I'm a Melbourne (Bayside area, Highett) based Thermomix fan and BDM with Thermomix in Australia. I like to share my passion for the machine with all of you. I hope you'll learn new tips and tricks so you can make the most out of your machine! Let me know what's of interest for you and I'll try to show you how it's done :-)
TM5 - Scale problem not fixed: My friend asked me to check her TM5 as the scales were jumping up and down. I cleaned the feet, put it on a flat surface, did a Factory reset - the scale is still jumping around. The solution is to courier it to the Thermomix Service Centre Auckland from the South Island. Ouch the cost!! plus servicing and return to her.!! No Thanks -Good Cooks don't need one - Thy're just an expensive toy.
Yes you are… please see my disclaimer in the description. Most of my videos were filmed and uploaded prior to these changes. Disclaimer: Vorwerk has adjusted how you cook with your Thermomix above 95C to use the simmering basket instead of the TM6 measuring cup. This video was filmed and posted before those changes have been made. Please always follow the on screen safety instructions and refer to thermomixfacts.com.au/ for further information.
Yes you need to put a minimum of 500 ml of water into the bowl, plus some lemon juice. You’ll find these info/details on the info page on your tm6 screen
I mean no offense to you personally, Im just browsing videos about the machine today as I have a chance to work with one next week. That being said, those are some of the worst poached eggs I've ever seen. Just plopping them into the water from a height is a warcrime.
Thanks for this question. You can indeed scale up or down lots of the recipes as long as you stay within the maximum filling lines. Check out cookidoo.com.au for more details about scaling recipes 😊
I loved spending much of my evening watching you wonderful women prepare these wonderful dishes. I found them all on my Thermomix app I have the Thermomix six and have enjoyed this appliance for the last two years… absolutely wonderful. The only one I will have to play with is the mixed salad there are variations of this salad I will have to come back to watch exactly the salad dressing there were equal three items to make the salad dressing. At least I think so. I also thank you for sharing how to navigate on the app… before I bought my Thermomix anniversary bundle I downloaded the Thermomix app and got a good feel of it. Since that time two years later and today incredible. I am still a bit confused about obtaining the additional products.
Hi, It sits just on top and slightly locks in. Do you have the original plastic one (I’m showing here) or the metal blade cover & peeler version? The latter locks in 😊
It does to me every once in a while. Very annoying. It wouldn't release the arms. I turn it off and unplug it with my food in the and restart it again and still wont release the arms. I tried everything I could think of.
Do you find that the long life milk makes the yoghurt taste different than when made with ordinary milk? (I ask because I dislike the taste of long life milk in tea or coffee)
Hi Jennifer, I personally don’t mind the taste of the long life milk in my yogurt … although I also don’t like to drink it pure (I prefer fresh milk in my muesli too 😉). You could give it a go and try with 1 litre only and see how you like it. If not at all you can still use it up in cooking, salad dressing or tenderise meat with it.
Thanks Janny, I bought a litre of long life milk today-before reading your message-as I thought it worth a try. So, it is encouraging to read that although you don’t like it to drink it you find it acceptable in yoghurt.. I intend to cook it this evening. @@JannyThermoCrazy
Hangs heading embarrassment. Like the idiot I sometimes strongly resemble, I forgot that I didn’t have any yoghurt in the fridge with which to start the fermentation. Now I have to wait until I go shopping sometime late next week.@@JannyThermoCrazy
I made it at long last. It was yummy! I could, just, taste a difference from yoghurt, made with fresh milk, but I rather like the taste of that difference. I will definitely be using UTH milk in future as it is certainly quicker, and it makes a great yoghurt. That the UTH milk also lasts a lot longer than ordinary milk is a great advantage for someone like me who is all too often inclined to put doing things off until ‘tomorrow’ aka ‘next week ‘@@JannyThermoCrazy
I can’t believe there are no way to open the arms if there is a power failure. What happens if you are cooking and the machine malfunctions and it doesn’t matter if the power is on or off due to failure, you can’t release the arms I can’t believe Thermomix did not provide a way to get those arms open shipping to Thermomix back to the factory with a container full of food that is old will not be much fun. I suspect that one would take off the back grill and using a be a tool to manually open the arms. They just not telling you about it.
Hi I just tried making yogurt this way and I added some vanilla as I wanted a sweeter yogurt but I was wondering can I still use some of this batch for my next starter if it has vanilla in it?
If I want the yoghurt in small jars placed in the basket and to be fermented at 40 deg Celcius, what temperature should I set in the fermentation mode? It seems too long for the milk to reach a temperature of 40C. Could you please share your experiences?
The Varoma method, either in individual jars or in a container that fits the size of the Varoma dish is very different. You can find the recipe on cookidoo. In this video I show the bowl method.
Thanks for sharing! I have the TM6 and my scale is not jumping up and down, it's just that the measured values are not ok (I have a separate scale that is working). Sometime the values are very different from the real ones, but not always! Do you have any advice about that? Thanks in advance
Hi, if it’s a “sometime” and not all the time issue my bets are on the “something got underneath “ case or the cord has tension somehow. When still in doubt I recommend contacting your consultant or give Thermomix service centre a call.
@@JannyThermoCrazy Thanks! The cable is ok and there is noyhing underneath. I think I would have to "clean" the sensors, but I don't know how to do it.
@@GagliardiPhotography the three feet are the “sensors”. So it could be either something underneath or on the workbench (which is completely normal when cooking 😉) Yet again, if you are still in doubt please give the service team a call or reach out to them via the Thermomix® website.
@@JannyThermoCrazy Thanks again. I already called them but the service told me I have to change the motherboard (250€). And I don't think the motherboard is involved. I don't knwo if there is an international service, but I tried here in Italy and this is what happened!
Hi Beata, It is possible to cook without the blades moving… In saying that, that’s not the principle of the Thermomix cooking, BUT it is possible when using the built in cooking modes. Eg the egg boiler mode, which does not use the blades. I’m curious what it is you’d like to make in a Thermomix that doesn’t require blades?
@@btaina37 mmm I see what you mean, but that’s not really the case 😊 The speed of the blades goes from 45 revs/min (gently stirring) up to 10.700 revs/min (milling). Check out my other cook with me videos to see a few more examples 😊
made 2kg of butter from ‘reduced to clear’ 2.4kg heavy whipping cream today. Total cost £2! well worth doing, now divided and wrapped, vac packed and in freezer for use later.
Hi, I’m sorry I have no info when the cutter will arrive in the USA. Please check out their official website for more info - I’m sure it’s not far away there too
@@isaachaze1 they might come a little bit later, just keep an eye out on their website or make sure you stay in touch with your local consultant. They will keep you up to date :-)
Thanks for the video. I used raw heavy whipping cream, but it went from separating and releasing very little buttermilk into back to a cream consistency again. Any idea what could have gone wrong? Thanks
Not sure really… but whatever cream you are using, you’ll need to keep whipping until the solids and liquids completely separate… depending on how fresh/old your cream is (the fresher the longer this process takes) it can take up to 10 minutes whipping :-)
Not enough fat content in your whipping cream. You want something close to 50% fat content (double cream in the UK, not sure about other places) in order to get quick separation of solids (and more bang for your buck, i.e. more solids than buttermilk at the end of the churning process).
Just tried the cover for the first time and found it good; there were three or four potatoes that I put in for a second go but they came out well after a 2 minute scraping the second time. Will be a great boon as I’ve got rheumatoid arthritis and when it flares, I struggle to do everyday tasks.
Thank you for your feedback and your comment. 😍 I’m so glad to hear you find it helpful especially for your personal individual needs. 😘 Keep on Mixing!! 💪🏻🤞🏻
