Blendtec blenders suggest liquid go in first to avoid jamming blades on solid frozen foods. All blade assemblies are different. Check manufacturers instructions.
The beast blender just arrived at Costco for $99. And I LOVED your video!! You two are so cute together, and I liked the ending of the video where you decided to keep both blenders! We are a family of four and do have the bigger blender, but I was on the fence about getting the individual beast one. Now I will get it! Thanks!
I think you hit the nail on the head…get both! For the price of a Vitamix you can get both. Keep the Beast on the counter but pull the Breville out when making large batches, soups etc. The Vitamix is great but it takes 1/2 of the real estate in my counter! It would be great to have a true, well built compact super blender that could do it all without breaking after 3 months of use.
Btw with the newer ascent models you can also get the food processor attachment. Given the wide range of things a Vitamix can do (much more than just smoothies and cocktails) mixing in the ability to also be a real food processor might justify it taking up more space for you.
Omg I wish I had seen this a few months ago! I waffled between like 3 blenders for months before finally picking the Beast. I’d love to have a larger vitamix or something, but for my limited NYC counter space the Beast made more sense. I can leave it in the counter which makes me way more likely to use it. I love it! Use it everyday :)
can you blend ice? I've also seen that people with this blender have a hard time cleaning it right because it doesn't come apart all the way, do you have those issues?
It blends ice with liquid pretty easily (like for a smoothie), and it used to blend ice like for a snow cone pretty well but not so much these days. I’ll also add it did malfunction but they sent a new one and the new one is way lads sleek, lower quality etc. Like different materials. Still okay at the price point and size, but when it’s toast I’ll go for a vitamin or blendtec I think
Oh I forgot to reply to the other part, very easy to clean imo. Easier than the non enclosed ones and you can put the cup in the dishwasher. I do want to make soups and sauces often tho and wish I could blend warm stuff or stuff a bit more finely.
I just back from buying it from Costco for $119.99, unpacked it and made me some very smooth frothy yummy walnut pecan milk with it. It was so on point! This blender is so well made. My only issue is that if you want a cold drink, you need to add ice because it blends the ingredients hot. And, it was hard for me to get the top off after it blended cuz im an old person with weak hands. I also confused the orange on/off button for the blend button. The actual actual on/off button is hard to see since it blends in with the color of the blender. Overall I absolutely love it! In another video someone mentioned that it is made by the same people who makes the bullet!
I bought it as a “travel” blender and compared to my Vitamix it’s much quieter. I think you could get away with not having your hotel neighbors get mad at you lol.
I really like this video. It was so informative, and gave a real perspective on the different kinds of blenders. My question was about the RPMs on that smaller blender, the beast? Is it as strong as say some thing like the Vitamix or something close to that?
Off the bat, I appreciate how much she knew about blenders👏🏾
I watched at least 8 different TH-cam video about Beast Blender. This one is the most informative.

Really loving this lesson on blenders and this bonus recipe 😄
Thank you!! Gonna be making dirty shirley's all summer!
Thank you for this lesson on blenders. I felt like I leveled up on blender facts 😂

Such a great vid, thank you! Is the Beast easy to clean overall?
Are they equally loud? We have a good-functioning VERSA, by Oster, but my husband finds it too noisy.
This was a detailed review/lesson on blenders I never knew I needed😂 thank you
loving these tips in addition to the review
Liked your chill approach on the review. Gotta get The Beast and try the Dirty Shirley.
BEAST MODE ALL DAY. I'M HERE SO I DONT GET FINED
Is that the beast or the mini?
Why ppl never review how to wash it???
How loud is the Beast blender? Is it same as your other blender?
I bought it as a “travel” blender and compared to my Vitamix it’s much quieter. I think you could get away with not having your hotel neighbors get mad at you lol.
The volume of the Beast was recorded at 81 db when filled to the max line :)
Entertaining and informative as always! Love you guys x
So nice, thank you!
Shouldn’t the liquid go in first?

FYI bananas destroy the nutrition value of berries by reducing their flavonoid. you should use pineapple orange or yogurt instead.
All Breville blender 620 leak under lid gaskit. Design fault. Don’t buy unless you want to remove gaskit every time for cleaning. It is total junk.
Awesome! And I loved the burp!
You guys are cute!
Don’t agree with mixing fruit and veggies it’s a no no bcuz of the enzyme. Do your research 🧐
I hope you’re not wasting my time, cuz now I’m curious!
@@Corrupted-file it’s accurate.
@@TashaWashington
Yeah, never would’ve thought.
Thanks. 🤘🏼
Correct
Is there a book that talks about this that you would recommend? I would like to read about it besides google of course
You're loading the Beast improperly. If you worked for Vitamix then you know better.
I'm gonna be honest, it's kinda annoying when her pitch goes up in the end of almost every sentence. And also, let the guy talk sometimes
They should be having more healthy juice themselves 😊
Bloobs
Can we address why you're talkin like a valley girl right now? I mean really did not go out in the 90's
Well, that's just you opinion man...."As if” and “Fer Sher!" I mean, “Totally”and “Seriously!"
