New thermomix

I've ordered a TMX 7. Hope It goes ok.

I can guarantee it will be more than just ok.

Mich, you will love it. So many little things that are improved on it. One of my favourites is not having to wait after using turbo.

That's sounding really positive Cookie and Chookie. I won't get mine until september. I will keep my 6 for while until other accessories are available for the 7 which I'm told won't be until 2026. I've been really getting into bread making and have had some great success.

 mcmich I cooked with a friend yesterday, with the 7. Together we discovered lots of new processes. Have you tried the Soft Chinese Buns? They are on Cookidoo. If you haven’t got this, you can probably find it on line.

[mcmich]

No, I haven't tried them. I have cookidoo so will give them a go.

I’ve been watching videos by Collette Mitegra. She is a consultant in Queensland. Her site is Thermiekitchen. She does some interesting ones. https://thermiekitchen.com/

Thanks Cookie for sharing.
Our consultant showed my friend how to put ingredients from a recipe on to phone shopping list .
Yesterday I cooked 4 large chicken legs in 7. To make stock. Again it kept pushing the lid off. Problem solved by setting 7 to lid off program but placing lid back on. I set the machine at 1 hour, 100 degrees, gentle reverse. The lid off temperature has to be set at 100 or less.

You’re very clever to be able to outsmart the TMX Chookie.

Well done Chookie . Is there a maximum filling capacity fir the open life’s cooking? .

I don’t know KAtie. I filled it to maximum. The chicken legs weren’t knocked around at all. I also added the bones and carcass of the takeaway chook. I remove the stuffing.
I also notice that not a lot of steam escapes from the lid.
Judy, half the fun of getting a new appliance is pushing it to the limit. This 7 will really test me but it is so much fun.
My SC gave up working, after 30+ years so I thought I would see if the 7 would do the job. Good, but don’t feel I could leave it on and go out.

I feel the same Chookie. I'm happy to leave the slow cooker on. Wouldn't like to go out and leave Thermie on.
