I am fairly new to TM but getting used to it :o :o last night i made the apricot chicken and it was lovely however my butterfly blade thingy is now really discoloured and all the little blades on the outside edges are bent :-\ was this supposed to happen??

Sarahi68 welcome to the forum.
Your butterfly should not have been damaged at all. Did you go over speed 4 with it?
I've never made this recipe so really can't help much. If no one else can help your here I'll be very surprised. I would contact your consultant though and see what she/he says.

hey cookie-no the recipe says soft speed and reverse which is what i used(follow the recipes to the letter till i get used to it :'( ) not sure what has gone wrong. Are they expensive to replace?
-
No I don't think so, but if you followed the recipe it should be replaced under the guarantee. Call your consultant.

Hi sarahi68, welcome to the forum. If you followed the directions to a T, your butterfly shouldn't have bent although some foods could discolour it over time. They were $25 last time I heard, always pays to have a spare in case you inadvertently go over speed 4 and it gets damaged. As Cookie suggest, speak to your consultant.

Butterfly tips can get a bit bent when stirring solids (don't worry, they still work fine) but will eventually return to normal. For discolouration, pop it in the dishwasher or hot water and lots of suds.

Some of the tips actually point in different directions. Are you sure it's really bent?
