of plastic (as in the case of the immersion part) – loss over time the original color, which is absolutely not facing a glass bowl. Classic version – glass. However, blender with glass bowl slightly heavier, and is more expensive. As in the case of the other model parameters, the final choice of the materials of manufacture of the submersible and the bowl is for our customers.

Case material Case both immersed and stationary blender can be made of metal (aluminum, stainless steel) or plastic. The first option is more reliable and durable, but will cost a bit more. However, housing immersion blender, stainless steel is heavier than plastic, which will inevitably create a fairly noticeable problems in the process. Anti-slip rubber insert, rubber or soft touch plastic on the body will minimize the likelihood of its slipping from the hand.

Metal case stationary blender is one of the important conditions for the sustainability of his designs on any surface, and hence comfort. The heaviness of metal in this case with a vengeance kompensiruet minimizing such negative effect as jitter.

Additional stability is created by the rubber or rubber linings-suckers on the supporting legs of the model.

Models of blenders with built-in battery (cordless blenders) Some models may be equipped with a built-in battery of small capacity, providing Autonomous operation of the device for 20 minutes. This can be very convenient when going on nature as well as in the family with a small child, where the need for fast mixing of the ingredients may occur in the absence of external power. Unfortunately, at the current stage of technology development capacity blender with built-in battery not exceeding 300 watts.

Manufacturers the Choice of manufacturer is one of the cornerstones in the choice model. And one of the most important criteria to select for consideration of variants of models of different price segments – reviews on blenders end user.
