Mixer of Death

You are wrong there, Thorsten. It wouldn’t be the device of choice because the TM simply doesn’t have enough power or isn’t designed for that. So not a cannon, but in this case a needle :)

I think I see it correctly, similar to you, just from a different perspective.

So – I don’t mix smoothies either, I don’t like the taste. I drink traditional orange juice, apple juice, carrot juice, and tomato juice.

No smoothie has convinced me so far.

We’re dealing here with an area where it’s about grinding the smallest components so finely that they’re no longer noticeable in a smoothie. I believe the TM isn’t quite the right device for that. There are high-performance blenders specifically made for such purposes and only those.

The TM could probably do a decent job – it really has enough power – about 80-90% good, but here 100% is required.

With the TM, too much residue would remain unground, stuck to the wall – that’s the problem, definitely not the lack of power. If you have ever experienced that with a TM: it was defective. Honestly. It even chops firewood, it makes everything small. But the shape of the bowl is not suitable for this specific purpose.

Besides, the TM can do much more (and does so very well), which the OP doesn’t need. That’s why I said “cannon to kill a sparrow” in my post. In this case, I myself advised against it.

If I need a blender, and not a universal kitchen machine: buy a blender. The good ones aren’t cheap anyway………

I’m never upset about other opinions like yours now. Why should I? Life is about exchanging opinions, that’s great.

Best regards Thorsten

Oh - PS: Many years ago I once had adhesive dots from a well-known department store chain and bought with them - I found nothing else - a blender. One of those "magic wand derivatives." Hellish rotations. With X attachments. It says Grundig as the brand on it. I felt sick back then......Grundig on a blender. My C6200 and C5000 in the living room (almost 40 years old) in honor (I was a big fan of Grundig as a child/teenager, that was the best quality ever).

Well, the device was inexpensive, I had the points anyway.

Well - the device is not that bad. On the contrary. It’s really good. Has power, chops well and especially the attachment for vegetables or cheese (I often make cheese spaetzle myself): I regularly don’t use the TM, but only this blender. It shows no weaknesses. But it wouldn’t be suitable for making smoothies.
