Thanks Henry! One thing I like about your Vitamix videos is you show the whole cycle. Many other people, including the Vitamix people, skip the blending and just show it when it's done. Seeing the whole cycle is great, I think anyway. Love you showing various recipes!
I just ordered the 750; it should be arriving within the week. After watching your video, I am sure that I picked the right Vitammix for me. There are so many models and packages to choose from! Please keep making VM videos; this was so informative.
Thank you for explaining how the Vitamix works. I had a negative feeling about having to use the tamper. Now that I understand how the machine works, I bought 2 of them. One for myself and one for my daughter.. I'm excited about getting healthy.
Thanks for the video, Henry. It was very informative and provided audio/visuals of how these two machines function and compare. I think I'll be picking up a Vitamix in the coming month.
Thank you so much for this video! You gave an excellent explanation/demonstration on cavitation, vortex, and use of the tamper. I'm looking at buying the 750 pro series model or Vitamix The Quiet Onein the next few months. This really helps me get a feel for the real life usage and what to expect. Thanks again!
Awesome video!! Best demo I've seen thus far & I can't wait until mines arrives soon. I ordered a different model (Vitamix Creations Elite) but I feel the tamper is a wonderful accessory as well. Thanks for posting...
You are very kind. Thanks so much. I really do have fun making these videos. I do have an upcoming special video that I will post but I'm just not sure when. I am still working on it. Thanks for watching and your great support.
Well the recipe that the 750 comes with is completely geared towards the 750. Many recipes will call for the presets to be used and the rest using the variable control. The included DVD is also very good and has some nice easy recipes showing you how to use it step by step. I'm excited for you!
Oh, believe me, I will be sending some questions your way. Like you, I was taught to cook by my family (mom was a Home Economics instructor), so I absolutely LOVE a good kitchen appliance. I literally researched this to death before choosing Vitamix and then making the plunge for the 750. There aren't any cookbooks geared for it yet, but perhaps we will be a part of that future; it is new, and almost revolutionary in design. It had me with the physics behind the vortex!
Yippy I get my vitamix professional 750 for valentines day...im so excited Yay .. you are great at explaining this and you've earned yourself a new Subbie..I also have a juicer so im ready ... im sooo excited
Hi Luseeedwards. Thanks so much for watching. I'm very happy to help. You mentioned that you might be interested in the Quiet One? I am going to send you a direct message so I can further explain that machine. That was the exact Vitamix I was interested in at first until I spoke to the Vitamix executive of their commercial line of products. There is a huge difference. I will give you the insight. Watch for your inbox. :-)
Hi Leftofcentr. Thanks so much for dropping by. The 5200 is a very good machine. There are a few models with presets like the 750, however if you are now set on the 750 please let me know if you decide to purchase it through Vitamix directly. If you purchase through me I can provide you a special offer. If you have other questions please feel free to ask. No pressure here. :-)
Hi, i have the vitamix creations, i believe its their base model, BUT i'm so pleased with it. My green smoothies taste way better when they're made in it. My hummus and guacamole... I enjoyed your video and the information provided was well received. Thank you for taking the time to share.
What up Vitamix bud? Just got my new 7500 today.I'm a 12 yr Vitamix owner. My first blend was amazing .To all the people watching ,you get a 7 yr warranty with this unit and for $75.00 more they'll make it 10 years .Great video.
Hi Perrynm, you're already on the right track freezing your veggies and I will recommend that you freeze spinach and kale if they are part of your diet, they last long in the freezer. Apples can be frozen, however they have a pretty long shelf life on the counter or fridge. In the freezer the texture changes and they are best for baking. Bananas however should definitely be frozen for longevity when they turn brown or freckle. Perfect for smoothies and to make ice cream and they last for weeks.

Thanks Henry for all your help.... I have been researching the best blenders for a while now. I have a blendtec blender and had a vitamix years ago that I burned up. I am going to order the one you used on this video. You have been a huge help on my vitamix pick!!!! I really appreciate all the time you take in researching and making these videos.... You have helped our family health quest.....
Hey Congrats on your new Vitamix purchase. I'm guessing you meant Pro 300 vs. Pro 750? If so then yes, the only difference between the two are preprogrammed presets. The Pro 750 does has improved styling and is the only one available between the two in Brushed Stainless finish.
Haha, I'm always nervous to do videos. May not seem like it but I am. That's why you don't see me much in the videos. In fact I've only done one video showing myself. You'll be fine, it's so much fun. In the mornings, rather than cereal I love my Oatmeal Banana Green smoothie. Almond milk or soy, banana, 4 tbs rolled oats (not instant oats) 2 cups of spinach and/or kale. During the day I like my green apple, orange, lime, spinach and kale smoothie. I put greens in all of them.
Hey aquav5! How are you? Thanks for hanging out with me. You bought the creme' de la creme' Vitamix. Congrats!!! Please stay tuned, I have a new video on it's way that may further address any questions you have. Thanks for watching.
This was one of the best informational videos I have seen and I have been researching these! . You demonstrated and explained things I never knew before. I will be sure to visit your website. Thanks so much!
Hi dohczz! I do make my own flour as I make cookies quite often as well as the pancakes I made in my "Look What You Can Do With A Vitamix" video. I use the Dry Blade container multiple times in that video. I will send you a message in your UA-cam inbox to address your question about purchasing one. Thanks much.
Hey Frankie G!! Good to hear from you. Congrats on that 7500. You got a nice machine. You WILL be happy with it, no doubt bro. If you ever need accessories such as the Dry Grains Container let me know. I am a Vitamix affiliate and I can get you a deal if you order through me.
Hi Debra! Congrats on your VM 750 purchase. I am very happy for you. I can assure you it will be life-changing. Once it arrives and you open the box and make your first drink you will be so happy you made this decision. There are many Vitamix models, most of them are separated by their included recipe books. Most of the machines are the same except for the 750. Let me know if you have questions once you get it. Thanks for your support.
Hi Jim! Yes, the current 32oz wet blade container that fits the classic Vitamix 5200 will also fit the VM 750. If you're interested in getting one please let me know, I can provide you a special offer.
Great video! I'm itching to get me one and I will probably get one ths month when I find a good deal. I was watching videos from blenderlady and she blends for 2 minutes because she says it pulverizes the enzymes to the max so that you get the most out of your smoothie drink. Of course she adds alot of ice so it doesn't make it into soup.
The 750 is the next generation of Vitamix. The Turbo Blend VS is the older series. The next generation of Vitamix offers the new wider and low profile blending container that fits under most cabinets and it offers more efficient blending due to the wider design and larger blade. It offers a 4" blade size vs. the 3" blade size on the Turbo Blend VS. The next generation also has a quiet motor and a new cooling system to handle longer blending times and heavier ingredients.
Hey Chavitavb! That is awesome!! How did you do that? The Wildside Jar wouldn't fit on my Vitamix 750. It must only fit on the VM 5200 like yours or did you mod it? I didn't even know the drive sockets were the same between Vitamix and Blendtec. I totally enjoyed your video. Tell me how you did it, I may give you a shout on my next video. :-)
Hi NewbieSoaper! Thank you so much for your kind words. That's great to hear that you're happy with your VM Creations. Every single day I wake up I am so looking forward to making something great in my Vitamix. Stay tuned I have a special new video coming up this week.
Hi Kathiekp! I completely agree with you about many videos editing the blending cycle. Watching the actual blending is just as much fun as seeing the final result. I have a website coming up next week with much more content then you see in my videos. I will be announcing it soon. Please stay tuned. :-)
I have a 750 on order-Pearl grey. The metal finish 750 are no longer available. Just black or Pearl grey. I have an Ascent-but just wanted a 750 anyway. I enjoy using my Ascent 3500 Gold Lable in gold color. I also obtained a “gold” 48 oz jug to match! It works well like the other VM jars. The 750 should low me to use my Older jars I can’t use on the Ascent.
Thank you so much for watching and congrats on the getting the Gold Label Vitamix. Please checkout my more recent videos. The quality is better and many more recipes.
@@BlendingWithHenry I have. been using my new blender with its org jug that came with it. Today I mixed my breakfast shake in the gold jar. It does look nice on the Gold Gold Label Ascent!
Cavitation occurs not just on blenders-happens with boat and ship propellers. The cavitation can be destructive to ship and boat props. It erodes the blades. The VM blades are made of SS this is harder than the bronze boat and ship props are made of. The VM blades forms the cavity where ingredients aren’t going into the blades-hence the tamper or stomper to break the cavitation allowing items to get into the blades. For boats and ships you have to slow down on the engine throttle.
Cavitation is something different. In a blender like this, cavitation is something desirable as it helps breaking down the cell structure of the ingredients. The phenomenon in the bottom is simply an air pocket or what some call "ventilation" when talking about a propeller in water, which happens when air is drawn in faster than liquid, unlike the formation of steam bubbles due to low pressure zones on the trailing edge and tips of the blades, just like cavitation of a boat propeller. When these bubbles burst, they create supersonic shock waves that has power enough to break down cell structures of the ingredients which help liquefy the content. The forces of these bubbles bursting is actually powerful enough to impact the metal surface of the blades. It can over time slowly erodes the blade edges and tips, a phenomenon known as "Cavitation Burns". Otherwise, great explanation of the mechanics - pretty spot on:-I
Before learning about the Vitamix I had the same feeling as you did about the Tamper. I think the concerns have been that Blendtec has advertised in the past that they don't need a tamper. They no longer advertise this, especially after they have designed their new Twister Cup that works similarly to the Vitamix/Tamper combo. It's $120 extra though. I think they were a bit afraid to admit that the tamper is a very powerful and necessary tool.
Hi Henry : ) I have been researching the Vitamix and others as well. I am now focused on the Vitamix but am torn between which model to buy. We live on a boat so power is an important component. This doesn't appear to be a problem. I am focused on the Pro 750, Pro 500 (refurbished), or the 6300 refurbished. Can you email me with your recommendations? Thanks so much!
I just ordered the 300 series which is the same as the 7500 without the presets. I am interested in the dry grain container, what type of deal can u get for me? I see it listed around $130, which is pricey. Secondly, do you make your own flour for homemade bread making as I am interested in doing that also. thanks
Henry, I have watched many of your videos, they're all wonderful! You are down to earth and know how to explain and demonstrate the Vitamix. I have been looking into purchasing one, but I am confused over exactly what constitutes refurbished or reconditioned. Could you elaborate on this? Keep doing what you're doing, much love.
Wanda Lunski Hi Wanda! Please visit me at www.blendingwithhenry.com and press the MAIL icon near the top. Send me an email mentioning your interest in a Vitamix, which model you are interested in and I will help you and go over the full definition of Certified Reconditioned.
Hey HoochTank, you're welcome. Thanks for dropping by. Please feel free to ask any questions before purchasing. When you are ready please support me by purchasing it through me, I can offer you free shipping from the Vitamix website. :-)
Yes, in fact, one smoothie and one soup. The smoothie is called Fruit Mix Smoothie and the soup is Black Bean Soup. Both are on my website. I will send the links to each one to your UA-cam inbox asap. Even if you're not a fan of Black beans you will love the Black Bean Soup. It's healthy, rich and delicious. It's like a creamy mexican soup with a kick and easy to make. It's a winner!
Hi! I've been researching Vitamix since I had a smoothie at my friend's house a few weeks ago. I was sold on the 5200, but now that I've seen your videos, I'm really in love with the 750. My husband is going to kill me. (Haha). Thanks for the information!
Both blenders are fantastic. You can't go wrong with either however if you have specific blending needs Vitamix may suit you better. It's more of an All-purpose blender which is why chefs use them.
hi! i have been looking in to purchasing a vitamix but there are so many different models and i am really not sure what the difference is between each model other than price. have you tried other models other than the 750 are they just as good?
Hi Henry! May I ask you, does this model come with a tamper and/or plus the container for dry ingredients, or should you purchase them separately? Also do they include any recipe book in the box? Thank you. I'm in love with this model, and I'm seriously thinking of buying one, though it's so expensive in Europe..
Hi dreacava206! I've tried just about every current model of Vitamix. I have one other one as well besides the 750. My video called 10 questions in 10 minutes answers your question about different models and you can visit my website called Blending with Henry dot com. The section labeled "Questions people are asking Henry" also address this on question number 2. Most of the models are separated by their recipe book. If you purchase a Vitamix thru me I can get you a special offer. Let me know.
Hi Juilkca, I know the Blenderlady, she's awesome. It really depends on what you're blending. Most blending times for the Vitamix shouldn't last more than 30-60 seconds. Over-blending certain ingredients can actually cause oxidation and destroys many of the important nutrients. For smoothies your blending time shouldn't last longer than 60 seconds. If you purchase a Vitamix through me I can provide you special perks. Let me know and I will give you that information. Thanks for your support!
Do u have to make larger batch in this shorter jar or can it be same as the tall 64oz jar? I am trying to buy the 750 with shorter jar but thinking only can make larger batch and not small
+Shweta Desai You do have to use more ingredients when using the shorter container because it's wide in shape with a larger blade. I always recommend to invest in the 32oz wet container as a companion.
+Shweta Desai No difference. The 2.0 hp machines use the tall 64oz container with a 3" blade. The 2.2 hp machines use the shorter/wider 64oz container with the larger 4" blade. The extra hp is to drive the larger blade. Blend quality is 100% the same.
Henry PJ Honestly, by that logic if you have a smoothie with 99% fruit, but 4 out of 6 ingredients are green, then it's a "green smoothie". In reality that's a fruit smoothie. Which is perfectly fine. Fruit smoothies are delicious - and a little greens are better than none at all. But if you're looking for a nutrient dense smoothie, you need to totally reverse the volume of the sugary foods with the volume of the greens here. Just my opinion, no expert.
Green is green whether or not it's fruit or veggies. However if you only qualify a true green smoothie as one with hardly any sugar then you should take a look at my detox smoothie I make every morning. I have a video for it in this link. You may skip to time frame 2:00 to get right to the ingredients. @watch?v=dOhYE0RQkDM
Did you order it using my Affiliate code to waive the shipping charges? If so let me know. I have an extra special perk for my viewers who purchase their machine through me.
I love that you explan how the machine really work's and what the tamper is really for :)
Thanks Henry! One thing I like about your Vitamix videos is you show the whole cycle. Many other people, including the Vitamix people, skip the blending and just show it when it's done. Seeing the whole cycle is great, I think anyway. Love you showing various recipes!
Thanks for sharing what you've learned about the Vitamix, I didn't know that much about the vortex & tamper. This was very helpful!
Great video Henry. Thanks a lot
very good video , thank you for making thing clear ,
I just ordered the 750; it should be arriving within the week. After watching your video, I am sure that I picked the right Vitammix for me. There are so many models and packages to choose from! Please keep making VM videos; this was so informative.

I'm looking at buying the 750 pro series model or Vitamix The Quiet Onein the next few months. This really helps me get a feel for the real life usage and what to expect.
Thanks again!
Vitamix needs to be paying you. Very good video and information. I'm sold. Can't wait to get mine.
Awesome video!! Best demo I've seen thus far & I can't wait until mines arrives soon. I ordered a different model (Vitamix Creations Elite) but I feel the tamper is a wonderful accessory as well. Thanks for posting...
You're very welcome!!
You are very kind. Thanks so much. I really do have fun making these videos. I do have an upcoming special video that I will post but I'm just not sure when. I am still working on it. Thanks for watching and your great support.
Well the recipe that the 750 comes with is completely geared towards the 750. Many recipes will call for the presets to be used and the rest using the variable control. The included DVD is also very good and has some nice easy recipes showing you how to use it step by step. I'm excited for you!
Oh, believe me, I will be sending some questions your way. Like you, I was taught to cook by my family (mom was a Home Economics instructor), so I absolutely LOVE a good kitchen appliance. I literally researched this to death before choosing Vitamix and then making the plunge for the 750. There aren't any cookbooks geared for it yet, but perhaps we will be a part of that future; it is new, and almost revolutionary in design. It had me with the physics behind the vortex!
Beautiful demonstration Henry! Thank you!.
Yippy I get my vitamix professional 750 for valentines day...im so excited Yay .. you are great at explaining this and you've earned yourself a new Subbie..I also have a juicer so im ready ... im sooo excited

Hi Perrynm, you're already on the right track freezing your veggies and I will recommend that you freeze spinach and kale if they are part of your diet, they last long in the freezer. Apples can be frozen, however they have a pretty long shelf life on the counter or fridge. In the freezer the texture changes and they are best for baking. Bananas however should definitely be frozen for longevity when they turn brown or freckle. Perfect for smoothies and to make ice cream and they last for weeks.

Yes, in fact, one smoothie and one soup. The smoothie is called Fruit Mix Smoothie and the soup is Black Bean Soup. Both are on my website. I will send the links to each one to your UA-cam inbox asap. Even if you're not a fan of Black beans you will love the Black Bean Soup. It's healthy, rich and delicious. It's like a creamy mexican soup with a kick and easy to make. It's a winner!
Hi! I've been researching Vitamix since I had a smoothie at my friend's house a few weeks ago. I was sold on the 5200, but now that I've seen your videos, I'm really in love with the 750. My husband is going to kill me. (Haha). Thanks for the information!
Hello henri.a preferring vitamiks 750 to blendtek? vitamiks what hath before blendek? blendtek are 3 horsepower, 1500 watts and 1200 watts vitamiks.
Both blenders are fantastic. You can't go wrong with either however if you have specific blending needs Vitamix may suit you better. It's more of an All-purpose blender which is why chefs use them.
I got your email today but I couldn't quite make out what you were saying. Thanks for inquiring.
i just ordered a Vitamix Pro 300,is there any difference between this one and the 300 besides the control settings?
GREEN SMOOTHIE!
Thanks Andrew! The Vikings are okay but my heart belongs to the Niners!!
Hi henry do u guys do payment plans and do u have the vitamix 750's available now?
hi! i have been looking in to purchasing a vitamix but there are so many different models and i am really not sure what the difference is between each model other than price. have you tried other models other than the 750 are they just as good?
Thanks man, any recipes you recommend for my first blend?
750. 7500 which is better
At this point I would recommend choosing the Pro 750. Newer Vitamix models like the Explorian offer the same as the 7500.
Hi Jim, I am sending you a message to your UA-cam inbox to address your question.
Hi Henry! May I ask you, does this model come with a tamper and/or plus the container for dry ingredients, or should you purchase them separately? Also do they include any recipe book in the box? Thank you. I'm in love with this model, and I'm seriously thinking of buying one, though it's so expensive in Europe..
HEY MAN IS THE VITAMIX 750 OR 3500 BETTER THAN THE WOLF GOURMET BLENDER?
I have not reviewed the Wolf blender.
hi, do you work for vitamix, please?
Hi dreacava206! I've tried just about every current model of Vitamix. I have one other one as well besides the 750. My video called 10 questions in 10 minutes answers your question about different models and you can visit my website called Blending with Henry dot com. The section labeled "Questions people are asking Henry" also address this on question number 2. Most of the models are separated by their recipe book. If you purchase a Vitamix thru me I can get you a special offer. Let me know.
Hi Juilkca, I know the Blenderlady, she's awesome. It really depends on what you're blending. Most blending times for the Vitamix shouldn't last more than 30-60 seconds. Over-blending certain ingredients can actually cause oxidation and destroys many of the important nutrients. For smoothies your blending time shouldn't last longer than 60 seconds. If you purchase a Vitamix through me I can provide you special perks. Let me know and I will give you that information. Thanks for your support!
Your videos are great. I'd give them 2 thumbs up if I could. Thanks.
Do u have to make larger batch in this shorter jar or can it be same as the tall 64oz jar? I am trying to buy the 750 with shorter jar but thinking only can make larger batch and not small
+Shweta Desai You do have to use more ingredients when using the shorter container because it's wide in shape with a larger blade. I always recommend to invest in the 32oz wet container as a companion.
+Blending With Henry is the 2.2 ho motor vs. 2.0 hp mother does it make difference
+Shweta Desai No difference. The 2.0 hp machines use the tall 64oz container with a 3" blade. The 2.2 hp machines use the shorter/wider 64oz container with the larger 4" blade. The extra hp is to drive the larger blade. Blend quality is 100% the same.
This is a "green smoothie" in COLOR alone. That was a really measly amount of veg compared to sugar (fruit).
4 out of 6 of the ingredients are green. Kale (which a lot of it was used), spinach, pears and green apple. That's considered a green smoothie.
Henry PJ Honestly, by that logic if you have a smoothie with 99% fruit, but 4 out of 6 ingredients are green, then it's a "green smoothie". In reality that's a fruit smoothie.
Which is perfectly fine. Fruit smoothies are delicious - and a little greens are better than none at all. But if you're looking for a nutrient dense smoothie, you need to totally reverse the volume of the sugary foods with the volume of the greens here. Just my opinion, no expert.
Green is green whether or not it's fruit or veggies. However if you only qualify a true green smoothie as one with hardly any sugar then you should take a look at my detox smoothie I make every morning. I have a video for it in this link. You may skip to time frame 2:00 to get right to the ingredients. @watch?v=dOhYE0RQkDM
Henry PJ Okay awesome. In any event, it's a good video and I ordered a vita mix this morning so i'll keep your advice about the "accelerator" in mind.
Did you order it using my Affiliate code to waive the shipping charges? If so let me know. I have an extra special perk for my viewers who purchase their machine through me.
Hey Henry check out my vitamix video lol. I made the vitamix into a vitatec
Don't put your fingers in the blender all the time dude )) That's scary ))
KARAB1NAS He put them in only when it was off.
