What you need to know when choosing food processors and shredders?
Types of food processors and shredders
Shredders are compact devices consisting of a working bowl (usually no more than 1 liter) and a drive. The kit usually includes a utility knife, an emulsion nozzle and one or two graters. Usually, grinders are used to process small portions of products: cheese, nuts, herbs, berries, as well as to make mashed potatoes and simple sauces.
The shredders take up very little space, unlike food processors, which can have two electric sockets for the bowl and blender at the same time. Combines without a blender differ from grinders in a large number of attachments and functions, as well as in the presence of a neck for adding products to the container without opening the bowl.
Characteristics and parameters of food processors and shredders
Built-in
Food processor built into the set.
The food processors built into the worktop can be installed separately from the hob or belong to the Domino modular series, which are narrow modules that combine on one table. In addition to the built-in food processor, Domino can include a deep fryer, grill, steamer and other surfaces.
Blender
The presence of a blender in the food processor kit.
A blender is a tall jug with curved knives at the bottom that is used to mix any liquid (such as pancake dough), make baby food, and vegetable or fruit puree. Its primary purpose is the preparation of various cocktails: knives in a matter of seconds can mix, for example, milk and fruits into a homogeneous mass. The blender jar can be made from different materials.
Meat grinder
The presence of a nozzle for minced meat in the harvester set.
This attachment ensures that the combine operates in a meat grinder mode. The meat grinder attachment practically does not differ from a conventional screw meat grinder either in power or in efficiency. And to that, and to the other additionally (or in a set), you can purchase various knives, perforation grates and all kinds of attachments.
It should be noted that the meat grinder attachment is a rather expensive component. Therefore, in some models, buyers are usually offered a choice: either the combine is supplemented with a meat grinder or a universal juicer.
Juicer
The presence of a juicer in the kit and its type.
The kit may include a citrus press, a multi-purpose juicer, or both.
The capacity of a citrus juicer averages 0.8-1 liters per minute. The principle of operation is the same as that of a conventional citrus press: a half of a fruit is applied to a rotating nozzle with a ribbed surface and strongly pressed by hand. The juice released during this flows down through the holes into the bowl.
The universal (centrifugal) juicer is suitable for juicing various fruits, berries and vegetables. The amount of juice squeezed out depends on the loading volume of the working bowl. Cooking time is individual. In general, it is no more than that of conventional juicers. The disadvantage of a food processor with a juicer attachment is that there is a lot of waste when juicing. If a conventional juicer gives up to 85% of the juice at the output, then the combine squeezes out a maximum of 50%.
If you often make juices or make preparations for the winter, it is better to purchase a multi-purpose juicer separately.
Melnichka
The presence of a device for grinding coffee, various cereals and other products in small portions in the food processor kit.
The mill is a small container with a sharp two-bladed knife at the bottom.
In such a container it is convenient to grind spices, herbs, nuts, garlic, etc. mix with others).
Body material
The material from which the body of the food processor is made.
The body can be made of plastic or stainless steel.
Like most kitchen appliances, food processors are mostly made of plastic. This is a modern, durable and lightweight material, easy to care for, in addition, the color variety of models is pleasantly surprising.
Expensive models are traditionally dressed in stainless steel, matte or shiny. It is better to opt for a matte finish that will not leave fingerprints or drips from food. In fact, stainless steel here does not have any practical advantages and is acquired mainly because of its beautiful and solid appearance.
Bowl material
Food processor bowl material.
The bowl can be made of glass, plastic or stainless steel.
The glass container allows you to observe the grinding and mixing process, but if dropped to the floor, it is likely to break. The stainless steel bowl is opaque, but the strongest and most durable. The disadvantage is the high cost.
Plastic bowls are considered the most practical and inexpensive, they can be either transparent or not, they can withstand heavy loads and are quite cheap.
Number of speeds
The number of fixed speeds for the food processor motor.
Most food processors are equipped with a rotary speed switch for the attachments, allowing you to select the desired intensity of work. Some combines have step speed control, while other models have smooth speed adjustment. As a rule, for various modes of operation (meat grinder, juicer, blender, etc.), certain speed ranges are provided, which are indicated in the instructions for the combine or in the drawings on the body of the device. Typically, high speeds are used for chopping food and low speeds for mixing.
Bowl capacity
The total volume of the mixing bowl.
It is necessary to distinguish between the total volume and the working capacity of the bowl (more often manufacturers indicate the total). Depending on the density and type of food, you can load a different weight of food into the working container. For example, a bowl with a total volume of 1.5 liters is designed to process approximately 2 kg of dry food, 1.5 liters of liquid and 750 g of dough. Moreover, there is not only a maximum, but also a minimum capacity. For example, in very large bowls, processing small portions of food in a common working bowl is not very convenient and uneconomical, therefore they are usually equipped with small grinders.
Power
The maximum amount of energy consumed by the unit.
The efficiency and speed of the food processor depends on the maximum power. In this case, the power of the combine must correspond to the volume of the working bowl, and, consequently, to the amount of product processed at one time. That is, it is not the power value itself that is important, but the ratio of power and volume of the bowl.The following ratios of power and volume are optimal: 300 W - 1.5 l; 400 W - 2 L; 700 W - 3 HP
If two combines with the same bowl capacity have different power ratings, then the more powerful model is preferable, since it will work harder and faster.
Pulse mode
The presence of a pulse mode in the control unit of the food processor.
This function is intended for a short-term acceleration of the normal operating mode of the combine, it is turned on at the end of cooking for a speedy and high-quality end of work. The short-term mode allows you to quickly puree especially soft and delicate foods. Also, the pulse mode is used for fast and uniform crushing of solid products (nuts, ice, etc.).
