@@okraw You talk too much and repeat things and when you don't repeat things, you are saying them in the longest way possible and with a lot of unnecessary words. As a professional trainer I'm telling you please don't do that. Make your "real meat" a bit leaner. :)
This is my second Magic bullet, and I have to admit that for the price it delivers really well th-cam.com/users/postUgkxCKuMxLnvr6fJd_M4SE-n7trcGj3zEUHq Considering that there are other products twice and even four times more expensive, I think that for one person this is just right. The only problem is that you have to make sure that your vegetables and ice are cut into small pieces because it won't chop and blend well. I made the mistake of putting whole baby carrots with a cup of mixed greens, and it wasn't pretty.. Also be careful not to overfill it, because it will overflow. As long as you follow the manufacturer's instructions for use, you should be happy with this purchase.
Hi John. LOVE your channels! I'm a scientist and can tell you that oxidation can also be significantly reduced if you add fresh lime or lemon juice before blending. Still, I'm going to make the modification. Thanks!
That is good to here. I have been cutting a lemon and squeezing the juice into my kale smoothies, do you have any other tips for kale shakes, lke what i should add to them? I just started a month ago and I am really amateur with my recipe.
AdvancedHarmonics thanks good to know that also, is it that the citric acid effect that literally halts oxidation or merely halts discolouration? Or is it the same thing? Thanks.
Zedo they have the cure for cancer, they just dont want to share it because everyone is getting rich off people dying. its like chemo, they dont need to use it but it makes them tons of money. Do your research, it will break your heart. Especially when you see wee children dying because of greed. We wouldnt have cancer if they didnt put poisons in our water, air, and food. Perhaps you could become an honest scientist that goes into politics. Oh and there is not global warming. Find the trail the money leaves and you will find the greedy people lying to America and the world.
Hey John. You could probably glue on some little "legs" to the bottom of your cup that are a little longer than the cork (when inserted into the cup) so that you can set the cup upright without it tipping. This was a great video by the way. I never thought about this issue of oxidation before. And I really appreciate that you've continued all these years in letting God use you in such a loving way to share with others the gifts He's given to you.
I LOVE YOU JOHN YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HAPPY YOUR VIDEOS MAKE ME. IM SO HAPPY TO SEE THAT THERES COMPASSIONATE AND CARING PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD. YOURE LIKE THE BROTHER I NEVER HAD.
Only 76,600 views over 21 months? OMG. This was the most amazing video I watched all week. It SOLD me on buying a Nutribullet. I will buy extra bases anyway. I only need to make 1 vacuum base. THANKS JOHN!!! You better call the patent office soon!
Great idea. Tried it out on my Nutri Ninja 24 oz cup. Installed the vacuum valve and used the hand pump. Worked great. Next I disassembled the hand pump and attached to my Foodsaver FreshSaver Handheld Vacuum Sealing System electric pump. Pushed the button on the pump and it worked just as well as the original hand pump, but now no manual pumping. Thanks for sharing!
Relax. As a practising nutritionist I can say with confidence that you should blend and consume immediately. Minimal loss of nutrients due to oxidation. The nutri bullet and all the other clones on the market are not designed for long term storage. Just as when you cut an apple, you don't let it sit on a plate until it goes brown. If you're really concerned, you should just add a bit of fresh lemon, lime or other citrus juice or pieces to the mix.
John, I subscribe to all 3 channels, have watched hundreds of your videos. This is one of the very best -- awesome demo! (I'm growing a large organic garden and have started juicing, thanks largely to you. You're helping change my life and that of my kids! God bless you.)
Awww John I feel the same way about animals. 😭 I have 7 cats that I originally fostered but ended up keeping. 3 are disabled and special needs. I'm cat mama. Thanks for sharing that smile link with us. I would love to donate to them. ❤️
I love the NutriBullet. I just got the brand new one with 1200 horsepower and it is awesome! Every day for myself and my parents I've been using it for years and it helps the whole family.
I was researching which blender to buy when your video popped up. Not crazy about plastic but I am definitely going to do this. make it like a science project with my son whose starting to make his own smoothies. As always I enjoy your videos. Thank you for caring. If there were more people like you this world would be a much better place.
Thanks for the info. Was looking into buying a new vacuum blender and this saved me $$$. Got the valves you recommended and the 21/64 drill bit. Worked like a charm. I found I didn't need the cork. The valve does not leak in either vacuumed or non vacuumed state.
I was already liking the video. I am gaining so much information, and this vacuum hack for the blender is genius! But those tears, dear sweet fellow, when talking about your charity for the special needs cats and dogs, *INSTANT FAN. Nice to meet a real man. Thank you💖
I bet most people using a nutribullet are already eating better than those not using one. Probably not make much difference to do this for me. I use mine mostly for making cream sauces with cashews, nooch and some spices. I eat most of my foods whole.
Also, pro tip, to avoid such heavy oxidation in a vitamix or other high speed blender, blend on high just enough to get the ingredients fully broken down and incorporated into the mixture (10 seconds or so) then finish out the blend on just enough power to keep the mixture churning so it's pulling the liquid down into the blades for about 40 seconds. At this speed the blender will still do a good enough job of pulverizing the contents but will not be as violent and over blended. Produces a final product that's much less foamy and more smooth and creamy. Which helps with this over oxidation problem that's trending so big right now.
These blenders are notorious for leaking grease and bearings breaking down. With the vacuum in the cup all you're doing is sucking up some grease into your blend. Eventually you'll have grease, rust and some metal flakes in your smoothies. This won't happen right away but I guarantee it eventually will. My blades were leaking from normal wear and its happened several times over the years. I like this blender but recently ive decided to purchase a different one for that same reason. This blender isnt designed for vacuum blending so just be careful 🤷.
Hi John. Thanks so much for showing us this blender fix. Much appreciated. It was so touching, when you mentioned the animal rescue organization that you supported. Heart warming. God bless.🐶😸🍀💕❣️
I notice that adding lemon juice to fresh juiced ginger root keeps its bright color, and the same for fresh juiced apple - does not turn color/oxidize; I keep both in the freezer until needed.
LMAO I found this video looking up how the nutribullet was exploding on people and thought he was making a joke. I think it's even funnier that he's serious about this.
Here is a suggestion: 1) Coat your ceramic knife will coconut oil. . Chop all fresh and frozen solid ingredients down to 1” pieces. . Place in a large, shallow glass bowl. 2) Squeeze a 200iu or 400iu capsule of *natural* vitamin E into: . (1/4 cup of citrus juice + 1/4 cup water). . Stir/shake very well. 3) Spray plenty of that solution all over the chopped pieces. 4) Add all smoothie ingredients into the vacuum-capable blender cup. 5) Pump out the air [Use a “reversed” bicycle floor pump - 10 full strokes will accomplish a lot.] 6) Blend for about 1/3 of total blending time. 7) Then wait 2 minutes and pump out the air a second time. ***Because a little more air will have been released from the partially-blended mix.*** 8) Blend for another 1/3 of the total blending time. 9) Then wait 2 minutes and pump out the air a third time. ***ditto*** 10) Blend for the final 1/3 of the total blending time. 11) Then wait 2 minutes and pump out the air for the last time. ***ditto*** 12) Wait 2 more minutes. Either store in fridge for consumption at a later time, or … Pour into a real (not a plastic!) glass, and sip until it’s gone.
For most blender pitchers you will want a plastic square rather than a disc. And it should have a low density to keep it very buoyant and floating, and not be drawn downwards toward the blades.
Sorry if my question may have come up before, don't see it for now, but where could I get that nifty vacuum pump, plz? I figure I could use it with my blender etc., sure looks handy and clearly essential for blending produce.
The bartelli vacuum kit he mentions is not available anymore on Amazon, I found something similar called, Lasting Freshness, comes with 10 pieces and a hand pump for $15. I have yet to use it but it looks like it works.
What about for a Vitamix? I know there is a product out there someone is selling with a customized lid that costs the same as your fix with the nutri bullet.
I’m going to try this the vacuum hack . I have a seal a meal and been juicing then vacuum in 1/2 pint jars for my cooler . Now I use a automotive vacuum tester to vacuum seal mason jars.
John, you are awesome! Love you & your videos. I've learned so much & now I can repurpose my Nutribullet into a vacuum - bullet!. Keep up the great work!
John your a total tripper! Love your videos & you are so into this that it inspires me more & more & will adopt this hack...thank you so much bro! Love this life......blessings to all on their health journey...
Thank you John! I always enjoy watching your videos and I will definitely do this conversion. Your favorite recipe actually reminded me about how I used to add purslane to my smoothies!
I was wondering if a Food Processor can oxidize the pulp mixture(prepping for cold pressed juicer)? Would your vacuum hack work for a food processor? The one I'm mainly referring to is the one that is used with Goodnature's CT7.
I have a nutribullet but have read recently that these devices are exploding and causing serious damage to those using them. Lawsuits have been filed. Now I'm seriously considering buying the Vitamix. Haven't used mine since I heard about this.
the vacuum seal is pretty good at keeping things from falling out the bottom - i bought the corks but not sure if they're needed? also why not put the other end of the vacuum seal on the inside? or is it superfluous?
21:35 That smoothie is all sugar. I don't understand. If you use a juicer they say it spikes blood sugar too much, but with a juicer you can just stick green veggies in there and the juice will come out tasting great. With blender you have to put tons of fruit in with the greens just to make it drinkable. Wouldn't all that fruit in the smoothie spike blood sugar even more than a juice with only veggies?
Thank you for the simple vacuum method, John. I am so aware of the oxidisation of my smoothies and of how much air I am swallowing with each one I drink because I feel bloated and uncomfortable afterwards plus my blueberry (for instance) smoothies go brown very fast and don't stay purple because of instant oxidisation. Ever since you showed us the Kuvings vacuum blender I have really wanted one! Also, an idea, couldn't the vacuum be pumped once again after the blending to get more air out? I would do that. I have a nutribullet but have not used it for a couple years since i bought my large high-speed blender.
Instead of sucking air out, fill the glass all the way to the top with liquid. Then there is no air in it at all. I like to see you make the comparison again with 0 % air in the glass. Just bear in mind that the glass is overfilled when you take off the part with the blades.
Christian S That would be impossible with the nutribullet, it has a max line limit for liquids, if you go over the line the liquid spills out from between the blades and the glass
It a fully sealed blender as I show in the video: th-cam.com/video/E906Y4DNtEc/w-d-xo.html with as much air removed as possible, it DOES reduce the oxidation. That being said, this is for "sealed" blenders, most blenders are not sealed. Furthermore, non-sealed blenders should not be run "totally full" as there will be too much pressure in there. That being said, Sucking out EXCESS air (under vacuum) is the best of all, from my testing.
I watched the video now. Yea, that is the solution. I tried it with some random suction lid that was sitting in the kitchen waiting for a purpose. That received a hole though when pushing it into the Vitamix glass.
Washable and Reusable. If you leave the suction in place and twist off: 1. due to vacuum in chamber it will be hard to spin off 2. the valve will get all "messy" and will need to be washed, and it may fail due to crud in there. 3. provided the drill hole was precise, the valve will stay in so it shouldnt leak.
Very clever hack. It's one of my greatest pet peeves however seeing someone take the time to make a nutritious green juice or smoothie then walk around with it all day! I bet if they were freshly baked cookies they wouldn't get oxidized ;)
The Bartelli vacuum pump and sealer valves are no longer available on Amazon and they don't know when it will be back. So I think I'll get a wine bottle pump with its vac valves. Looks like I'll have to drill a bigger hole in the nutribullet. Does anyone know what the diameter of the opening is on a standard wine bottle?
Question : the air pump Valves are no longer available to purchase. Is there another brand you could recommend to buy the valves from? The same size that will fit the drill bit you recommended. Thanks!
Wouldnt the same thing apply if you filled the blender cup full with liquid like water with your fruit & veg (like you arent supposed to do) It would then remove all the air due to being displaced by the liquid. I stopped using my vitamix so much and now use my nutribullet for everything. Thinking of selling the vitamix. It is just so hard to get the stuff scraped out of it and clean it due to the one piece pitcher.
Have you modified the stainless lids to accept the vacuum adapter and compared vacuum blended + vacuum decanted with vacuum blended + normal pressure decanted? Where is the vacuum hack video of the $85 blender with similar or better performance to Vitamix?
Anyhow the amount of nutrients lost would be minuscule. Unless, of course, you believe the "research" put out by the very same people who are selling you a $500 vacuume blender.

Love ya bro. I can't handle seeing a critter in distress. You do good work.

*INSTANT FAN.
Nice to meet a real man.
Thank you💖
And no, I'm not being sarcastic.
I love animals, and I cry for them too.
I bet most people using a nutribullet are already eating better than those not using one. Probably not make much difference to do this for me. I use mine mostly for making cream sauces with cashews, nooch and some spices. I eat most of my foods whole.
to compare with other people is pointless...i take less heroin than my friend so im healthier

I notice that adding lemon juice to fresh juiced ginger root keeps its bright color, and the same for fresh juiced apple - does not turn color/oxidize; I keep both in the freezer until needed.
Really appreciate your hard work to show us all the features and specifications by explaining it all
Did this hack today. It works well! Thank you John. Would still like to purchase the new Dynapro when it becomes available in the UK.
Where did you get the bits in the UK? Thanks
I noticed when you put the cork in you could no longer set it down to fill it up because the cork stuck out too far and it would have tipped over.
Kudos to you, John, for developing this! Don't know if I'll be taking the time o do his with my Nutrabullet, but good info to have.
He didn't invent it... google search!
LMAO I found this video looking up how the nutribullet was exploding on people and thought he was making a joke. I think it's even funnier that he's serious about this.

7) Then wait 2 minutes and pump out the air a second time. ***Because a little more air will have been released from the partially-blended mix.***
8) Blend for another 1/3 of the total blending time.
9) Then wait 2 minutes and pump out the air a third time. ***ditto***
10) Blend for the final 1/3 of the total blending time.
11) Then wait 2 minutes and pump out the air for the last time. ***ditto***
12) Wait 2 more minutes.
Either store in fridge for consumption at a later time, or …
Pour into a real (not a plastic!) glass, and sip until it’s gone.
for top loading blenders just place a stiff plastic disk on the top of the juice and it will stop the vortex from forming.
For most blender pitchers you will want a plastic square rather than a disc.
And it should have a low density to keep it very buoyant and floating, and not be drawn downwards toward the blades.
Thank you John. Love your videos, you made me get all choked up about the animals :( Will be trying this out!

Why can't you just leave the vacuum sealer on it the whole time? It should not leak due to being air tight.
That was my question.
thats what I thought.
thats what I thought.

once the container is opened it will no longer be air tight, the possibility is there, the cork plug actually is a good solution.

If you use a juicer they say it spikes blood sugar too much, but with a juicer you can just stick green veggies in there and the juice will come out tasting great. With blender you have to put tons of fruit in with the greens just to make it drinkable. Wouldn't all that fruit in the smoothie spike blood sugar even more than a juice with only veggies?
Genius tip John, soooo happy, definitely gonna make this modified version. Thank you so much for sharing!
How simply brilliant John. Thank you so much. 🤗
Thank you for the simple vacuum method, John. I am so aware of the oxidisation of my smoothies and of how much air I am swallowing with each one I drink because I feel bloated and uncomfortable afterwards plus my blueberry (for instance) smoothies go brown very fast and don't stay purple because of instant oxidisation. Ever since you showed us the Kuvings vacuum blender I have really wanted one! Also, an idea, couldn't the vacuum be pumped once again after the blending to get more air out? I would do that. I have a nutribullet but have not used it for a couple years since i bought my large high-speed blender.
If you have a Foodsaver vacuum sealer why not pour content into a mason jar & get a food saver Jar Sealer to pull vacuum on contents after blending.
Great information. Thank you for the heart felt service you provide🙏❤️
Instead of sucking air out, fill the glass all the way to the top with liquid. Then there is no air in it at all.
I like to see you make the comparison again with 0 % air in the glass.
Just bear in mind that the glass is overfilled when you take off the part with the blades.
Christian S That would be impossible with the nutribullet, it has a max line limit for liquids, if you go over the line the liquid spills out from between the blades and the glass
It a fully sealed blender as I show in the video:
th-cam.com/video/E906Y4DNtEc/w-d-xo.html
with as much air removed as possible, it DOES reduce the oxidation. That being said, this is for "sealed" blenders, most blenders are not sealed. Furthermore, non-sealed blenders should not be run "totally full" as there will be too much pressure in there. That being said, Sucking out EXCESS air (under vacuum) is the best of all, from my testing.
I watched the video now. Yea, that is the solution. I tried it with some random suction lid that was sitting in the kitchen waiting for a purpose. That received a hole though when pushing it into the Vitamix glass.
@@robertoi.2072 what if you put the cover on with it all under water
OMG JOHN! BRILLIANT!
Can the green price that you use to vacuum , can that be used in place of the cork to have a more flush surface?
there's got to be a electric vacuum to use instead of the pump. love it john
A bicycle floor pump rebuilt to pull air out instead of push air in.
freaking love your energy, you seem like a ball of fun John lol
The 'Vacuum Sealer Pump with Valves' to which you link at Amazon is no longer available.
Have you found a way to buy the vacuum valves for NutriBullet?
@@alsmith8633 No. I gave up. 😕
Getting all the nutrients to counteract all that extra plastic!
This guy is ahead of his time
Do you have an electric pump option vs the manual pump?
For the cork piece, is it washable or use and toss? What will happen if you leave the suction piece in and just twist the lid off?
Washable and Reusable.
If you leave the suction in place and twist off:
1. due to vacuum in chamber it will be hard to spin off
2. the valve will get all "messy" and will need to be washed, and it may fail due to crud in there.
3. provided the drill hole was precise, the valve will stay in so it shouldnt leak.
okraw I'm looking forward to purchasing all these items
Would there be less oxidation if the blender is full?
Very clever hack. It's one of my greatest pet peeves however seeing someone take the time to make a nutritious green juice or smoothie then walk around with it all day! I bet if they were freshly baked cookies they wouldn't get oxidized ;)
Wow, that's awesome for helping the animals. Your a special man. Thank you and God bless
The Bartelli vacuum pump and sealer valves are no longer available on Amazon and they don't know when it will be back. So I think I'll get a wine bottle pump with its vac valves. Looks like I'll have to drill a bigger hole in the nutribullet. Does anyone know what the diameter of the opening is on a standard wine bottle?
Question : the air pump Valves are no longer available to purchase. Is there another brand you could recommend to buy the valves from? The same size that will fit the drill bit you recommended. Thanks!
Thank you John!
Maybe this question is dumb, but isn't the vacuum sealer enough to turn over the nutribullet or will this leak? Thanks!
Thank you. Great idea. I ❤️ that you feel for animals. Me, too. Part of the reason I’m going plant-based.
What is your opinion on microplastics? Is it possible to drill glass, bit by bit (literally)?
Still waiting for the Kuving vacuum vs. tribest vs vitamix demonstration. And if you find a 220volt model, I'll be the first to buy the winner!!!
jak jak is the kuvings out yet?
+Tramon Walker ask John, He knows for sure! We're all waiting!!

John as A thought what about filling the blender to the top with water so that there is not any air. Then it can not oxidise ?
Wouldnt the same thing apply if you filled the blender cup full with liquid like water with your fruit & veg (like you arent supposed to do) It would then remove all the air due to being displaced by the liquid. I stopped using my vitamix so much and now use my nutribullet for everything. Thinking of selling the vitamix. It is just so hard to get the stuff scraped out of it and clean it due to the one piece pitcher.
Simply brilliant!!
Hello can you test the Kitchenaid Pro Line Blender,,, I heard its better than the vitamix since it has 3.5hp ???? what do you think??? thanks
No bs man... love it
man when you lost it... what a genuine guy.
Hey John, where can I buy those glass with screw lids? Those are nice
Set of 6 Borosilicate Bottles (Glass with Stainless Steel Lid + Silicone Seal(Ones I put the apple smoothie into)
amzn.to/2rkwLKJ
Have you modified the stainless lids to accept the vacuum adapter and compared vacuum blended + vacuum decanted with vacuum blended + normal pressure decanted? Where is the vacuum hack video of the $85 blender with similar or better performance to Vitamix?
How does oxygen diminish vitamins?
Anyhow the amount of nutrients lost would be minuscule. Unless, of course, you believe the "research" put out by the very same people who are selling you a $500 vacuume blender.
We don't have this item or Amazon. How would you search it, I want to make that green part so I can do this. I need a vacuum blender!
Do you know where I can purchase the valves?
Can you just keep the vacuum sealer in instead of the cork?
