The Perfect Brush for Blades on the Thermomix

[judydawn]

Thanks Chookie, took me long enough.  You need a magnifying glass to see it though!

I find many of my "kitchen essentials" in the art supply shop.   I have a stippling brush that has long, very stiff bristles that works a treat for getting those little sticky bits out of tight places.

In my opinion (humble or not  ), we are all great minds on this forum!

[Thermomixer]

Yes - if we are smart enough to have bought a TMX then we must have great minds!!

[whisks]

is this a gun forum masquerading as a thermomix forum?

[Thermomixer]

Sprung.  Good to see you around whisks.

Why does the brush not come with the TMX anyway?? I have had my brush for just a couple of weeks, and (I feel silly for saying this) I LOVE IT!  Has reduced the number of times I have to unlock the blades alot.  For a brush that only costs $5....why is it not supplied with the machine?

Amanda I give all of my customers a brush as a gift when I deliver my machine. I think they are invaluable too

What a lovely gesture on your behalf Meagan.I have never seen them forsale here in the U.K. but I saw one on e-bay when I was nosing at the price of the TM and books that everyone was talking about on here.

Bumping this for all those who didn't have the pleasure of reading it when it first hit the airwaves . . .

My consultant gave me one too as a gift, it should be included in the package.

Since this was first mooted Helene's superkitchenmachine.com  has surpassed all the brushed for the blades in my opinion. It is much better than  my gun brush which is still pretty good.

Helene's brushes are the best.

I find the Ikea brushes are great. I can normally clean in and around the blades without removing them, whereas with Helen's i find they are great if I have the blade out of the machine but too small if it's all still attached. I use the Ikea brush 90% of the time and the Helene's smaller one when I need a really good clean or there is something stuck under the blades.

Wonder, do you mean the Diska brush http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/30151479/

Or the Plastis brush? http://www.ikea.com/au/en/catalog/products/30166126/ or a different one?

I'm hoping to get to Ikea soonish & I'll add it to my list of things to look at.
