I was curious whwther this would be a valid alternative for somebody not beeing able to shell out nearly 1K $. For me the built in scales are essential as well as the kneading function as I am mostly using the tm for making bread. All the rest comes as a more than welcome supplement – as you wrote sauces and stuff like curds are super easy woth the tm. I guess also the temperature fine tuning from 37C to 120C comes very handy (e.g. When melting chocolate for brownies). Your machine will STOP when the time has come and you’re cooking without temperature settings. If you’re doing something hot, it will stop heating so you won’t overcook your food but the blades will go on softly so that the bottom won’t be in permanent touch with direct heat.
I wouldn’t have bought the tmx if it was a glass bowl. Replace measuring cup after ingredients have been added. Measuring cup and continue blending, if necessary. To help clean heating plate and blades thoroughly.
Since everything is cooked and blended in the blender, cleanup is a breeze. Great for using with frozen foods because of the heating component. If you have any questions, suggestions for future reviews or spot anything that has changed in price or availability please get in touch at
If any part is damaged or blender jar is chipped or cracked, DO NOT USE BLENDER. The timer can only be set for up to 30 minutes at a time. When time runs out, the machine automatically shuts off. Sometimes soups need to cook longer than 30 minutes, so you need to be paying attention and remember to add the additional time, or you’ll discover that your soup has stopped cooking.
Use the measuring cup in the lid to measure liquid ingredients. Always replace after ingredients have been added. Leave ’em in, add some oil, and turn the knob to low. Basically, you can cook an entire soup in the 48-ounce capacity unit (56 ounces if you’re using it with cold items like smoothies or shakes) with minimal prep. Whether you are making chunky or smooth soups, jams, sauces for pasta, curries or tasty risottos you can complete every stage of your recipe in the Cuisinart Soup Maker. Watch your ingredients as they cook inside the robust glass jar, adjust the heat settings, add ingredients and stir as required to achieve perfect results.
Whether you’re a fan of bisque or borscht, French onion or oxtail, chowder or cock-a-leekie, there’s no denying the soothing feeling of a warm bowl of soup. And now that autumn is in full swing, it’s officially soup season. Parts, and to ensure that the product is still under warranty. Help solve the problem without having the product serviced. Or refund for nonconforming products under warranty.
With the touch of a button this blender cooks and blends your favorite soups. After my initial enthusiastic experiments I have used it about twice. It cuisinart soup maker does make good soup but no better than I can make in other ways. I especially agree with Mamta about the dangers of getting the jug off the base.
The blender will tackle anything you throw its way, including ice for cocktails, roasted vegetables for a soup or frozen fruit for a delicious smoothie. First, mum read through the instructions and recipe booklet. The instructions are “fairly well written” but do not make it clear that the jug has to be lifted, not unscrewed, off the base. She points out that as many jug blenders require a twist and lift action to remove the jug, it might be worth making this clearer so there are no unfortunate accidents with hot liquid. One of the biggest benefits of soup is its high comfort factor. Nothing, that is, except a bowl of warm homemade soup.
