• For mincing meat, always place approx. 200g into the mincing jug. It may be
helpful to add some droplets of cooking oil. Additionally, you may add herbs and
spices (e.g. pepper, capsicum, curry) for mincing, but in most cases you should
not add salt at this point of preparation. Always keep one hand on the lid of the
mincing jug, while the motor is agitating.
• Especially solid ingredients may be processed with better results when operating
the motor in short pulses. For this, turn the selection dial to and fro several times.
• Please note, that minced meat must be consumed shortly after mincing or, at least,
you should cook it at once to avoid the build-up of harmful germs.
• If the ingredients stick to the inner walls of the glass jug, stop the motor and switch
off at the power switch, before pushing the food down via the provided scraper.
• When using the mincing jug, you should avoid adding too much liquid. Only
use some droplets. Otherwise, liquid could run out from under the lid. Your food
should still have a glutinous consistency, when processed. Otherwise, use the
mixing jug in combination with the mincing blades. There will be only little diffe-
rence in the results.
USING THE GRINDING SYSTEM (OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES)
• Ensure that your food and all parts of the grinding system are completely dry,
before filling the grinding cup.
• Most ingredients (nuts, seeds) are processed within seconds. In most cases, 10 to
15 seconds of operation on speed level 5 are sufficient.
• If you wish to get your food in granulated form, use an appropriate lower speed
level.
• For getting even results, fill the grinding cup with approx. 150g. However, the
amount is not really crucial but, when processing your food in portions, all single
portions should have the same weight roundabout.
• When grinding seeds like sesame, nuts, and other oily food, add some caster
sugar or fine salt to the grinding cup. This will keep the product fluffy and prevent
your ingredients from going lumpy or excessively sticking to the inner walls of the
grinding cup.
• If the food sticks to the inner walls of the grinding cup, in most cases, you do not
need to open the grinding system for loosening the food. Simply remove the grin-
ding system from the motor base and shake the grinding system. Perhaps, hit the
grinding cup slightly with your palm. Then re-assume operation.
• Some ingredients can be ground with better results by operating the appliance in
short pulses. Give it a try.
