Kenwood kitchen machine: working with attachments

I also bought a juicer and smoothie maker
I haven't tried the smoothie, juice made from carrots, apples, spinach and celery. The cake is dry, but unlike centrifugal (not kenwood), there is a small pulp in the juice - pieces of something, this is not a bad truth. While I like it, I wanted to do it from spinach. But I really want to try pomegranates and almond milk. The milk is scary))) but in general, because of the milk, I wanted to
The juicer is really heavy in the hand, albeit small. But somehow I don’t worry about the nest, it seems to me that everything is calculated there, and it didn’t seem like it was pressing somewhere - everything looks solid and in its place.

[Olga]

Olga, is the smoothie maker like the plastic of the cups? Dense? How are the nozzles like a food processor?

Uh, I don't know what kind of food processor, I don't have it)))) But I liked them in my hand, I have a simple electrolux smoothie and a Bosch food processor (harvester), it seems to me that Kenwood has better plastic, but no worse for sure

what was in the fridge was celery, carrots, apple, white cabbage, gratat. squeeze dry so much that it does not leave marks on the napkin, although the speed is not regulated, unlike 644 (this is definitely an extra option) soaked the almonds and try the milk. Actually, I took it for a specific purpose, I want to make a medicinal tincture according to my grandmother's recipe, she collected herbs then through a meat grinder and then through cheesecloth, it's hard for me to be so lazy.

I'm afraid of something ... write how it will turn out, if you decide. I saw on youtube, first they ground the nuts in a blender, then passed them through the auger - I think maybe so ...

I received a gift attachment! The courier brought it. Absolutely free. True, the mount did not fit my 096 (I ordered a dough sheeter). I called the company, I thought it could be changed. They said that they have all the new generation tips. I ordered an adapter adapter. They will bring him on Tuesday.

milk I'm afraid of something

yes, the net may not be able to withstand, so at the first opportunity I will buy a spare one, let it lie just in case

Owners of centrifugal juicers, please tell me, in this place everyone has no gap and the juicer rests against the body of the kitchen machine?

Old Kenwood 020 has a decent clearance.

Smoothie knife


and compared to a blender (left) and a multi-chopper (right)



cup volume 600 ml

Made a smoothie: apple, spinach, banana, protein powder, water. I like everything! everything is fine for smoothies. Here is the only thing, if you find fault sooo much, maybe not everyone will like the ergonomics of the glass, due to the fact that it is convex in the palm of your hand is not very convenient. Te in electrolux, for example, the glass in the center is concave, like a sports bottle. But I like kenwood's pot-bellied

[Osiga]

Osiga, thanks a lot for the photo, especially the knife comparison.
The knife looks most like an old blender knife.

PS if only the vertical photos were in the correct position

The blender that comes with the kitchen machine does not have a pusher (stirrer). Without it, you can't mix anything thick (pate for example). Had to order separately

[losonogov]

losonogovwhat kind of car are you talking about?
In the old version, it was not. The new one has. Now they are completing with a new version. Either undercomplete, or old series and equipment.

They also brought a smoothie maker on Saturday. Made smoothies: carrots, apple, banana + water; celery, orange, apple, banana, ginger root + water. It turned out very tasty. Individually, I wouldn't have eaten that much. In general, I am very pleased with the purchase.

is the smoothie maker like the plastic of the cups? Dense? How are the nozzles like a food processor?

It seemed to me that it is slightly denser than that of a food processor. Although the food processor has a wider bowl, and the cups are narrower, therefore it seems that it is denser.

what car are you talking about?

klv4170
The blender comes in a gray box and the model is not KAH358GL. Something different. I don't remember now.

[losonogov]

losonogov, these are old configurations. Without a stirrer, the blender is no longer released.

I also saw in Ukraine that the younger models in the office. the store is given an old blender as a gift, because they are late in their warehouse. Maybe you have such a situation.

The old blender also has a lid not under the stirrer. Look in the Handbook for pictures of knives and covers.

kah357ns blender model. with 358 mixers are the same. As I understand it, these blenders come with all kitchen machines that come with a blender (in the box)
kvl 6370, kvl 8470 s also without a stirrer judging by photos from Google

[losonogov]

losonogov, I looked, there is a photo where a blender with a stirrer, where it is simply closed with a lid. On kenwoodworld in different countries either this infa is not indicated, or it is written that there is a mixer. But a strange situation - a stirrer is a cheap part, why is it under-reported?

I don’t remember if this announcement was already on the forum. In Moscow on Avito they sell a sieve for 4999 rubles.

vis, but what a text!
In every phrase - "that's why it's so expensive"

It even became interesting: will they buy it or not))))

Girls, there were a lot of them, and the price, as agreed. Small 5.

Heh, just got my salary and set my sights on the juicer, and already "Inquire about admission". In speed! It's a shame.

Today I made almond milk in 2 stages, chopped it with a blender and let it through the auger. Everything is really fast and easy. But a small suspension in milk still remains, it should not be noticeable in a smoothie. I think I'll do this often now

[Osiga]

Osiga, but tell me, please, the nuts do not have time to get very wet in the water? An interesting life hack to grind in water, I have not come across this one yet.


About disks and covers. I didn’t find what I wanted in stores, I’ll look at Ali. In the meantime, I found an Oriflame cosmetic bag from nowhere in the house. Okay, until I find something more beautiful. Disks now take up a little more space than a book. Ideally, you want Kenwood handbags (I showed it on page 2), but I don't know where to get it

[Osiga]

Osiga, but tell me, please, the nuts do not have time to get very wet in the water? An interesting life hack to grind in water, I have not come across this one yet.

Of course, they have time - I soaked them the day before, especially so that they would get soaked. This is exactly for almond milk, on the contrary, I did not see that someone did without water, it would turn out not milk, but almond paste then in the photo what I recently did from different nuts in a food processor (I have a Bosch, but this is not important) - I dried the nuts on a baking sheet in the oven, then put everything into a food processor and chopped them to a paste.


And almond milk used to be made only in a blender - it is crushed to the state of milk, and then squeezed the cake through cheesecloth, but it is more convenient to use a screw juicer. On youtube, again, I saw videos when whole nuts were poured / poured into a screw juicer (not Kenwood) right with water, and milk came out immediately. But I do not dare to grind whole nuts in Kenwood, so first grind in a blender.

[Miranda]

Miranda, and I saw similar handbags on Friday in the store all for 50! And interesting colors .. thanks for the idea, tomorrow I will take a walk!

[zvezda]

zvezda, the main thing in height is to fit.
Is it in the fix? I will take a walk too

This is exactly for almond milk, on the contrary, I have not seen anyone doing it without water, it will turn out not milk, but almond paste then

Thanks for clarifying. I was never interested in milk from nuts, so I did not know. Live and learn. Bookmarked to study.

the main thing is to fit.

I'll go with the disk: girl_haha: no, I haven't been in the fix, it's all 50 in a chain of stores, something I didn't find with you

Girls, they delivered AT 340 to me. As promised on Friday. Mustache is free. True, the courier wanted to take 390 rubles from me. for delivery, but I told him that both the gift and the delivery are free (probably the boy got mixed up). Immediately I tried cabbage on a head of cabbage. Installs easily, rubs quickly. Yesterday grated cheese. Again, everything is easily installed. I love. So far I have tested only three discs: fine and coarse cuts, fine shredder. The food processor also has these, but I liked rubbing cheese more on the AT340.



Photos have changed places for me. These are already pies with cabbage, dough with oatmeal. Not in the subject, but did the dough. Bread was also mixed with kesha, and yogurt. I never cease to thank you all for such a friend !!! Thank you!!!

Installs easily, rubs quickly.

Agree! I hadn’t bought it for so long, the attachment was in the back of the shopping list, because there was a collective opinion that the attachment was not for every day, you were tortured to get it out, collect it. Having other attachments, she agreed.

But I didn't think so. Moreover, it stands perfectly (all sorts of others lie, do not want to stand), and it turned out to be no more than a small combine, it showed in the next topic.



It is very convenient for me to use it in everyday mode. Discs are now compact on a shelf in a bag, a nozzle at hand with a frequently used disk at hand - it's a matter of seconds to put on the machine.

I'm very happy with it, my new favorite among the attachments and must have.

Today I'm going to look for handbags in the fixprice. For me, the food processor has not moved much aside yet. Now I will still dream of a smoothie. I think by March 8, if there are discounts, I will definitely order or without discounts I will put myself in my plans.

[Barnaul]

Barnaul, you can take your time with the attachments, they tighten over time - someone sells, somewhere there is an action. It did not immediately overgrow with nozzles, and except for one for the full price, everything ended up at a promotion or at a bargain price from hands.

My goodness under the spoiler. In principle, what is, then I consider it must have

What is:
Food processor
Blender
Cubes
Multi-chopper + spare knife block
Grits mill
Dough sheeter
Sieve-wipe (992 with additional bowl and paddle 930)
Vegetable cutter
Soufleika
Old flexi
Add. bowls (I have two - metal for induction and plastic)

There is also a separate Kenwood spiralizer, one-to-one nozzle design, so it is appropriate to mention it.

No, but what I would like on occasion:
- smoothie maker
- some of the noodle cutters (most likely fettuccine)

No, but I haven't decided whether to want it or not:
- citrus press
- new juicer (maybe a separate one is better?)

No, and I definitely won't buy it, because there is a separate one or not:
- meat grinder
- two other noodle cutters
- low speed vegetable cutter (drums)
- centrifugal juicer
- press for berries
- ice cream maker
- for curly paste

.

As my friend says: I really love promotions and they appear at the right time. Thank you Miranda! I really wanted an ice cream maker, I bought it. It is idle, because they sent 956 instead of 957. I did not change it, I’m bothering with the shipment. I use the bowl. I tried to do it 2 times. The first time the bowl rose as it should, the next times it did not. But I adjusted the plastic pin there, but so far there is no desire. Yes, I want all the attachments, whatever. But I stop myself. I also bought a citrus press. I don't use it very often, but I'm happy. I'm doing limoncello, Let it be, it was also taken for the action, so I do not regret it. I love the Multi Chopper. Yes, I love everything ... I will catch stocks !!!

[Barnaul]

Barnaul, I don't want an ice cream maker, because I'm going to a freezer. There is always no room in the freezer.

As my friend says: I really love promotions and they appear at the right time.

There are definitely promotions, 3-4 times a year. Suddenly he will take you and they will repeat the action in the Globe to the nearest NG (they have a Polaris action not for the first time (they repeat it in a year, so as not in a row), so there is a hope that Kenwood will be repeated.It's a long game, but worth it.

It is immediately worth buying what you really need. The rest is to look closely.

whole nuts directly with water in a screw juicer

Duc this milk with water turns out



There is also an ice cream maker. Pts cool turns out. In the freezer, it does not eat up a lot of space because there are also food inside. It's embarrassing that after making a portion of ice cream in a plastic bowl, there are a couple of drops of salted slurry from the freezer bowl. Maybe because I pour a little more than a liter of ice cream ...

Duc this milk with water turns out

Of course, how else? After all, there is not enough water in the nut, they do it, and the store is the same, only there is still a lot of excess. Water turns milky when saturated with nuts

after preparing a portion of ice cream in a plastic bowl, there are a couple of drops of salted liquid from the bowl of the freezer

Forgive me, please, I didn't understand. What salty slurry?
Refrigerant leaking?

Yesterday I also made pomegranate juice in a screw juicer. She copes with pomegranates easily, and almost all the cake comes out on its own, even the sieve can only be rinsed (after spinach it takes longer to clean), but the juice turned out to be opaque - cloudy pink, although the taste of grains is not strongly felt (the bitterness is, if you know what I mean ). Perhaps the pomegranate was bad - Turkish, not very juicy and pinkish grains), I'll try with other pomegranates again. But I am finally very pleased with the juicer. And it is small and close at hand, unlike a centrifuge.

[Miranda]

Miranda, I look forward to your final feedback on the 340th, I wanted it exactly after your words. I looked at the bullet, but I don't want to take an additional separate device. Confused in the 340th is that some of the disks to it and to the food processor are the same.

Girls, have you tried a high-speed grater (340) on boiled vegetables? Maybe there is some secret? I tried to adapt it for assembling puff salads like Mimosa or herring under a fur coat, that is, those that need a fine grater and need to go straight to the salad bowl. I could not get. The same problem as with a cube cutter: boiled potatoes, carrots, eggs get stuck and clog the grater. Only here is the option to grate raw vegetables and then, alas, do not go into a double boiler. And the other day I accidentally bought a low-speed grater with drums with a good markdown. True, it is for the Kenwood meat grinder, but, fortunately, this is not important here, but the case is plastic and can be safely folded into the dishwasher, and the mount is suitable for old induction without an adapter. So, of all the Kenwood graters I have (and I now have a full set), the low-speed one turned out to be the most convenient option for salads made from boiled vegetables. Potatoes, of course, also stick, but cleaning a small drum is easier than a whole large grater. Well, raw onions or pickles in a salad - no problem either. I even cut the vinaigrette on it now, I have to sacrifice the traditional form of cutting, of course, because I cut vegetables into segments and chop them on a large slicer, so flat triangles are obtained, but for me it is more important that quickly. Well, and all sorts of mimosas, fur coats and other men's dreams straight into the salad bowl - no problem at all. The only thing is that you have to put the salad bowl on the stand in order to raise it closer under the mouth of the grater. But dense raw vegetables go hard at low speed, for them high speed or a processor. So, each of the graters is good at doing something of its own, and probably everyone is needed.

[anna_k]

Confused in the 340th is that some of the disks to it and to the food processor are the same.

Here in the pictures it is shown what is duplicated and what is not.
Kenwood kitchen machine: working with attachments # 190

So I was embarrassed, + what is too lazy to get. Therefore, I bought a small one, considering that 340 is good at blanks, but not every day. But for me personally, I really liked the attachment, and leaving it on the table with the disk installed (it is compact and looks ok) - just reach out. But this is a personal experience, and she took the place of a small combine.If there is no room, then there will be a different experience.

And here anna_k, very interestingly tells that, on the contrary, she preferred the bullet, but at the same time has others. Interesting comparison after using a lot I am looking for a small grating combine # 693

For me, a bullet is a separate device with a bunch of its own attachments and an expensive one. This is 15-25 thousand (depending on which additional disks to take). Although, I like it now. In short, a difficult question, but since I successfully got the 340 and liked it sooo much, I personally don't make sense of a bullet.

have you tried the speed grater (340) on boiled vegetables?

I haven't tried it yet. Only in the food processor, where the boiled vegetables were good, and the average grater is similar. But maybe for cooked it is better in the processor bowl than in a dummy container? Since in the processor, the cut immediately falls from the grater, but in 340 it goes through the release hole and is crumpled along the way? I won't try it soon, since such salads are rare, but I will try it somehow.

The same problem as with the cube cutter: boiled potatoes, carrots, eggs get stuck and clog the grater.

I have no problem with the cube cutter at all. I steam vegetables in the evening. Before going to bed, when they cool down, I put it in the refrigerator, and the next day I cut it. Cold ones cut perfectly. Plus - be sure to alternate, say, potatoes and cucumber.

That is, not overcooked + cold - goes well. Only once did I disassemble in the cooking process to remove the stuck potatoes, when I used it for the first or second time and did not know such advice. I immediately had cubes with the car (they came as a gift when buying), that is, for a long time, and since then I have never had any problems cutting vinaigrette / Olivier.

Thank you! Apparently, I do not know how to choose and cook vegetables at all)))). So I will use my entire fleet of graters, each for its own task. But toys will not stand idle! ))

Is the refrigerant leaking?

it turns out leaking somewhere at the junction of plastic and metal.



If I buy an auger squeezer, then some new version. As senior stationary Kenwood auger)

Girls, brought information, in St. Petersburg, in the shops of Prism, the action kenwood began.

[nu_sya]

nu_sya, thanks for the information. It's a pity the prices are not visible
Well, Petersburg, now send you all parcels

UPD found a link. Yes, somehow not like in the Globe for the price, but all the same.

[losonogov]

losonogov, I sympathize!

it turns out leaking somewhere at the junction of plastic and metal.

is it on top, where the cup with the refrigerant comes into contact with the plastic one?
It's sad. The nozzle is not cheap, and many complain about leaks.

[Alyona]

Of all the Kenwood graters I have (and I now have a complete set), the low-speed one turned out to be the most convenient option

Alyona I use it all the time and love it most for every day! I talked about it 7, 6, 5 .. a year ago
Miranda I congratulate you and I am very glad that 340 you got sick! It has no analogues .. Tatulya and I (here, from the forum) tested it for a long time, so it can work smoothly for a very long time! There is one nuance, on my old model (which also has beans for beans) I accidentally melted a plastic base, the speed was not right: girl_red: my husband did something .. I haven’t tried the new one yet
