Does anyone know how much a new jug is. I wouldnt mind a second jug and I heard somewhere but cant remember where that there was a way of getting one half price with a demo - or is that just a special promotion every now and then :)
-
I believe they are around $400 to buy. And yes they do have promotions at time where you can get a half price jug. I brought my second bowl and blade set at full price, the a month later they had them at half price. But a second bowl is great.
-
i am ok with one jug for the moment but if i ever think that i needed a second jug i would buy a TC instead ;D
-
I have two jugs and absolutely would recommend to everyone that if you are able to do it, you should get a second set of bowl and blades as it makes cooking different things so much easier. I use one for savoury meals and the other for desserts and baking etc. it is also handy when you have a lot of food to cook that you are not constantly using and washing the same bowl all day long and you can then alternate between the two.
-
Really Uni?!? Are you stiring ;D
I have 2 & would love a 3rd & another TM >:(
Then again I couldnt cook anymore as my freezers are bursting now.
H :)
-
Really H only 1 bowl
-
Could't manage without my second jug. I also have a second machine, but only use it for bread demos. It is packed up in carry bag , but find I can manage well with the 2 jugs.
-
If you count the two jugs that I have for my thermochef, I actually have three.....and I would still love to have another one. I'm planning to treat myself to one once I am no longer paying school fees for my son......five and a half months and counting....will grade 12 never end!!!!
I was juggling all three bowls last night making the Decadent Triple Chocolate Cheesecake (recipe from here), rich beef casserole, baked chilli beef slice and creme caramel...all for a family dinner for my daughter's birthday tonight. I can definately recommend multiple jugs (it would have been easier if my kenwood wasn't in hospital!)
-
stacelee how much r the jugs for the TC ?
-
I believe they are $90. I actually got my second one at the same time as the machine as a bonus deal. The only annoying thing is that you have to be fairly careful when washing them up as you are not supposed to immerse them in water.
-
i have never do that anyway, immerse the whole jug in water or the D/W
-
Wow Uni, all that cooking & one jug.
You amaze me
H :)
-
2 jugs are definitely the way to go. 3 would be even better. Might consider it if they come up half price again :)
-
it just works for me
grate cheese
chop parsley
grate bread
knead dough
mix crepe mixture
beat up eggs for schnitzel
beat up some cake batter
without washing the jug

If I wait for a promotion does that mean I have to have ANOTHER demo???
-
If I wait for a promotion does that mean I have to have ANOTHER demo???
Yep I'm afraid so :(
-
I'm working on four being even better than three :).....even have my husband almost convinced....either than or he will have to give in and let me have a fourth machine to play with!!! (I'm really trying but he just won't play nice with me...apparently I'm spoilt enough already (which I am))
-
I manage with 1 bowl at the moment but over Christmas and when I have baking days a second would be wonderful.
-
I'd love a second jug - but I really can't justify it. It's just because I'm lazy *grin*
-
My DD's wanted to buy me a second jug for Mothers Day, but I have said no because it is just too expensive. I will wait until there is a promo.
-
My Thermochef came with 2 jugs, and it really is very handy. I used both jugs today as I was making soup, Umami paste, roasted garlic paste and garlic prawn risotto this afternoon. I also has both on the go yesterday. It's great when you are in the middle of a recipe and the next step requires a clean and DRY bowl.
-
I just want to let you all know something. I asked the new lady I have coming to do a demo for me how much a new bowl and jug set would be and she emailed me that it would be be $395 plus delivery. In the meantime I emailed Thermomix direct. I have just received a reply from them telling me they would charge me $195 plus $7 freight. Big difference!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She has included an order form with her reply so I am going to order from Thermomix Direct. I think it definitely pays to deal with the company directly.
-
Did you email Thermomix in Australia? I'm very surprised at the difference in price ??? ???
-
Wow that Is a big difference. Why I wonder? Well worth getting another bowl at that price.
-
I am very surprised too!!! I have got a sneaking suspision she has made a mistake - I have just emailed her to confirm price and I will let you know.....
-
Wow that is the quickest response I have ever had - She made a mistake :(
She was very apologetic and thanked me for understanding. What a shame - I would have ordered immediately at that price.
Sorry guys for getting your hopes up :(
-
OOhh :( I think we all would have been ordering another bowl at that price.
-
I just rang thermomix in Australia, its $395.00 for a new bowl and blade set, with a rice basket.
