Many have wondered the power of the Bosch Blender and what exactly could they blend with it.  Is it a worthwhile accessory?  Too many have had the counter blenders that never really blended properly and simply took up space on the counter.

The Bosch Blender is not your average counter blender.  You will be able to make wonderful smoothies, crushed ice, protein drinks, graham cracker crumbs, chop nuts, and much, much more!  Many have asked how it compares to the Vita Mix.  The Vita Mix is a great machine but it doesn't really blend the food well.  Thus, Vita Mix gives you a plunger to mash the food down to get to the bottom blender blades.  The Bosch blender genuinely swirls the mixture in the blender giving you a full mixing of your drink.  The Bosch blender does a great job blending/mixing your food. 

The biggest advice to be given for the Bosch Blender is starting the blender before you fill it with food or ice.  Usually what makes a blender break is cramming it full then turning the motor on.   Just as trying to run in water is difficult, cramming the food in the blender is forcing the blades to turn while the motor is immediately put at a high speed.  Best is to start the blender then, add the food products or ice.  Frozen fruit need to be chopped before putting it in the blender due to fruit being so fibrous.  Cutting the fruit in smaller chunks will prolong the life of your Bosch Blender.  It is a fabulous addition to your Bosch Kitchen Mixer and you will love the drinks you will be able to create.  See below our recipe for banana shakes!
