Tips for buying and maintaining the juice blender

Tips for buying and maintaining the juice blender.  The machine for blending fruits is the kitchen appliance that many people are interested in, especially during summer that there is the opportunity for you to use it more often than other seasons. To quench your thirst and compensate for the post-workout sweat, there will be no better drink than a delicious glass of smoothie. Therefore, many people have the questions about the tips for buying and maintaining the blender. Let’s clear all the doubts.

The multipurpose blender

This type of the multipurpose blender is suitable for the light general use. It looks similar to the blender for fruits. Therefore, there is some confusion between these two types of the blenders. But it is easily classified. The multi-purpose blender has a numerical intensity knob such as 1 2 3 4 with several blenders for different applications. The price is not very high compared to other types of the blenders. The power is 350-1,250 watts. This blender is good enough to blend fresh juices for healthy people who don’t like to drink cold smoothies. But it is not suitable for adding ice or blending frozen fruits. This will damage the blender blade and burn the motor.

The juice blender

It is the juice blender that is designed to blend fruits thoroughly. The blended raw materials will come out smoother and more homogenous than a multi-purpose blender. There is a knob to adjust the spinning speed finely. The blender blade can blend ice and frozen fruits into smoothies. Two important points that differ from the multi-purpose blender are: Most of the blenders will have a single blender jar. No other blender jars are given and the power of the blender will be higher than the power of the multipurpose blender. The standard for a good blender will have a power of 1,400 watts or more, the speed of which will be 20,000 cycles or more, Because of this reason, this type of the juice blender is alternately called “High Power Blender”

The food grinder

The food grinder looks very different from the two above. The blender jar is larger and the blades are longer than the other blenders. The food grinder is suitable for grinding meat and grinding food with high viscosity including making a lot of curry paste. The food grinders are not suitable for making drinks like shakes and smoothies at all. Even though the motor power is high enough to be able to blend, with different blades, the juices are not as fine as those specially designed for blending. It also allows the juice to spread throughout the blender jar and spill out onto the outside. Because the lid of the food grinder is not designed to have a rubber ball to prevent the liquid splashing at all.

Is wattage the most important to the juice blender?

The wattage is quite important to the rotation quality of the blender blades because the wattage for the juice blender also means the power of the motor of the juice blender. The higher the wattage, the greater the power of the motor. But using the high-wattage blender doesn’t mean that it will perform better than the lower wattage blender. However, the speed of rotation and the blade technology are equally important as well. If the rotation speed is high, the blade is suitable. This makes the smoothies better with more refinement.
