Re-knead by hand only. Re-kneading in the bowl is not recommended as it may cause the processor to become unstable.

Use fresh ingredients
Do not cut food too small. Fill the width of the feed tube fairly full. This prevents the food from slipping sideways during processing.
When slicing or grating: food placed upright comes out shorter than food placed horizontally.
There will always be a small amount of waste on the disc or in the bowl after processing.

For best results store and juice the fruit at room temperature and hand roll on a worktop before juicing.
To help with juice extraction move the fruit from side to side when juicing.
When juicing large quantities, empty the strainer regularly to prevent the build up of pulp and seeds.

When making mayonnaise, put all the ingredients, except the oil, into the blender. Remove the filler cap. Then, with the appliance running, add the oil slowly through the hole in the lid.
Thick mixtures, e.g. pâtés and dips, may need scraping down. If the mixture is difficult to process, add more liquid.
The processing of spices is not recommended as they may damage the plastic parts.
To blend dry ingredients – cut into pieces, remove the filler cap, then with the appliance running, drop the pieces down one by one. Keep your hand over the opening. For best results empty regularly.
Do not use the blender as a storage container. Keep it empty before and after use.
Never blend more than 1.2 liters – less for frothy liquids like milkshakes.

Do not process hot ingredients

30 – 60

| 50g/2oz|

For optimum performance when processing spices we recommend that you do not process more than 50g at a time in the mill.
Whole spices retain their flavor for a much longer time than ground spices so it is best to grind a small quantity fresh at a time to retain the flavor.
To release the maximum flavor and essential oils whole spices are best roasted prior to milling.
Do not process turmeric root in the mill as it is too hard and may damage the blades.
Cut ginger up into small pieces before processing.
For best results the main bowl is recommended when chopping herbs.

Before processing remove stones and pips (eg pepper, melon, plum) and tough skins (e.g. melon, pineapple). You do not need to peel or core apples and pears.
Use firm, fresh fruit and vegetables.
Citrus fruit – peel and remove the white pith, otherwise the juice may taste bitter. For best results use the citrus juicer.
