Nice videos and nice family! I’ve been a Vita-Mix user for about 20 years now and love it. In fact, if I had a car, I’d probably apply to be a demonstrator myself.
A suggestion: break your eggs, one at a time, into a glass before adding to other ingredients; you just might get a bad one.

Ice Cream making can take some practice. You should not make more than what will reach the 4 cup line in any one batch.

You have to work with the proportion of frozen to liquid ingredients. This varies from recipe to recipe depending on the density of the frozen item - i.e. ice being more densely frozen than say a frozen blueberry.

I start with roughly an 80/20 mix of frozen to liquid ingredients.

Hello,

It is a patented tamper. It is designed with a wide ring at the top that is bigger than the hole in the lid which allows the tamper to enter the container but never reach the blades (when the lid is properly attached!).

With this tamper, I can push whole apples (stem, core and all) down into the blades and make apple sauce in seconds.

Recipe:
2 apples
Honey to taste
dash of cinnamon
blend on high!

I don’t get it.. how did that stick that you used to push the ingredients down not get pulverized into black plastic mush if the machine is so powerful? What does closing the lid down properly have to do with the stick not getting into the blades?

Thank you!

It’s funny that you should use the term “Stealth Health” because that is what I call it in my demonstrations!
