•
DO NOT juice hard vegetables (turnip, carrot potatoes,
uncooked beetroot etc).
• Cut all fruit and vegetables into segments or thin sticks before
juicing.
Beakers, Lids And Jug
Your Easy Blend comes with 5 beakers of varying capacity.
Blending beakers (9), (11), (13)
There are 3 sizes of blending beakers supplied. 300ml (11), 500ml
(13) and 750ml (9). Do not overfill. The Beakers have 3 separate
Lids, all are interchangeable between the different sizes. We
recommend grinding spices or coffee in the 300ml capacity
beaker.
Lids (8), (10), (12)
There are three types of beaker lids supplied. All the lids are
compatible with all the beakers. Use the Sports (8) and Straw Lids
(12) for drinks on the go. Use the Flat Lid (10) to store rubs,
marinades and sauces.

The Jug supplied is for use with the Juicing process, as depicted
on page 8-9. It has a
maximum capacity of 750ml. You can also use the Jug to blend
smoothies and milkshakes by

32

2. Add your ingredients to the Jug (5), Do not over fill. The Jug has a
maximum capacity of 750ml.
3. Insert the Measuring Cap (17) into the Juicer Lid (2) twist to lock
into place. Attach the Lid to the Jug ensuring the
blank side
of
the Lid is aligned with the spout (not the grate). See above.
Ensure the Measuring Cap and Lid are fixed in place securely.
4. Blend as normal (Steps 5-6 of ‘Using your Easy Blend Beakers’).
5. Before pouring your drink from the Jug, detach from the Main Unit
(6).
Blades
Your Easy Blend comes with 2 separate Blade Lids.
Quad Blade (14)
The Quad Blade is designed for blending and mixing wet
ingredients such as fruit or vegetables. This blade should be used
for making smoothies or juicing.
Dual Blade (15)
The Dual Blade is designed for use with dry ingredients like coffee
beans or herbs and spices.
Note: neither blade is suitable for blending bone, potatoes, dough
or heavy foods.
Hints And Tips For Juicing
• Prepare all the ingredients first and have them conveniently placed
near the appliance, this will ensure you keep the juicing time
short. Do not exceed 550g of prepared fruit for juicing.
• The recipe cards supplied should give you 1 glass (approximately
200ml) of fresh juice depending on the condition of the fruits
used.
• If you should need to juice for more than 1 minute, switch off,
allow to rest for 30 seconds, continue for a further 30 seconds if
required. Do not exceed this 1 minute run time as permanent
damage could be caused to the motor and blade bearing.
• When removing the Jug from the Main Unit (6), ensure you do not
unscrew the jar from the Blade Lid. Support the Blade Lid if you
see it turning, leakage will occur if you allow this to happen.
• When pouring juice out keep the pusher in place to retain the
pulp.
• After pouring the juice out into a glass allow the pulp to stand in
the jug for 2 minutes, this will allow more juice to flow through the
Filter mesh (3).
General Hints And Tips
• To reduce the thickness of a smoothie, use the Pulse setting.
• Use the Pulse speed setting (P) for short periods of up to 10
seconds. For longer periods of time blending, use Speed II.
• When removing the Beaker from the Main Unit (6) hold the edge
of the Blade Lid and twist.
DO NOT
hold the Beaker.
• If using seeded berries, you may wish to sieve the drink before
serving for a smoother consistency.
• Ripe bananas give a much better, sweeter flavour than green
ones.
• Pineapple should be fresh, with all skin removed.
• Mango should be ripe, peeled and de-stoned.
• Remove the peel and pith from citrus fruit to avoid a bitter tasting
juice and damaging the Easy Blend Deluxe.
• Soak fresh ginger in cold water for a few minutes before use for a
milder flavour.
• Ingredients at room temperature will give a higher juice yield than
those used straight from the refrigerator.
• Tomatoes produce a thick juice, adding a few grapes will dilute
the drink and add sweetness.
• Use seasonal ingredients to add variety to your fruit juices.
• Add a few herbs to vary the flavour or add a handful of kale for a
healthier option.
• Remove the skin from cucumber to alleviate the bitterness.
