Whisks for a blender: types and rules of operation

Nowadays it is impossible to imagine a kitchen without a blender. This indispensable assistant can whip, mix and grind products. Using a blender, they prepare cocktails, sauces, make dough for pancakes and various pastries, grind minced meat and much more.

The blender has several nozzles, it all depends on the configuration and model. But not a single blender model can do without such a necessary device as a whisk. Sometimes removable nozzles become unusable and the question arises before the hostess: how to replace the old whisk for a blender with a new, better one.

First you need to figure out what a whisk is. This part is made of aluminum wire, which is not subject to corrosion. The whisk is used for whipping and mixing batter, as well as for the preparation of juices, glazes, smoothies, cocktails and sauces.

Products have a different shape, which depends on the purpose. For mashed potatoes, creams and cocktails, the usual models are used. They can be oval, straight or wave-shaped. There are special models. Such products can come to replace a full-fledged mixer.

Using such a device in cooking saves time. With a whisk, you can quickly and easily beat the dough for pancakes or fritters, as well as prepare a magnificent omelet in a minute. In the preparation of creams and glazes whisk mixes well, without leaving lumps.

Light weight makes this item convenient to use, and the high-speed mode button will help you quickly and efficiently prepare a dessert of any complexity. In addition, the whisk attachment for the blender is easy to remove and wash.

Among the shortcomings can be noted the fragility of the product, if the whisk is made of not very high quality materials.

Some housewives consider one of the most convenient devices with a nozzle of two corollas. Manufacturing companies did not stand aside - many blender and mixer models are available with a double nozzle for whipping and mixing products.

Philips is the manufacturer of dual nozzles for the blender. The product grinds, whips and mixes 2 times faster. A double whisk can also mix a large number of components. Dough, cream, smoothies, baby puree - all this can be prepared in a matter of minutes.

After each use, removing the nozzle is not difficult: to do this, turn the part until it clicks, and then disconnect it from the holder. Replacing the nozzle is also very simple, you must follow the same instructions: attach the part to the motor and turn until it clicks.

But sooner or later, anyone is faced with the problem of a broken corolla. Someone runs to the store to buy a new one, and someone tries to deal with the problem on their own. It is necessary to understand whether it is possible to repair the whisk after a breakdown.

• Broken bars. The reason may be the use of low-quality material in production. But most often, the rods break due to constant contact with moisture and due to improper operation. This product defect can be quickly fixed. It is enough to break the bar with the wire cutters to the very bottom. Of course, such a repair will not solve the whole problem - when you remove one bar, the nozzle quickly loses its performance. But if trouble happened during the preparation process, and there was no time to go to the store, then this method will allow you to finish what you started.
• Gearbox failure. Everything is much more complicated here. Remove the nozzle from the blender, then carefully pry off the center seam with a screwdriver. Next, you need to separate the latches, after which you can see the internal gear mechanism. All that remains to be done is to put the gears back in place. Most often, parts exit and malfunction the gearbox. After all the manipulations, parts of the gearbox must be glued well.

• Bosch;
• Philips
• Braun;
• Scarlett
• Redmond
• Moulinex.

The best choice can be called a company Philips and Bosch. By popularity with the hostesses, they can be safely put in the first place of the rating. Whisks for the blender are made of high quality metal, which contributes to the long-term operation of the product. Thorough mixing and grinding of products also depends on the strength of rods of such metal.

Manufacturers take second place. Braun, Redmond, and Scarlett. Nozzles of these companies are made of stainless steel. They are S-shaped and designed to mix a dense consistency dough.

In third place is the manufacturer from France - Moulinex. Customer reviews suggest that product quality and price are not comparable. Moulinex is famous for producing high-quality, powerful equipment with great functionality. And removable nozzles are characterized by low metal density and their cost is significantly overstated.

For a long service life, some rules for using nozzles should be observed:

• Before using a new whisk, you need to hold it in hot water for a while;
• in order to make the mixing process easy, you should first mix liquid products, then dry;
• for a thick consistency test, a high power of the device and a whisk with strong rods are required - otherwise, kneading a thick test will lead to breakage;
• in the process of preparation from time to time it is worth shaking off the adhered components;
• Do not use hot foods;
• Do not store the product in the sun;
• periodically turn off the blender, allowing the mechanism to cool.

After use, the product should be washed well with detergent. After that it is necessary to dry the whisk and put it in a dry place. Do not leave the nozzle in the water for a long time - this contributes to the formation of rust.
