The OmniBlend V has both automatic and manual controls allowing users to set & forget or be hands-on creative. The OmniBlend is an extremely versatile food preparation machine that can be used for smoothies, soups, sauces, dips, pesto, nut butters, nut milk, ice cream, grind grains into flour, coffee beans & more.
Motor: A powerful 3HP motor which can deliver a blade speed of 38,000 rpm. It is very energy efficient at only 950W (not bad considering it produces 3HP). I am told that this blender is sturdy enough to withstand heavy duty commercial use in restaurants and juice bars.
Blades: The 6 blade cuttung assembly is made from highest quality, Japanese precision stainless stell. Replacement blades are available for purchase. The blades and jug are designed for both wet and dry ingredients and can make a hot soup in minutes heating with just friction. I gave this method a try for some of my soup recipes for the Raw Meatless Monday Man Challenge, more on this in the weeks to come.
The jug: The 1.5 litre jug is made of unbreakable food- grade polycarbonate jug and is heat resistant to over 120 degrees Celsius which means you can blend hot soups straight off the stove top. It is suitable for both wet and dry ingredients unlike some blenders like the Vitamix that need separate wet and dry jugs/blade. The jug has quiet a wide base compared to other blenders I have used in the past. This ensures that food particles don`t seem to get stuck under the blades when in use. They also offer a BPA-free 1.5 litre jug.
