Cold Blending
Cold Blending Cold blending programs do not apply heat, and blend at different intervals throughout the countdown to break down frozen fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, oats, and more. Blend smoothies, crush ice for summer drinks, create frozen yogurt and small-batch sorbet. Note: The blender will not cool or freeze food items. For smoothies and frozen desserts use chilled and frozen ingredients and tamp often.
Hot Blending
Hot Blending Hot blending programs combine boiling and blending for optimal one-pitcher performance. Cook fresh ingredients, or blend and heat pre-cooked ingredients into soups, purées, baby food and more. Note: These programs apply a gentle-blending start, then add an intermittent quick-stir motion to agitate food contents throughout the cooking program. Minimum* Liquid Maximum* Hot Contents 1/4 cup / 2 oz / 60mL 48 oz / 1400 mL *Minimum and maximum content guidelines are recommendations.
