Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Hello Ronaye,It depends on how smooth and how cold you want your final product. You can blend either fruits or veggies for a short or a long time. The longer you blend, the colder it will need to be in the beginning (so you don't get a hot juice). The less you blend, the less "smooth" the final texture will be. It is all a matter of how YOU like your final product!

The veggies drinks should not blend longer than 50 seconds, is that right?So, ideally, just blend a bit after each addition of several veggies and keep them from getting warm? But the smoothies should blend about 2 minutes or so?Thanks, I just want to be more clear about this Ronaye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 If you want it smoother (like I do) , I always blend smoothies for over a minute but no more than 2, probably about 1.5 minutes. Just make sure you put about a cup of ice or even 2 cups if it's a full batch. The ice will keep your drink cold with the longer blending time and it doesn't water it down. > > Hi! > > I just have a quick question about blending.
