就像瑞士军刀一样,搅拌机预计将做几乎所有事情,从混合汤和调味料到制作坚果黄油和蛋黄酱。幸运的是,当今的设计与苛刻的厨师保持相符,并且比以往任何时候都更能完成。有些提供预编程的选项来制作完美的冰沙,而另一些则具有锯齿状的刀片以快速擦干。最佳设计的搅拌机以直观,易于使用的格式提供这些新技术,并将简单功能与卓越的性能相结合。这是我们最喜欢的价格范围。

汉密尔顿海滩光滑倾倒
$45 athamiltonbeach.com

The Smooth Pour is ideal for the consumer looking for a reliable blender with traditional functions. And while it comes in at under $50, it’s not entirely no-frills. Its innovative Wave-Action System pulls ingredients down into the blades for super-quick and super-smooth smoothies and soups. Its steel blades consistently smash cubes into cocktail ice. The 10 settings (plus high, low, and pulse) work for basic tasks like purées though aren’t great at grinding coffee beans. Its 40-ounce glass pitcher is on the small side but has a well-designed spout that reduces drips. It comes with a three-year warranty.

Breville Ikon Hemisphere, BBL550XL
$150 atbrevilleusa.com

The Ikon Hemisphere offers creative design and engineering. A cylindrical silhouette with a rounded pitcher bottom means food won’t get trapped in corners. It has five settings (plus pulse). Its mix setting keeps hummus in blade range, producing a smooth purée in less than a minute, while its serrated blades are powerful enough to crush a half-pitcher of ice into snow in just 30seconds. The 51-ounce glass pitcher is topped with a snug-fitting rubber lid that is easily removed using its convenient ring pull. The Ikon’s flat buttons mean quick and easy cleaning. A one-year warranty is offered.

Cuisinart PowerEdge 700
$270 atmacys.com

Cuisinart的PowerEdge凭借更少但“智能”的按钮与常见的厨房任务相吻合,始终提供出色的性能。定时设置会创建完美的鸡尾酒冰和冰沙:冰块功能脉动自动打开和关闭,以获得理想的质地,而冰沙程序在30秒后关闭。搅拌机具有四个设置(加上高,低和脉搏),具有足够强大的高设置,可以在25秒内磨碎咖啡豆,以使咖啡豆在浓缩咖啡粉中磨碎,并具有使叶片与叶片接触的厚实混合物。搅拌机的玻璃投手比大多数人大,并配备了精心设计,可移动,铸造基地。它有三年保修。

Vitamix Professional Series 500
$ 600 ATsurlatable.com

专业厨师将其Vitamix Blenders的高价标签视为一项投资,而不是费用,而寻找餐厅级厨房设备的人也将。凭借不锈钢,激光切割刀片,强大的电动机和耐用的64盎司聚碳酸酯投手,这种搅拌机适合任何厨房挑战。它仅用三个脉冲将螺母碎成均匀的碎屑,将整个欧芹茎结合到厚实的鹰嘴豆泥中,芝麻菜种子。但是,尽管更多的力量是好的,但控制权甚至更好。单个表盘控制Vitamix的十个速度和各种周期。它的脉冲选项会减慢任何设置,防止热液体的溢出,并使厚厚的混合物与叶片接触。使用设置的组合制成冰沙,电动机开始缓慢地开始,速度上升到中等,并以高速结束以生产天鹅绒般的饮料。另一个很棒的功能?Vitamix也加热食物。将其设置为热型选项时,叶片会产生足够的摩擦,使其温暖到温度。 A full seven-year warranty is offered.

What to Consider

Cycles and Speeds选择具有正确速度的搅拌机 - 不一定更好。低速和脉冲设置对于将成分保持在叶片范围内很有用。多速循环提供慢速,脉冲,停顿和高速的组合。

CleanupFlat control panels mean fewer crevices for debris to fall into. Wide-bottom pitchers easily accommodate spatulas and sponges for cleaning and do away with the need to disassemble the blade from the bottom of the pitcher.

容量40盎司是标准尺寸的搅拌机投手。那些超过50盎司的人可以一次一次煮大量的汤,并为人群持有足够的牛quiris。

建造Die casting, quality materials, and long warranties likely mean greater durability. Stability at high speeds and a pitcher that fits smoothly into its base are important as well.

SafetyTimers and programmed cycles prevent overprocessing. Master switches are good at heading off accidental geysers and thwarting button-pushing toddlers.

DurabilityGlass pitchers have a reassuring heft and resist scratches, stains, and odors. Plastic pitchers pour more cleanly than glass and are lighter but can scar when processing hard ingredients and cloud with long use.

我们如何测试

我们选择了14个全尺寸的多功能台面搅拌机,并评估了它们的功率,多功能性,构造,功能和速度。为此,我们对它们进行了以下测试:

• We crushed ice and made smoothies from frozen berries to test the relative power of each blender and to assess whether frozen foods damaged or dulled the blades.
•通过将鹰嘴豆泥和整芝麻籽制成,我们衡量了每个搅拌器可以产生的糊状物的光滑和一致性。
• We put coffee beans and nuts to the test to determine how finely each blender could grind.
