Blender of the Redmond brand is the best gift for the hostess

Filling the kitchen with useful consumer electronics is becoming the norm. In the global home appliance market, Redmond Corporation is the main assistant to housewives in preparing homemade food. In this series there is a useful device - a blender, which I want to talk about.

What a blender can do

The English word "blender" is translated as "mix", but the device does not only perform this function. Different in type and configuration, blenders help to prepare a lot of tasty and correct dishes. This kitchen unit can:

• grind products in puree (vegetables, fruits, berries, meat, etc.);
• beat liquids into a foam;
• knead batter (pancakes), hard (dumplings);
• crush ice and nuts;
• chop into slices;
• cut the boiled ingredients into cubes;
• grind coffee, seeds, sugar.

Some new models are equipped with a nozzle that squeezes the juice from fruit vegetables. There are blenders with a vacuum pump that pumps air out of packaged food. With their help, you can marinate kebabs, cut vegetables into salads, make pastas, sauces, prepare juices, cocktails, and various drinks.

What are blenders

The minimum set of possibilities is to combine the efforts of a mixer, a chopper and a meat grinder. At most, the unit performs more than a dozen operations. In order to choose the optimal technique for your kitchen, corresponding to the requests for quality, price and functionality, we will study the issue in detail.

Blender types

Officially, there are two types of units - stationary and submersible. They differ in the principle of operation and characteristics (the description of the models indicated for the example is in the second part of the article).

 

1. Stationary (REDMOND RHB-M2900, REDMOND RSB-M3401) has a container that is attached to a structure of a motor, electronics, knives. The motor is installed on the table, containers and attachments are easily attached and removed.
2. Submersible (REDMOND RHB-2908, REDMOND RHB-CB2930) - a block with a motor is located in the handle. Holding the device in hand (sometimes it is called hand-held), it is immersed in any container with food prepared for processing. All kinds of attachments are provided for it.

Redmond has compiled a list of the pros and cons of each type:

	Advantages	disadvantages
Stationary blenders	mixing speed	does not work well at partial load
	the cups have graduated marks	fixed volume, small bowls
	chopper capabilities allow you to cut even meat	submersible will do better with this function
	ice pick	replaces meat grinder, kneader, mixer, coffee grinder and other units
	cutting vegetables, eggs
	making pates
	mixing liquids, fruits into a homogeneous mass
	several operating modes
	a large number of attachments	difficulty in care if there is no self-cleaning function
	display availability
	high performance
Hand blenders	compactness, light weight	it is inconvenient to hold the operating mode button all the time
	the ability to grind, mix in containers of different volumes any amount of food, especially important - the minimum	possible mass inhomogeneity when handling large masses
		takes longer to process
	ease of care: you only have to wash the working surface of the attachments, you can, without removing from the block, in running water
	can handle small volumes in any convenient place	the main inconvenience is to hold the device in your hands for the entire cooking period
	portability: battery-powered models for outdoor cooking for babies
	almost as powerful as stationary	splashes with inept use and high power

If the model of the hand blender is equipped with a chopping bowl, it becomes a combination type (REDMOND RFP-3950). Then it has advantages and disadvantages of both types.

Power

The most important characteristic of a blender is its power. The speed of work, the quality of processing, and productivity depend on it. It is important to understand: if the model has a turbo mode, in the characteristic they can write the rated power or the maximum (sometimes twice the average) - be careful.

1. Minimum - 300/600 W (REDMOND RHB-2933)

This power is convenient for preparing baby food and cocktails. Easy to beat eggs, make smoothies, puree. Not suitable for grinding nuts, solid foods, coffee. No need to pay attention to the rotation speed of the cutting part (revolutions per minute) - it slows down under load (immersion in the mass of processed ingredients) due to the low power of the motor.

2. Small - 400-450 W (REDMOND RHB-2914)

Suitable for chopping meat, hard cheese. Typically, these models are equipped with a turbo function. When the turbo is turned on, the motor gives out maximum speed, but it cannot be used constantly: a motor that is running at the limit for this time will quickly become unusable. This mode works correctly according to the scheme: 30 sec. work, then 10 sec. break.

3. Average - 500-700 W (REDMOND RHB-2919L)

The most popular models are of medium power. Economical, multifunctional, budget. Such devices, in addition to cocktails and mashed potatoes, grind meat, mushrooms, fruits, vegetables, and break ice. In these models, a pulse mode is provided: the motor works with a periodic short shutdown. This helps to process solid food more efficiently.

4. Above average - 700-800 W (REDMOND RHB-2908)

Powerful devices add slicing, crushing, mixing of solid food supplies. The higher the power, the more tasks the machine solves.

5. High - 1000 or more (REDMOND RHB-2930)

The capabilities of this machine are limited only by the strength of the attachments and containers. Any food raw material in any quantity to the desired consistency will be processed by a powerful device. In terms of parameters, these blenders will not be inferior to the average food processor, working as usual.

Speed ​​mode

To make a cocktail, you don't have to turn on the turbo mode, buy a powerful car. Quite the opposite - excessive agitation will ruin the drink. The meat may not turn into minced meat, but into pate. Therefore, Redmond provides several speed modes and the "turbo" function. There is a fixed option and an adaptive one. When fixed, there can be up to 15 speeds, but when switching the device must be stopped. In the second option, you have to hold the button or adjustment knob during operation. From the force of pressing in the course of work, the revolutions will increase or decrease.

Control type

There are only two options - mechanical (manual) and electronic control.

The mechanical type (most) is budgetary in price, reliable, easy to use, but there are disadvantages:

• few modes, switch manually with a stop;
• requires direct participation during the cooking process;
• mechanics does not allow to work with interruption, there is no smooth gear shifting.

Electronic type of control (REDMOND RHB-2949) increases the price of goods, dimensions and weight. The advantages of stationary electronics:

• convenient to manage;
• smooth transition in speed, there are much more of them;
• setting your own parameters for work;
• additional features;
• auto power off and on.

In this segment, there are models with sensors for determining the degree of product crushing. The functionality has been significantly expanded. The device works without the presence of a person - set the program and do other dishes for lunch.

The disadvantages of such management will be:

• dimensions and weight;
• whimsical and less reliable equipment;
• afraid of mechanical damage, requires careful handling.

Be very wary of inexpensive electronics. Here, a decrease in price leads to a decrease in the quality of work.

Material

The housing can be plastic or metal. Metal is stronger, but it is susceptible to moisture corrosion, heavy, electrically conductive, which means it is less safe. For home, of course, a plastic case is preferable. But the plastic cutting mechanism is an indicator of a lack of quality. Attachments and knives must be metal.

The containers in the kit can be plastic or glass. Glass is more durable: it does not cloud, does not scratch, you can use hot water. In this matter, plastic wins in only one thing - it will not break when dropped.

What else to consider when choosing a blender

The first thing to determine before buying is how often the device will be used and which functions are needed more:

• If you have a small child, a blender should always be at hand, but it will not be very convenient to prepare mixtures by hand. Hence, it is necessary to choose a stationary model.
• In a small kitchen, it is better to have a submersible device that does not take up much space.
• The size of the family plays an important role. A small family will get by with a submersible device, a large one, where you need to cook a lot, will choose a stationary machine.
• Equipment. The more components, the more possibilities. But the price is also higher.
• Additional options: shredder, mixer, grater, chopper, coffee grinder.

All these moments are individual for each family, respectively, and they need different blenders. Do not be tempted by advertising slogans "the best", "unique" - the best when it is most useful in your kitchen.
