Hamilton Beach BBF0600 - Tempest Commercial Food Blender, 3HP, Variable Speed

The Hamilton Beach Tempest food blender is the kitchen version of the Tempest, set up for chefs rather than bartenders. Its 3HP motor purees, emulsifies, grinds and chops, and variable speed control lets you slow right down for jobs like mayonnaise. A one-touch chop function handles solid ingredients, and a slow pour filler cap lets you add liquid to sauces while it runs. It shares the 2 litre stackable jug and compact footprint of the Tempest ice blender.

Good to know before you buy:

• Jug care: jugs are a consumable item with their own 3 month warranty. Hamilton Beach suggests replacing them about every 12 months, depending on use. They are dishwasher safe but not dishwasher proof, so washing them by hand helps them last.
• Worn jugs: using a jug once its bearings are worn can damage the motor and void the warranty. ICE offers a spare R series complete jug, so ask us.
• Power: runs on 240V power, rated at 2.2 kW.

Warranty: 3 years, back to base, through ICE, Hamilton Beach's Australian distributor, plus 3 months on the jug. Back to base means that if a warranty fault comes up, the blender is returned to ICE to be assessed, rather than being looked at on site.
