Vitamix 48oz Color Containers (All New) Blue, Yellow & Purple

AT LAST VITAMIX BRINGS A SPLASH OF COLOR TO HOUSEHOLD BLENDING

Compatible with all full-sized Vitamix machines. 5200 series, 7500, Pro 750, Explorian, Propel 510/750, Ascent and Venturist V1200.

Color, color and color! I have not been this excited about a new Vitamix product in quite a while. This is a long-time coming. Over the years I have seen Vitamix color containers in the commercial world and I hoped one day that Vitamix would bring this idea to the home consumer and at last they have!

Vitamix is introducing these amazing colors in the 48oz Self-Detect Wet Container and i’m going to give you guys some ideas on who and what they are best used for.


UNCOMMON BEST USES FOR VITAMIX COLOR CONTAINERS

Now here are some other uncommon uses for Vitamix color containers so check this out. Allergen-sensitive recipes. Food allergies affect a large population and a dedicated colored container for No-nuts or No-dairy for example would take the guesswork out of which container is a no no for certain recipes. Dog or pet treats. Homemade lotion. Homemade facial scrub. And having an extra colored container sitting on the counter adds a nice punch of color expression to your kitchen.


VITAMIX 48OZ WET SELF-DETECT COLOR CONTAINERS


PARTY PRESENTATION IDEAS FOR VITAMIX COLOR CONTAINERS.

You may dedicate the Vitamix yellow container for salsa. Create your salsa and set it on a platter surrounding it with orange, yellow and red peppers along with heirloom tomatoes to give it that summer look.

Now, you may dedicate the Vitamix blue container for cocktails, especially made with fruits. Set it on a platter with blueberries or dark berries representing the types of drinks you’ll be making in this container.

At your summer parties you may want to make some healthy whole veggie juices. I love beets so often I make smoothie recipes with beets and several different vegetables. The Vitamix purple container is perfect for such recipes.


DEDICATED VITAMIX COLOR CONTAINERS FOR PLANT-BASED MILKS

Lastly I want to touch on plant-based milks. I have been making a lot of plant-based milks on my channel recently, and you can use any one of these Vitamix color containers dedicated to plant based milks. For example almond milk. Even though you can sanitize these containers people allergic to dairy would prefer a dedicated container not used for dairy.


The Vitamix 48oz self-detect wet color containers are currently priced at $164.95 USD and $229.95 for Canada. A great gift for mom, dad and especially yourself.

Compatible with all full-sized Vitamix machines. 5200 series, 7500, Pro 750, Explorian, Propel 510/750, Ascent and Venturist V1200.

ALL NEW VITAMIX FOODCYLER ECO 5 (FIRST LOOK)

A Better, Bigger, Simpler Vitamix Foodcycler


Everyone needs a Foodcycler in their home whether it’s a Vitamix Foodcycler or any other brand. Food waste is a global issue. Having years of experience in the food industry I can attest to that. Either something is half-eaten or post food-prep there are so many food scraps left over that end up being put out to waste when they certainly could be recycled into something helpful like your garden compost.


INSIDE THE BOX OF THE VITAMIX FOODCYCLER ECO 5

Available in both the USA and Canada, included in the box with the Vitamix Foodcycler ECO 5 is a 5 liter food waste bucket with odor-blocking lid, carbon filter cartridge, carbon filter pellet packet, removable power cord (not shown), instruction booklet and information card. White and Slate colors will be available while White will be exclusive to Vitamix and select retailers. One note about the white color, depending on the lighting it looks more off-white or beige which can be a positive since bright white tends to show dirt very quickly. The Vitamix Foodcycler ECO-5 comes with a full 3-year warranty.


NEW MODEL FOODCYCLER ECO 5 VS. FOODCYCLER FC-50

The Vitamix Foodcycler ECO 5 has a nice modern look resembling a paper shredder or even a trash compactor which is very appropriate considering that it breaks down food. Unlike the older Foodcycler FC-50 the ECO 5 has an LED touchscreen in the front which makes it easier for many to reach and view the food cycling process if sitting on a counter.


TYPES OF FOOD WASTE THAT CAN BE RECYCLED IN THE FOODCYCLER

There are many food types that can be used to recycle in the Foodcycler ECO 5 but I recommend to check out the included owner’s manual.


FOODCYCLER ECO 5 HAS A LARGER CAPACITY FOOD WASTE BUCKET

If you’re a family of two then the Vitamix Foodcycler FC-50 with a 2.5 liter waste bucket capacity will be very suitable. For larger families or persons who do a great deal of food prep and composting then the Foodcycler ECO 5 with the 5 liter capacity waste bucket would be the best choice.


REMOVABLE POWER CORD

The rear of the Foodcycler ECO 5 contains a large slot for the removable power cord which also doubles as a storage slot for the power cord. One major gripe I have about the design of the ECO 5 is due to its weight of about 24LBS it’s difficult to lift for transport. I found using the power cord slot as a handle to be helpful but the ECO 5 needs two dedicated handles for easy transport.


PRICE AND AVAILABILITY

The Foodcycler ECO 5 is priced at $599.95 USD and $814.95 for Canada customers. Available starting 04/28/2023 on the Vitamix website. Here’s my direct links to check it out.

All New Vitamix Propel Series 510 and 750 Review

So let’s talk about the new Vitamix Propel machines. Who are they for? What do they do? And with the other existing Vitamix machines, why are they here?


This is how i view the new Vitamix Propel series machines. if the Vitamix 6300 (which is the same as the Vitamix Pro 500) and the Vitamix Pro 750 had a baby it would be….the Propel. I kid you not, the Propel is a combination of the Pro 500 and the Pro 750.


On the left is the Propel 750 and it comes with the 64oz wet container. On the right is the Propel 510 and it comes with the 48oz wet container they both come with their respective tampers shown and the Fresh Blends recipe book. The Propel 750 comes with a 7 year warranty while the Propel 510 comes with a 5 year warranty.


Now that the Vitamix Ascent exists Vitamix is now creating two distinct lines of the full-sized machines because currently the entire line of blenders is fragmented.


So let’s talk about noise. The elephant in the room. In my testing the Vitamix Pro 750 on the right had a decibel level of 80 peak while the Propel peaked at 87 db so it was louder. You can hear this in my YouTube video presentation of the Propel Series models. The Pro 750 on the right is clearly quieter due to the built-in sound dampening materials.


The Vitamix Propel Series machines are designed to take the place of the Classic and G-series blenders which will be eventually phasing out. They were created to join the Explorian in the Good, Better, Best category and are great for a person who has an older Vitamix and wants to upgrade to a more modern model without spending too much, but there are limitations to the Explorian and the Propel models.

If you want quieter operation, more heavy duty build quality, digital timer, touch controls and a digital readout panel then the Vitamix Ascent A3500 is the one to go for.

Check out my full YouTube video presentation which includes making the Starbucks Caramel Frappuccino (copycat) using the new Vitamix Propel Series 510. Watch HERE!

Vitamix Ascent A3500 Black Stainless Finish includes 48oz Stainless Steel Container

What do you get when you cross paths with the Vitamix ascent a3500 in black stainless finish with the vitamix 48oz stainless steel container? You get the ultimate combo. Stainless plus stainless all in one package. Just in time for Mother’s Day. Talk about an amazing gift!


Just for clarification this the 64oz container that normally comes with the Vitamix A3500. this is not included in the package. The package includes only the stainless steel container and the A3500 in Black Stainless Finish, and it’s kind of a celebration of bringing back the original VitaMix 3600 that included a stainless housing and a stainless container.  


Depending on what light hits it the finish can give off a slight bronze appearance. A very nice retro-vibe appeal. The Stainless Steel Container is 48oz in size which makes it perfect for large or smaller recipes.

NEW VITAMIX PACKAGING FOR THE VITAMIX ONE

THE ALL NEW VITAMIX ONE! VITAMIX CERTAINLY IS BECOMING THE APPLE OF THE BLENDING WORLD WITH THIS NEW BOX DESIGN AND RED COLOR SCHEME. IT’S VERY COOL! AND THAT 100 YOU SEE ON THE BOX MEANS VITAMIX IS CELEBRATING THEIR 100TH YEAR IN BUSINESS. 

ON THE BACK OF THE BOX YOU SEE A FULL LENGTH PICTURE OF THE VITAMIX ONE WITH THE FEATURES AND SOME RECIPE IDEAS. 


IN THE BOX WITH THE VITAMIX ONE YOU GET THE 32OZ CONTAINER, MINI TAMPER, INSTRUCTION BOOKLET (YOU GUYS PLEASE READ YOUR MANUAL CUZ I KNOW YOU GUYS WILL IGNORE IT, HAHA), YOU GET A WELCOME CARD AND INFO ABOUT THE VITAMIX REWARDS PROGRAM.


PRICE AND WARRANTY OF THE VITAMIX ONE

JUST LIKE All VITAMIX MACHINES THE VITAMIX ONE IS  MADE IN THE USA. IT SELLS FOR $249.95 USD AND 349.95 FOR CANADA RESIDENCES. IT WEIGHS APPROXIMATELY 6 LBS 3OZ  AND COMES WITH A 2 YEAR WARRANTY. NOW THIS IS A SHORTER WARRANTY THAN MOST OTHER VITAMIX MACHINES BUT VITAMIX BLENDERS TEND TO FAR OUTLIVE THEIR WARRANTIES. 

IT COMES WITH THE MINI TAMPER. NOW IF YOU GUYS HAVE A VITAMIX CONTAINER WITH THE MINI TAMPER IT’S THE SAME TAMPER AS THIS ONE. HOWEVER THE INCLUDED 32OZ CONTAINER IS THE ONLY ONE COMPATIBLE WITH THE VITAMIX ONE. 


I LOVE MAKING CASHEW MILK BECAUSE IT REQUIRES NO STRAINING SO YOU’RE GETTING ALL THE GOOD FATS, PROTEIN, FIBER AND NUTRIENTS. AND IT LOOKS AND TASTES VERY MUCH LIKE DAIRY-BASED MILK. IN MY TESTS THE VITAMIX ONE DID AN EQUALLY GREAT JOB CREATING CASHEW MILK AS WELL AS A PEAC SORBET WHEN COMPARED TO IT’S BIG BROTHER THE VITAMIX PRO 750.


IN CONCLUSION THE VITAMIX ONE IS A GREAT “SECOND” VITAMIX. IT’S IMPORTANT TO KNOW THAT IT IS NOT DESIGNED TO MAKE NUT BUTTERS. IT’S NOT DESIGNED TO MAKE HOT SOUPS OR HOT DRINKS AND THE CONTAINER IS NOT DISHWASHER SAFE. IF YOU PURCHASE IT WITH THIS INFORMATION IN MIND YOU WON’T BE DISAPPOINTED IN IT’S PERFORMANCE.

Vitamix Immersion Blender

Just a quick few impressions on why I feel an immersion blender is helpful and important even if you already have a Vitamix blender. Often when creating soups and stews you can blend up your tough ingredients in the Vitamix first then pour the blended ingredients into your stock pot to finish cooking. Immersion blenders are extremely helpful when needing to add more ingredients to blend in your stock pot without having to pour them all back into your Vitamix to continue blending.

I have used immersion blenders for years and they are also perfect for mixing protein shakes, milkshakes and smoothies all in the same drinking cup, and they are also excellent for creating mashed potatoes.

The Vitamix Immersion Blender will initially be available to the U.S and Canada markets.

Features Included:

625 watt motor

Made for right or left-handed use

5 speeds and 4-pronged Vitamix-engineered blades

Unique Bell Guard reduces suction and helps ingredients flow easily through the blades while protecting pots, pans, and your favorite blending containers from scratches.

Blend in any container with a 3-inch wide (or larger) opening, including a smoothie cup or a 1-quart wide-mouth Mason jar.

Cord for convenience. The immersion blender has a long 5-foot cord for ease of use, so you can blend with dependable power. Rather than losing power from cordless immersion blenders. 

There are many immersion blenders on the market for it to compete against, so if proven to be successful Vitamix may extend the availability to the UK market in the future. Vitamix products have proven to be state-of-the-art and built to commercial standards so I can see this product living in many kitchens, even those without Vitamix blenders. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section.

Priced at $149.95 USD and $199.95 Canada it will include a 3 year warranty. See HERE to check it out.

Vitamix Food Processor Attachment

THIS IS THE BOX THAT IT COMES PACKAGED IN, AND YOU KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS PICTURE BOXES WITH THE FEATURES AND RECIPES ARE LIKE THEATER. I NEVER THROW MY PICTURE BOXES AWAY. AND THE BLACK THEME REPRESENTS THE VITAMIX ASCENT LIFESTYLE IMAGE. 


WHAT’S INSIDE THE BOX OF THE VITAMIX FOOD PROCESSOR ATTACHMENT?

INSIDE THE BOX YOU GET THE 12 CUP FOOD PROCESSOR ATTACHMENT, 2 SETS OF DOUBLE-SIDED PROCESSING DISCS, A MULTI-USE PROCESSING BLADE, A RECIPE BOOK, A WELCOME PAMPHLET AND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL WHICH I RECOMMEND YOU GUYS SKIM THROUGH SO YOU CAN GET FAMILIAR AND GET THE BEST OUT OF THE FOOD PROCESSOR ATTACHMENT. 


THIS IS HOW IT LOOKS SITTING ON THE VITAMIX MOTOR BASE. NOW YOU GUYS, THE FOOD PROCESSOR ATTACHMENT IS ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH THE VITAMIX ASCENT AND THE VENTURIST LINE OF MACHINES. THIS IS DUE TO THE SAFETY FUNCTION BUILT INTO THE SELF DETECT BASE THAT REQUIRES THE WIRELESS FEATURE. IF YOU HAVE A VITAMIX CLASSIC OR THE LEGACY SUCH AS THE PRO 750 IT IS NOT COMPATIBLE. 


I’M EXCITED ABOUT THIS ACCESSORY FOR ONE MAIN REASON. IN MY OPINION IT COMPLETES THE PUZZLE FOR MAKING VITAMIX THE MOST VERSATILE CHEF’S TOOL ON THE MARKET. WITH THE MANY ACCESSORY CONTAINERS AVAILABLE, IN PARTICULAR FOR THE ASCENT LINE VITAMIX NOW HAS A TRUE COMPLETE KITCHEN. 

AND NOW THE FOOD PROCESSOR ATTACHMENT FOR TASKS THAT THE OTHER CONTAINERS ARE NOT BEST USED FOR.

THE MULTI-USE BLADE IS VERY COMMON WITH FOOD PROCESSORS, BUT I AM REALLY IMPRESSED BY THE BUILD QUALITY.  FROM THE GLASS-FILLED NYLON HOUSING TO THE MICRO-SERRATED BLADES. THIS BLADE IS LABLED AS #1. EACH BLADE DISC IS DOUBLE SIDED STARTING WITH #2 THIN SLICE. ON THE FLIP SIDE THE #3 SMALL SHRED. ON THE SECOND DISC IS #4 THICK SLICE AND ON THE FLIP SIDE #5 LARGE SHRED.
