00:07Hi guys, we're back with another foodie test lab and today I'm very excited because we are
00:11testing out the new Vitamix, the Vitamix S30. We're gonna be testing out a few different
00:16recipes today because apparently not only can you do smoothies and soups and spreads,
00:21you can also grind your own powder in this. So we're gonna start with a very simple green
00:25smoothie. Add some grapes, some char, some arugula, some spinach, a little cucumber, a little lime.
00:33You always want to add some water and spill it all over the table. Pop it in the base.
00:38You start on a low speed and then slowly ramp it up. And another fun feature of this blender
00:45is that it is a to-go cup. So that took about 30 seconds. You can see you have a
00:49nice green
00:50smoothie. I like it a little thick but if you want to make it thinner and more like a juice
00:55you can add more water. Obviously I didn't fill this all the way to the top. You can
00:59also use, if you want to, this sort of standard Vitamix base which also fits in here. This
01:05is actually the first Vitamix that is dishwasher safe. But all you really need to do is run it
01:10under the tap. As you can see nothing gets really stuck in there on the blades. Now we're
01:14gonna start to challenge the Vitamix a little bit with some harder ingredients. We're gonna
01:18make a frozen beet berry smoothie and I'm gonna add some ice. I believe in you Vitamix. Wow.
01:25This is perfectly smooth. Now we're really gonna put the Vitamix to the test. Apparently
01:30this can make almond milk. Frankly I have my doubts but we're gonna give it a shot. What
01:34you need to do is soak a third of a cup of almonds overnight in water. And then just cover
01:38it with a cup of water. And that's pretty much it. The Vitamix does the rest. Check
01:52it out! It is real almond milk. This is legitimate almond milk right here. I can't
01:57believe I doubted the Vitamix. This is definitely an investment product. If you are
02:00somebody who spends a lot of time in the kitchen, does a lot of food processing, and
02:03also enjoys a green juice every now and then, that can also get really expensive. So this
02:08might be worth the investment. In the meantime I'm gonna take the smoothies, the ones that
02:13the crew didn't drink, and I'm gonna go.
