yes

I need a blender.

I thinkyou just answered me but... does it juice fruit? What will it liquify and what won't it?

Leafy greens ie spinnach or root vegies, carrots? Tomatoes?

What model would you recomend to someone?

Just made a 6min egg, peeled a clementine, toasted a bagel, a cup of tea, and some pineapple through the vitamix.

a cup of tea sounds good

tried out the Bacon Salt on a batch of scrambled eggs; yep, its good and does what it advertises, I'm pleased

You need to add some liquid unless you get a super duper ridiculous one, but it doesn't take much. The Vitamix 5200 will pretty much liquify anything you throw at it. Brocoli, Strawberry seeds, pineapple pulp, carrots and so on. Carrot juice in a blender is usually made by blending the shit out of it with no liquid and then pouring the mash through cheesecloth. You could add liquid and drink it all too though.

I chose the Vitamix over the Blendtec for two main reasons. 1) Comes with a plunger and eventually ANYTHING can get stuck, 2) It is manual control and not computer controlled and I don't want this thing to ever break and if so it should be super cheap to fix. 11 year warranty doesn't hurt though either.

There are better but both of those are around $400 and to improve you need to break the $1000 mark and for me that made no sense.

For Aaron, more RD funnies :

Steve sells untested amp from crashed car, kowboy receives blown amp.

Unbelievable. How in the world are they still in business, I mean honestly

What kind of money does it take to get a decent coffee grinder?

couple hundred minimum; Sean recommends at least 400 if I remember correctly

Last night was one of the worst nights in recent memory. Food poisoning to the max. Puked from probably 11pm to 7 am. Spagetti Os are forever out of my diet after that experience.

Fuck the IHoP! Loads too fucking slow.

Yep, I've got it open in four windows otherwise no way in hell I'd type anything.

We are working on it. Might have to move to an ever faster host. The ever climbing costs to run this joint. ;(

I consider this a starter grinder:

Chris Coffee Service - MACAP M4 Stepless Adjustment Espresso Grinder

...but I do have one of these that I'd sell to you used, in great shape:

Chris Coffee Service - "NEW" 2009 Rocky Doserless Espresso Grinder by Rancilio

If you aren't pulling shots, it is a great grinder. Even for those it is good, but once you have something that is infinitely adjustable and super precise it is hard to go back. I have the original packaging as well and have been meaning to pop it up on Ebay, but haven't gotten around to it. Mine is not the "new" version though. Looks nearly identical.

It is the one next to the machine here:

Rancilio Silvia Espresso Machine Rocky Grinder Base ++ - eBay (item 370313671403 end time Jan-06-10 16:41:55 PST)

I can't find much even worth the time for less than that. I think the cheepest I ever saw was 300, but it was sale. I lurked coffee forums for a while. If we're talking espresso grinding that is. You want to make sure it's really really really realllllllllly even and pretty fine. They are all bur grinders if i remember correctly.

Sean will chime in and correct me though. I are sure of it.

He corrected me prior to me even needing to be corrected.

lawls

I also have a "disposable" kitchen aid burr grinder. Was nearly $100 and can't grind coffee to even make pizzle. Complete shit.

Wouldn't mind picking that grinder up off of you, but don't have the money to throw around right now though.

I know the feeling. I might still have it later. We'll see how rambunctious I get with selling stuff.

Don't get to rambunctious with that one. What were you looking to get out of it?

the 5200 can boil things... due to blade friction???

OMG bbq

On side by sides the vitamix sounds like less of a machine, but personal reviewes make me lean to the vitamix.

awesome. Thanks.

Whatever they are going for on Ebay, but for you less.

I've made soup or hot stock in mine with doing nothing else other than putting in veggies, water, and turning it on. Be careful with the raw garlic though as it will be more potent than you think

Blendtec is better at marketing that is for sure. They came in to the game solely to take part of the share from Vitamix. Had they had a plunger and manual control I would have bought one, but I wouldn't even have a microwave that requires you to push buttons to set the time. Analog dial/switches ftmfw.

And yes, omgbbq
