Good afternoon gents. I looked over the blender post and it turned up some good results fast. Looks as if the VitaMix or Blendtec are the ultimate and the Waring will do for less than industrial rock crushing!
What I need worse than a blender(we have a functional KitchenAid) is a very good quality food processor. It does not have to the most powerful in the world, just efficient. They seem to be broken down into about three general sizes. 2-3 cups, 4-6, and 6-9. Our current Kitchen Aid is in the middle of that range. Truth be told, at times it is too small. It works just fine but if you are processing up bulky stuff it gets a bit dodgy. Would stepping up to a 9-12 cup model be a good move? I have heard that these things really can be too big and make processing smaller amounts a pain. Thoughts? How about brands? Cuisinart seems to be the de facto "name" in processors but I am wide open to suggestions. Thanks for the help.
Regards, Todd
I forgot to add something. Controls. I have become a minimalist with this stuff. I don't want twenty buttons on the front of this thing. ON/OFF/PULSE works. Maybe two speeds if it is convenient to use.
