Are all jugs the same from country to country - I have the option to buy one from Portugal but not sure it will fit

I just made some brownies - I used speed 8 for about 2 minutes to mix the batter. It mixed it fine but I could kind of hear the machine revving up and down a bit.
I dont want to burn it out or anything - how do you know if its working too hard?
cheers

Every time I cook something like chicken or beef big clumps of it get stuck under the blades. I mean really stuck!
Anything I can do to avoid this? Cheers all

I bought one of these today and lost the instructions. Long story. I know the butter goes in the dish upside down and sits in water. Does anyone have the proper instructions. Thanks

Just got this book today at the class I went to - great class BTW.
Anyway this soup is really delicious although very rich. It comes out quite thick so may thin it out with some milk later on - if theres any left - I cant stop sticking my spoon in it.
I did it to the recipe exactly although I seem to have a problem following recipes LOL (even when I havent been drinking!) I was supposed to saute the bacon and take it out - Puree the potato part then put the bacon back in and stir for a few seconds. I left the bacon in but it didnt seem to make any difference to the taste.
Will definately make again.

Is there a rule of thumb as to how long all this stuff will last in the fridge? I am finding heaps of recipes - for example a bbq sauce recipe that looks good
Obviously we wont eat it all at once so how economic are these things if you have to throw them away?
Cheers

I made quite a few changes in this.
I did away with the whole fresh coconut thing and used a 245ml tin of coconut milk
I put the ginger, tomatoes, mustard, and I didnt have tamarind paste so I used lemon juice.
i took this out of the tm
Then I did step 4 and at this point I added a teaspoon of fennel seeds and 3 cardamom pods.
Then I did step 5 where I also added half a cinnamon stick and half a teaspoon of sugar.
Then I stuck everything in the tm and cooked MC off for about half an hour reverse temp 100 speed spoon. Then cooked for another hour with MC on speed spoon temp 100.
It is tasting pretty good and its still cooking. It makes quite a bit of sauce so you can leave the mc off for a while if you want less sauce
Edited to add the pic which isnt very mastercheffy as I just splooshed it in there LOL

I see the Beef madras in the Indian cookbook uses a whole coconut. I couldnt be bothered with all that not to mention I wouldnt be able to get a fresh coconut here I dont think. What could I use instead? Any suggestions would be appreciated
