" ...  - the 2 Liter volume of the blender jar is double that of my Oster so I can do bigger batches of sauces and soups. ... (I like to do batch cooking.) ... My cashew cream now comes out smooth and creamy.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Still learning the ins and outs and trying new recipes but this thing really pulverizes the ingredients.  ...  "
comment
" ...  I would slice up all the hard stuff for it, like carrots, ginger root, etc. ... I also throw frozen things into my smoothies like frozen bananas, blueberries or strawberries. ... It is a beautiful and delicious thing. ... As a plus this blender will even heat up stuff you put in it from friction so you can make soups. ... I chose this model with the tall thin container because I saw tests that showed the shorter wider containers in all blenders caused a lot more turbulence and thus incorporated more air causing the smoothie texture to be a bit less palatable. ... I just store it with the container beside the motor.  ...  "

" ...  But now I've branched out into making my own almond milk and almond butter and I can not say enough about how easy it is to use this blender and then to clean it.  ...  "
