Pancakes
You'll never make fluffier pancakes than those with batter made in a blender.
Which blender speed settings should I use?
Your blender will have various speeds and modes, depending on which model you have. They allow you to customise your blend and get the results you need. We encourage you to experiment!
Pulse P / Ice crush
The Pulse 'P' function gives you a burst of power, with a Soft Start to avoid ingredient splatter. It's ideal for crushing ice and works until you release the dial back to 'O'.
Variable speeds 1-3
Manual speeds give you ultimate control: Fruits, sauces, soups, doughs, vegetables, butters, dips, nuts, frozen desserts, purées...
Explore optional blender accessories
Choose blender accessories (sold separately) to make whatever you like — no matter what your favourites and your routine.
Variable speeds 1 – 3 and Pulse P / Ice crush
You can use all the speed modes with the various jars. From big meals to little dips, you can use the blender jar (1.4L), the personal jar (0.5L) and the small batch jar (0.2L).
JARS
Speed 1
The Citrus press 1L is for the K150, K130 or K400 blender. Quickly extract juices without the pulp. Don't go over speed 1 for this accessory.

How to crush ice with the blender
Your blender is also an ice crusher, allowing you to make slushies and frozen treats in moments. The Pulse / Ice Crush function allows you to chop and crush ice without the need to add any liquid ingredients. Here's how...
Step 1
Take ice from a standard ice cube tray (or 7-8 average ice cubes) at a time for blending. Place them in the blender jar and firmly secure the lid, with the Lid Centre Cap in place.
Step 2
Turn and hold the Control Dial from 'O' to 'P' for the desired amount of time. When you release the Control Dial, the blender will stop.
Step 3
Remove the Lid Centre Cap only. Stir or press the contents down towards the Blade (you can use the tamper accessory - sold separately). Place the Lid Centre Cap back on to continue blending until all ice is crushed.
