What is the maximum amount of liquid and food to put
into the blender container?
The blender volume will hold 1 1/2 cups of liquid and solids. To
avoid overflowing, stay at or under these amounts. The ratio of 1
cup of liquids and 1/2 cup of solids is recommended, or 1 cup of
solids with 1/2 cup of liquids can also be blended safely.
What happens when vegetables are put into the blender
and they don't blend?
Putting more liquid in the blender container and removing half the
vegetables makes for easier blending. Once the first half is
blended, put in the remaining vegetables and they will blend with
ease.
Can the blender process flaxseeds into flax meal?
The smaller, wider based blender container is perfect for grinding
flax and other small seeds. Put the seeds dry into the smaller
container, using the blade that fits this blender container, and
pulse or leave the blender on continuous blending for the
consistency you desire. Flax, sunflower, pumpkin, and sesame seeds
can easily be blended into a 'meal' or finely powdered consistency.
Does the Tribest Personal Blender™ 'chop' ice?
Yes, ice is easily chopped. If you want to make a 'smoothie', add 3
or 4 ice cubes to the recipe and make it refreshingly cool. Snow
cones can also be blended with just ice and a bit of fruit juice
concentrate flavoring. During hot weather these recipes are a great
way to cool down.
Can the Tribest Personal Blender™ grind nuts?
Yes, you can grind nuts into A NUT 'MEAL' or a Finely powdered nut.
For this kind of consistency, make sure the nuts are totally dry
before putting into the blender. Please note, the blender is not
built to make nut butters. It will easily make pates and sauces with
nuts – look in our recipe book for suggestions.
Does the Tribest Personal Blender™ make salad
dressings?
Yes, easily. Use the ingredient ratio of liquids to solids to make
sure you don't overflow - 1/2 cup liquids to 1 cup solids. If a
thinner dressing is desired, add more liquids: oils, lemon juice,
vinegar, or soft 'fruits' (I.e. avocado, sliced tomatoes).
How can fruit sauces be made in the Tribest Personal
Blender™?
Many different kinds of fruit 'sauces' can be simply blended whether
it be apple sauce, pear sauce, or peach sauce. Add half the fruit
with at least 1/4 cup liquid - water or juice works well - and then
blend. Add the remaining fruit to thicken the sauce. If softer fruit
sauces are desired - like blueberry, raspberry, or other berries -
just blend the fruit alone. No other liquid is needed as these
fruits are easily "sauced."
Does the Tribest Personal Blender™ make baby food?
Yes, as many varieties as you can create from raw fruits, raw
vegetables, or lightly steamed vegetables. Caution: if you are
blending hot foods - use a pot holder or other protection for your
hands when you take the blender off its base. The blender material
does heat up.
Is the Tribest Personal Blender™ container dishwasher
safe?
Only the blending and grinding containers are dishwasher safe. The
blade assemblies, lids, and other items that came with your Personal
Blender should be hand washed.

Can the Tribest Personal Blender™ process hot foods?

foods that are hot. However, when touching the blender container -
please protect your hands with a pot holder or a thick towel. The
blender container can and does heat up quickly.
