Rinse the shaft under warm water right after use to prevent food from drying on the blades. Avoid abrasive scrubbers.
Wipe the motor head with a damp cloth and ensure it's fully dry before storing to prevent electrical issues.
Apply a drop of food-grade mineral oil to the shaft connection to keep the locking mechanism smooth.
We found that models with a trigger-operated variable speed button offered the best control for large-batch blending, allowing us to start slow and increase power without splashing.
When blending hot soup, tilt the blender slightly and submerge the shaft fully to create a vortex that pulls ingredients down, reducing splatter and ensuring even blending.
Frequently asked questions
Can an immersion blender crush ice for frozen drinks?+
