Resurrecting my 'old' Thermocook Pro

published

Purchased some 4 years ago, loved it then moved in with daughter who is an extreme minimalist. Refused to have it on the bench so it sent into the garage until last year when I retired and moved. Well, taking away the 'cobwebs' read the book again and I havent stopped. Its better than I remembered, I make bread, stews, yoghurt and I just love it all over again. I have all the bowls etc but occasionally it makes a few 'grunts' from the machine which I gently punch and the sound goes away. I am thinking it may not last much longer with its 'overuse' and will gladly purchase another in a heartbeat.



Purchased in October 2021 at Froothie for $900.00.

Great product

Great product and a great price compared to the opposition.
Touch button to work out cooking time, makes it so easy to use.
Compact, so not hogging bench space.
Easy to keep clean.

Perfect!

published

I wanted a cheaper alternative to Thermomix and I found it. I use it almost daily. Smoothies, mill oats and almond to flour, bliss balls, it makes eating healthy easy! I love the mixing blade over thermomix’s cutting blade in reverse. The only issue is changing blades, if it came with a second bowl, it would be perfect.

My new friend in the kitchen

published

I like how I can make a smoothie in the morning and a soup at night. It takes care of so many needs. It is especially easy to clean- much easier than a blender! I also use it to steam my vege's and fish. My children love the healthy frozen desserts that I can make in 90 seconds

The best!

Purchased this over a year ago and use it everyday. It's verstatile, stylish, quiet, easy to clean, and has multiple functions so you can prepare or make that special meal. I've found that I've been able to get rid of numerous other appliances in my kitchen, thanks to everything this can do. I love making soups, risottos, smoothies, spreads and chopping vegetables with my thermomix. The services offered by Froothie are also second to none. I defintiely recommend this product.

Does what it says

published

I was originally going to buy a blender, but got this at the same price. This was a good move - it works just as well as the blender i was about to buy, and does FAR more.
Does exactly what it says it will, and does it well.
The Froothie team are also really great, and go out of their way to help.

Love the curries and the risotto, and the scones and the soups..............on and on.

Love It

published

Bread, scones, risotto, soup, stew etc etc.....Love it. My husbands favourite desert/cake is 'Nannas Impossible Pie'. He can put it together in our Thermocook, pour it in a dish and into the oven. . Finally found a 'machine' he is comfortable using. We were so impressed we upgraded our generator so we can use the Thermocook on our boat.
Would like more recipes please and a specific tool for easier cleaning of the blade and kneading shaft. Highly recommend.

Like it so much I doubled up at our Holiday Home

published

Our daughter in law is a Thermomix agent and I liked the concept but for what I thought I would use it for I could not justify the price. With the Thermocook price at less than half I thought I would give it a go. We make a lot of soup and that was a major reason for the purchase. I now use it for a range of other preparations and love it. We spent two months at our holiday home early this and I missed it so much I bought a second one.

Great addition to the kitchen

published

Our ThermoCook has become a staple in our daily kitchen routine. It's ability to do so many different jobs is fantastic and we use it to make breakfasts, lunches, dinners and everything in between. It is easy to clean and easy to use and has reduced the need for many other appliances within our kitchen.

Fabulous

published

The Thermocook has so many functions, and I am looking forward to exploring them all. It is not particularly intuitiive, so you need to use the instructions and cook book. The cook book instructions are not all that helpful.. for example, there is a picture of boiled eggs next to the boil function. But that isn't the way you do boiled eggs. The forum is helpful. Very helpful users and Froothie will answer your questions promptly.

Great kitchen companion!

published

After attending a Thermomix demonstration I was really impressed but couldn't justify the cost. After a lot of internet research I decided to try the Thermocook considering the 30 day money back grantee and I was lucky enough to get life time warranty. I am extremely happy with this machine. I love that I can steam vegetables, make sourdough and blitz absolutely anything in the one machine. The only downside is the recipe book, definitely needs upgrading and you can't blend at high speeds over 60 degrees. I understand it's a safety issue but for blending soup it's quite annoying having to wait for it to cool down.

Sigal

I used my Optimum ThermoCook - 20-in-1 Multifunction for about a year and it TOTALLY STOPPED!!! Error E11, does anyone know what is going on?? So disappointed with this product!!!

1 answer

Athena Solutions Pty LtdOptimum Appliances

Hello Sigal, Error 11 means that the content in the jug is too hot which means the pulse function cannot be used. Please let the food cool down and then use the pulse function again :) You can find more info about this in the product manual on page 18 :)

what is the difference between the blender vs cooking jar ?

1 answer

Athena Solutions Pty LtdOptimum Appliances

Hi Pauline, the 2l stainless steel jar can be used for blending and cooking, however, some recipes require two jars so you can purchase an extra one via our online shop. Here is the ThermoCook Manual if you are interested: http://optimumappliances.com/assets/manual_pdf/EN/ATH_ThermoCook_Manual_Latest_01.pdf
