Nutribullet

Never really noticed that. I use almond milk so maybe it reacts differently to dairy? Dunno. Sounds like you're enjoying the new toy :).

I'm loving. I'm pretty sure if I accidentally run over a hobo I can just stuff him in here and it would eviscerate the evidence too.

Once you use a nutribullet or a high-speed blender (like a Vitamix or the cheaper alternatives) you'll never want to use a regular blender again. There's no comparison.

In what way? I'd imagine the outcome between Fox1's R199 special and a "high-speed blender" would be similar. Hell the checkers special has a more powerful motor than the nutribullet thing so I'm not even convinced its less "high-speed".

Whether the checkers special will last beyond a week...well thats a different question. :erm:
 
It might have roughly the same outcome, but it's not going to be as fast and not going to be as smooth as the Nutribullet. You really have to use a blender and a nutribullet side by side to see it for yourself. There's just no comparison. It even grinds ice down in mere seconds.

The blender I have is an omniblend (local company) which has a 3HP motor and a 4-way blade configuration. It can turn almonds into almond butter. The blade turns so fast it heats up liquid in a few minutes. It'll blend pretty much anything, so fruit and veg gets blended very smooth.

I imagine the nutribullet has a similar appeal for those that use it. Mine came with a 3yr warranty on the blade and I think 2 years on the motor.
 
How big is the cup part in ml? I need about 600-700ml at least.

Currently using a Russell Hobbs blender from Makro I got for R700.

Mostly used for Banana + Oats + Pronutro + Milk (+ Whey if post workout). Its a mission to clean and makes a lot of noise, but does the job.

Wrong thread... That's a centrifugal juicer, and not a nutribullet or other type of blender.

I'm undecided as to what I want. I have a regular blender but it just doesn't cut it (huehuehue) anymore.

Let's say I want to make Apple and ginger juice by just dropping an apple and ginger into something. What would that something be?

Do you want juice with all the fibre & solid stuff removed or do you want all that stuff left in?

It can remain but i don't want it to be thick and pulpy the way it would in a regular blender.

The nutribullet seems like it might do what you need. However, I've never used one and really enjoy the omniblend blenders: http://omniblend.co.za/?gclid=CJKsqOnT4cYCFRDKtAodzPQMRw. I suppose it might be overkill for just making juice, but when you start blending pretty much anything in there like nuts for nut butter it's pretty cool. It's basically a cheaper version of the Vitamix blender (damn cool blender but dat price...). I use my omniblend daily and it's lasted very well. Had a 2/3 year guarantee on the motor and blade assembly. But yeah - not sure how much you're gonna use it. Works great for juice though :).
 
Quick question. Can I make a brocoli and cauliflour( Both uncooked) drink with the nutribullet?

You can make it for sure.

Is it something you'd want to drink from a taste perspective? That's a whole 'nother story...
