    Save $25 off your purchase of any Void-Systems Vacuum Blending kit by using coupon code DJ25 at bit.ly/voidvacuum
    In this episode, you will learn how you can now vacuum blend in your classic Vitamix blender (non-Ascent or Venturist aka SELF-DETECT blenders).
    First, you will learn about the difference using vacuum blenders makes and why John does not like the Vitamix Ascent blenders with SELF-DETECT technology.
    You will learn about the two options that are being offered for sale to upgrade your Vitamix into a vacuum blender: The Biochef Kit and the Void-Systems Kit. You will learn about what is included in each of these vacuum blender upgrade kits, you will also learn about the warranty length, customer service of each of the companies, and where these are made.
    Next, you will discover in a series of 3 tests if the void systems vacuum blender kit or the Biochef vacuum blending kit is more effective in blending: Dry Items, Smoothie Items, and Blackberry Seeds.
    You will see how these two vacuum blender upgrades will grind up a few ounces of flax seeds into powder and learn which carafe and blade design is more effective at grinding flax seeds into powder and which leaves larger unblended particles.
    Next, you will learn if the Void-Systems Vitamix Blender Upgrade Kit or the Biochef Vitamix Vacuum Blending solution kit works better at blending to a smaller particle size when John blends water, leafy greens, and almonds.
    Next, you will learn if the Void-Systems Vitamix Blender Upgrade Kit or the Biochef Vitamix Vacuum Blending solution kit works better at blending blackberry seeds and coconut water.

    John's the best for sales and extremely informative UA-cam content. No one knows more than John in this area. My comment is directed at both John and comment readers. Haven't seen John mention the Tribest DynaPro vacuum blende recently. I've made 6 purchases from John including 2 DynaPro's and can't recommend it enough. Especially if a person doesn't have a Vitamix to start with buying a DynaPro is definitely the way to go. 15 year warranty.

    • @discountjuicers
      @discountjuicers  Рік тому +3

      The Dynapro DPS-2250 is a wonderful vacuum blender for sure. It has its own set of pros and cons. The warranty is a huge plus for sure. For people that own a vitamix or blended they may want to consider the biochef or void kit that will cost much less than a new dynapro.
      I compare the biochef to dynapro at ua-cam.com/video/7028w2khqw0/v-deo.html
      and the void systems kit to dynapro at ua-cam.com/video/P5kuLz8Oun4/v-deo.html
      so people can the differences.

      Is Dynapro better than a Vitamix quality wise? I’ve never heard of Dynapro before. How long have you had it for? I need a blender and want one with a vacuum now. I got the new Vitamix Ascend but have time to return it now that I know about vacuum blending. Just don’t know how good the Dynapro is compared to Vitamix quality wise.

    Hi John, did you notice the berry blend on the biochef was a much darker color than the void with the vitamix carafe? Why do you think there was such a color difference? More oxidation on the vitamix carafe due to finer blending?

    • @discountjuicers
      @discountjuicers  Рік тому

      YES. The reason why in my opinion: the darker color is due to the anthocyanins in the berries. The void system was lighter because the berry seeds were also blended INTO the smoothie instead of being left whole, because they were blended, it made the mixture lighter in color as the berry seeds (slight fat) diluted the anthocyanins.

    Hey John thanks for all your amazing content, I’ve been watching your videos for years and continue to! I purchased the biochef vacuum pump attachment a couple of years ago after watching one of your videos but before the 2 year warranty was up it quit working it doesn’t even turn on. I just want to tell you about my experience with vitally 4 health who sells them has not been good. I’ve been trying to get a warranty replacement for 5 months and they just keep giving me the run around and excuse after excuse why it hasn’t shipped, it’s been a terrible experience and I will never purchase anything from them ever again!

    My BioChef carafe, purchased 10/15/19 started to smell like smoke after a few years while running on the Vitamix because I believe the blade/bearings were getting overheated, possibly? So I quit using it. I love the pump though, I vacuum seal mason jars along with the Food-Saver lid. I lost the accessory for the pump that allows it to seals bags. And I keep all my receipts except I can’t find the one for the BioChef carafe/pump I purchased from Discount Juicer. Sounds like BioChef wouldn’t honor the warranty even if I had my receipt. Sad 😢

    Blendtec with void lid
    Void blender with void lid
    Vitamin with void lid
    Which would you choose John. Tribest, simply because the power and warranty? Or all void to keep it simple?

    • @discountjuicers
      @discountjuicers  Рік тому +1

      Tough choice. Each option has its own set of pros and cons. I personally own all the options myself, and like each of them for different reasons. Watch my latest video: VOID vs Dynapro ua-cam.com/video/P5kuLz8Oun4/v-deo.html so you can see the difference between dynapro vs void lid on vitamix/void base. (carafe is the same) I would NOT get the void blender with lid, as they have too short of a warranty. I probably would go with the void + vitamix base since I like the square carafe, and it left less grit in the strainer in the above test. The blendtec has a dull blade and would not blend as well, but I like the power of the base, as well as their square carafe.

    John, I bought the Void lid and bags for my Blentec after watching your video's and the difference in taste and texture is amazing. My question is, would it be ok to use my Breville food processor slicing blade to prep my vegetables as I make a whole weeks worth of juice (using my foodsaver to vacuum the juice) and the time it takes me to prep all the vegetables with a knife can take some time to do. Thanks.

    • @discountjuicers
      @discountjuicers  11 місяців тому +2

      Yes, if you want to use your food process instead of a knife to precut produce for blending, you could do that for sure. I would recommend AGAINST using the S blade, as it causes a lot of oxidation. I would recommend using the slicing disc, that will cause less oxidation than the shredding disc. Also run the food processor at the lowest rpm if possible.

    Frustrating as they pretend each time that they are so surprised that I have had issues, but clearly even you had issues three times.
    Hopefully this next time they replace or repair it works.
    I had just paid to send the lid back, and when they repaired it and send it to me it was faulty the first time that I tried it again. Straight out of the box fail on the second issue now.

      wow. thats really interesting. mine has always taken at least 60-90 seconds. I will have to check with some other friends to see how long theirs takes. I think I also need to test for vacuum pressure, as maybe some pumps don't suck as much vacuum as others. I'm not sure.

      @discountjuicers  Рік тому +1

      Update: I was at my friends house that purchased the biochef several years ago and his pump took 75 seconds on an empty carafe. So it appear they may be some variation on the time it takes for it to pump down. I personally believe 45 seconds is too short. I will continue to test OPP (other peoples pumps!)

Will subscribe and like if you respond.

    • @discountjuicers
      @discountjuicers  4 місяці тому

      I would not sell the vitamix to buy the void blender kit. Why? the vitamix has a much better motor, assembled in the USA with a LONG warranty. The void blender while only $100 more, only has a 1 yr warranty, and I guarantee it will NOT last as long as your vitamix motor. If you didnt have a vitamix already it might make sense to get the void blender so you wouldnt have to buy the void vitamix kit and a vitamix.

    I own a stainless steel carafe by Vitamix. For all the health benefits of vacuum blending, I’m surprised that Void and Biochef are making their carafes out of plastic.
    “Do BPA-free plastics such as Tritan, have human hormone-disrupting effects? And what about BPS and BPF?
    BPS and BPF seem to have antiandrogenic anti-male hormone effects that are similar to those of BPA. So when you’re assured you shouldn’t worry because your sales slip is BPA-free, the thermal paper may just contain BPS instead. What’s more, BPS receipts may contain up to 40 percent more BPS than they would have contained BPA. So BPA-free could be even worse. In fact, all BPA-replacement products tested to date released chemicals having reliably detectable EA, estrogenic activity.
    This includes Tritan, which is specifically marketed as being estrogen-activity-free. In one experiment, researchers dripped an extract of Tritan on human breast cancer cells in a petri dish, and it accelerated their growth. This estrogenic effect was successfully abolished by an estrogen blocker, reinforcing it was an estrogen effect.”

    ☹ Inspired by John I bought the Biochef carafe + vacuum pump for my Vitamix (3 HP version). I am dissatisfied with the carafe. When making e.g. almond milk (just 2½ oz in weight of almonds) initially I run the blender on variable speed (5 - 8) and it causes the machine to vibrate heavily. When I switch to high speed it does not vibrate but it sounds as if the (quite powerful) motor does not run smooth, it being strained, to the point that I get nervous. Therefore I do NOT recommend the Biochef kit for Vitamix.
