You know i'm also the expert of these machines except i'm expert in food processors and not blenders. İ really like the idea of Vitamix making a food processor attachment. There are a lot of useful things of it. But in my opinion I can say that instead of only 1 speed, they could have made it between 10 or 5. So that you could control everything that is going on. Another lacking thing is they could have add attachment for whisking, kneading dough, citruss pressing, or even juice extracting
I saw this Vitamix blender advertised the other day on Amazon. I was like, this sounds good but I wonder if it really works as well as they say. Then your video showed up today on my RUclips and I clicked immediately. Liked your demo, it answered some questions I had. I may just have to add this to my Christmas list wants. Thanks for your informative video.
Okay, I just gotta say this is a fantastic video. So slick (in a really good way) and professionally done/ Your presentation is great. Your tone and your cadence, and overall energy. A+. Thank you.
The key to keeping any blade from your shaving razors to your food processor blades is to never let them stay wet for very long. Moisture kills the blades! Even though many food processor/blenders claim to be dishwasher safe they always Recommend never submerging or putting them in the dishwasher. It's the same as with your knives. I shave my face in the shower and when I learned this tip I went from having to go through one schick quatro Blade per week to now using the same razor for at least 3 months. I rinse it then immediately dry it and never store it in the shower. Just to recap you need to Clean then rinse then immediately dry any blade that you want to stay sharp.
Incredible tip, Kip. I alluded to that in the video when showing us handwashing it. We do the same with our Vitamix container (and all other dishers). Especially with knives, quick wash and hand-dry is the secret. Keeps them from getting rust stains, too. 👍
I thought I’d respond here because this is an area I’m too experienced with. Blade edges wear for a number of reasons, such as: wear from use, poorly sharpened blades (leaving a thin piece of weak metal at the apex), poor heat treat, harsh conditions, and corrosion. Dishwashers are incredibly harsh environments. Places with a lot of salt are incredibly harsh environments (saltwater, the air near saltwater, etc.). Most razor blades and kitchen knives are quite stainless, but all it has to do is slightly wear down the very edge of the blade to make it feel dull and weaken performance. Lastly, stainless steel does not mean it’s completely resistant to corrosion. It means that it has a chromium content of a certain amount that SHOULD prevent corrosion. It doesn’t always work that way due to heat treatment of the steel or the composition of the steel. I’m curious whether Vitamix used a higher quality blade steel in this than is typically found from other brands so that it has an extremely long life like the rest of their products.
@@Cujobob One often unconsidered factor for edge care is when water dries it leaves behind a small amount of minerals which tend to be quite hard and cause wear (usually microscopic, but it adds up over time) at the apex of the blade edge. Simply drying the blade prevents this avenue of wear and prolongs edge life. Dishwashers do not allow for this.
You are the guru when it comes to Vitamix, saw few of your videos and they are amazing. The best part is how simple you explain and your suggestions are not biased
Another great reason to get this ! I also have the Breville Sous Chef, which is great, but I REALLY am trying to embrace a minimalist lifestyle, so I'll be adding this to my Ascent and saving a big chunk of counter space, while also passing down the food processor to my daughter, who has an older model Vitamiz and no food processor :) win win !
I had the enormous and hard to store Breville Sous Chef Peel and Dice 16 Cup Food. After struggling with the storage of all the attachments and hubby complaining about too much on the counter, I sold it on FB Marketplace for an excellent price and got the Ninja Auto IQ Professional, which is fine. No complaints after a couple of years of high use. The big plus is that it fits under the cabinet (16" tall). I wish this one was a tad lower to fit under our kitchen cabinet!
It's the M's I a busy mom so I do like that it blends without me being near it. And I like that it can blend a hot soup but because it’s plastic jar I don’t want it to heat down the plastic and for me to ingest that. So I blend a soup cold as a smoothie and put it in a pot to heat it up. And one of the biggest deciding points for me was the hope that Vitamix will come out with a food processor attachment for this model. So decided on the purchase. If you can take a moment to blend and already have a favorite food processor that is working well and you plan on using it for years, I don’t advice you buy this model. Hope I was helpful. I wrote my buying process cause you can see why I went with this model.
I just made ground beef from a a Tenderloin using this food processor on my A3500. Worked like a charm! I had been planning on buying a meat grinder. Not any more!
WOW!! This is great. Just yesterday I bought another attachment for my vitamix. At the store I had been looking over the various food processors but as usual didn"t buy one. I really really want a food processor but some are so huge and storage is a big deal. Sooo fast forward...today..stumbled upon your website....almond butter yum yum soups yumm...ok ..so then this video caught my eye. I'm sold Fantastic. I have the smart vitamix..bought it 3 years ago and take it with me if I go for away. I have waited so long to decide on a food processor since my mother's old one died. It must have been at least 30 years old. Thank you LifeIsNoYoke.
The Best Review I’ve see so far as always!! Got most info from your review Cos I love your comparisons between different foods and settings!! Very helpful!!👏 Thanks!!😊
I have the older Vitamix. It does not have pre-sets on it. It came with a 48 ounce container that I hated. I bought the 64 ounce and it made a world of difference. I have the dry grains container that use to grind my coffee all the time. I just ordered the stainless steel container. I am a manual type of girl and am having a hard time giving up the manual buttons for the ascent series. I have been following your channel since i got my Vitamix about 4 years ago. I love it and use it all the time. I read a review about the containers for the ascent series where people had problems in blending small batches of things in those squatty containers. Thoughts? I want to give my son a Vitamix, either mine, and I upgrade or buy him one. I have an old Cuisinart processor I will never given up, so I don't know that I would buy this one. Thank you.
I just got an Explorian 310 and I LOVE it. I have had a high-quality Cuisinart Food Processor for 45 years now and it's still going strong. I'm fussy about my shredded cabbage and usually have the patience to do it with my mandolin as the texture is superior. Now that I have the Vitamix, the Food Processor will likely stay in my cupboard for very long periods. I was using it for hummus, nut butter, and nice cream for the most part. Vitamix is so much easier for all of those.
Rebecca Melin I’m waiting on my order lol. COVID shipping time. But, I’ve used older food processors in the past. They are ok, but huge footprint. I was trying to find one that I could deal with, then saw the Vitamix attachment and fell in lurve. One machine, and I’ve always wanted a Vitamix. So, happy early Christmas/Soltice/Chanukah/New Year’s to me 😆
Amazed that you're so new to a processor as a vegan. I bought my first Cuisinart in college in the late 70's and have never looked back. Of course, back then 'they' were saying that FP's would replace blenders, but a good kitchen has and uses both.
Great Review - One of your best! Really nice job covering so much detail and shared some good insight too. (Just enough side-bar-funny with the comments about the voice echo ;)) The product looks awesome, probably in my future. Can't wait to see more on how to use it. Thanks so much!
It’s not available, and US processors are not compatible with UK motor bases. I learned the hard way. I have one I imported and it doesn’t work with my UK Ascent base.
Apparently it will not work on EU or Uk machines and possibly other markets, likely due to a variance in safety requirements. But you should definitely check from time to time to see if this lack of ability changes for your market area.
LENNY: It won't fit on a 750. ME: Hmm...Hold my smoothie. (Hand surrenders smoothie and reaches for a Dremmel .) 😉 DISCLAIMER: The safety features this attachment offers with the new motor bases would be non-existent if fit to an older model base. AND needless to say, any warranty would be history as soon as the first tab (See 3:25) was cut in any way.
We're getting a lot of questions about availability. Unfortunately, the FPA is only available in the US and Canada right now. We'll email when that changes lifeisnoyoke.com/keepmeupdated/
Nice review. I was already going to get it. I work hard, so certain things I don’t leave to chance. Years ago I refused to get a Vitamix or Dyson. Now it’s not even an option. I just spend the money because I like results, and companies who stand by their products with great warranties. Only complaint is after I upgraded my Vitamix to the new ascent series bundle at Williams Sonama, they had a sale 2 weeks later - $50.00 off the bundle🙄🤬🙄🤬🙄
@@LINYThx will follow along. If you ever talk to someone at vitamix would be great if you could ask them. Would be a huge sales potential for them. Fingers crossed :)
unfortunately no! and there is no answer on my question I have send to Vitamix USA will it be available in EU soon! :( If You find an answer please let me know to!
I mixed a pastry dough for an 11 inch beef pie for a quiche pan. Wow! The dough came together perfectly in seconds using the standard blade, I was impressed, so was my partner. For me dough preparation will be entirely different and never be the same as before. The crust on the pie after baking was excellent.
Have you tried nut butters in the food processor attachment. Wanting to know how it would compare to a Robot Couple Blixer. I expect the Blixer yo be better. But is it with the huge cost difference.
Great review! I was looking for a food processor and wondered if Vita Mix had one... and voila! Just wish it would work with my older model... A big investment, so I don't want to get rid if it since it's been hardly used. Bummer.
When you do some demos, please give the dimensions of the attachments to make sure they will fit on my shelves. The way it was stacked up it looked very tall. I have a great food processor with tons of attachments but I never take it out because it’s a pain. My vita mix is always on my counter so this will be more convenient. I use my processor for shredding cheese and making date based faux“chocolate truffles”. Thanks!
I know this is an older video. But I was watching one of your other videos because I just bought the A3500 and this food processor and some other items the other day. And that video ruined me. It was the video when you talked about the Navy Matte w/Gold Trim that did me in. When I purchased my second Vitamix (I already had the Pro 750) I bought the Systems Bundle. However, it came with the white frame/silver accents. It was not the color I would have chosen, but the bundle was sweet. After watching those videos I suffered buyers remorse. I need to go back and get the Sage Matte w/Gold accents. And now that I know all about it from you and your channel, I am returning the system. Unfortunately, I will lose the $25 discount and the bundle special, but oh well. And I have been on your website. I will add your affiliate code when checking out. Thanks for everything…
Great video! I have watched several on the new food processor. The one thing I think I saw on most is that there is still food stuck in the lid between the blade of the processor that doesn't get completely shredded or sliced. About how much food is left unprocessed? TY!
I am based in Australia and have an Ascent 2500 with the container it came with. I have just purchased the Food Processor attachment assembled it and the self detect isn’t working. The lid is on and the large pusher and small pusher in place. Wondering if the jug from Amazon is not compatible on the base sold here in Australia.
What do I do if it doesn’t detect the processor anymore? Everything is put together along with the top part that prevents you from putting your hand in.
TY! So the 5200 can't take the food processor attachment? The 310 can't make soup or nut butter? For the cook who sucks with technology, which would you recommend (if it has tech, it has to be easy to use, I'm hopeless). P.S. I have no aversion to a reconditioned model. I am looking for the best deal but does the job.
Lenny can you ask your friends at vitamix to make a dough blade for the food processor? I finally got a vitamix to replace my ninja but i miss the option to knead dough in it.
Also my apologies for not using the link. As a hobby experimental chef i wanted to make my own recipes and ideas so i can create different foods. With no inspiration from any cookbook i basically invent my own unique recipes and learn by trial and error
Planning on buying a Vitamix this week So stock on what to buy?! Go with the ascent range and worry about finicky tech and the limitation of the jar that comes with the unit as the U.K versions only come with the standard jar. Get this with the extra smaller baby food cups and the longer single ones Or get a classic! Help guys I have around £650 to invest
I ordered the anniversary 3500i last night. I've also got a Bamex bleeder though with a shredding / grating attainment so between the two i should be covered.
I'm waiting, but I'm so excited! i mentioned on another video a disability. Makes chopping hard and I love cooking. If you could find the time, please test tomatoes in a pico de gallo (not salsa). This is what I miss making most!
My A2300 would not detect the food processor. Have you ever run into such situation? Is there any tips? I have made sure that there is click when putting the work bowl on self-detected base. I also heard the 2-click when I put on the lid.
Thanks thanks thanks for posting this!!!!! I was unaware of the safety feature and thought something is wrong with my A3500!!! But the moment you mentioned the safety stick has to be in to work,,,,,, I am happy!!!! THANKS 🙏🏼🙏🏼super cute family 💕💕specially the little ones
Can you use the pulse function with the food processor? Yours and another video seemed to suggest that it only operates on the one slowed down speed from the blender. BTW....love that you value Harriet Tubman and are promoting that shirt. So cool!
Hey! I don't see any other videos of yours, using this processor. Is that because it isn't good? You don't really use it? Would love to know your thoughts in 2023 :)
Vitamix a3500 in the UK costs £675 compare to the $599 in the USA!! Plus there is a lot more colour options in the USA,more attachments available in USA as well! Bad marketing in my opinion with expensive product. Wish they would make the food processor available in the UK as well as the white base option
It's a real puzzle why the accessories won't for the European model. Can they be so different? Also can't understand why more colour options are available.
Will Vitamix come out with more attachments as a thick French fry, cubed diced onion attachments for the Vitamix food processor. These are the ones I would use the most. I make pico sauce and lots of soup so I really like the cubed onions and the French fryer attachment on other models just don't cut the French fries thick enough they cut them like shoe string potatos..
I want 1 just to reduce amount of items on counter. But, I have the Pro 500 classic base. Will it fit the E310? I'd buy it if it's significantly quieter or more power. Right now I have a full 12cp w/ 4cp mini insert Quisenart processor (love it, but huge) & a mini SlyCy kit for my Bamix Pro hand lender. This is my every day go to. A sidekick to the VitamIx.
You know i'm also the expert of these machines except i'm expert in food processors and not blenders. İ really like the idea of Vitamix making a food processor attachment. There are a lot of useful things of it. But in my opinion I can say that instead of only 1 speed, they could have made it between 10 or 5. So that you could control everything that is going on. Another lacking thing is they could have add attachment for whisking, kneading dough, citruss pressing, or even juice extracting
A kneading attachment sounds awesome. I'm curious if a juice-extracting attachment is in the works or cannibalize their core offering
I love that you put a noise-cancelling headset on your kid to protect little ears. Well done!
I just sub because of that

Also curious about this!
I'm curious about this too. I do more dicing than slicing.
I have the Ascent series and I’ve been looking for a food processor this is totally on time. Thanks!
Can you do a side by side comparison with other popular food processors?

I'd like to get this attachment to make healthy "Nice Cream". The endless pints of Ben & Jerry's during quarantine has just about done me in.
Do they make a food processor that fits all vitamix motors?

Yes!! I bought one recently and this food processor does not fit!! 🤦🏾♀️😭
Cut the fins off on the bottom, fits snug
Oh noooooo, it's not compatible with my 6300 😭 thanks for the informative vid! 🙏🏽
Great video! I have watched several on the new food processor. The one thing I think I saw on most is that there is still food stuck in the lid between the blade of the processor that doesn't get completely shredded or sliced. About how much food is left unprocessed? TY!
I am based in Australia and have an Ascent 2500 with the container it came with. I have just purchased the Food Processor attachment assembled it and the self detect isn’t working. The lid is on and the large pusher and small pusher in place. Wondering if the jug from Amazon is not compatible on the base sold here in Australia.
What do I do if it doesn’t detect the processor anymore? Everything is put together along with the top part that prevents you from putting your hand in.
When can i buy the cooking-Vitamix?
TY! So the 5200 can't take the food processor attachment? The 310 can't make soup or nut butter? For the cook who sucks with technology, which would you recommend (if it has tech, it has to be easy to use, I'm hopeless). P.S. I have no aversion to a reconditioned model. I am looking for the best deal but does the job.
Lenny can you ask your friends at vitamix to make a dough blade for the food processor? I finally got a vitamix to replace my ninja but i miss the option to knead dough in it.
Also my apologies for not using the link. As a hobby experimental chef i wanted to make my own recipes and ideas so i can create different foods. With no inspiration from any cookbook i basically invent my own unique recipes and learn by trial and error
Would love this. I just started making my own bread!
Please tell me Australians can purchase this? I own a ascent series. Located in Sydney AUS. Some information would be fantastic 🤘🏼
Can this be used in place of the dry grains container too?
Can it be used on a Pro 750?
Hola, ya leí q no sirve para la 5200 y no hay una para ella?
just got my a3500 & processor. Watched this, but don't understand what you mean by "5 settings"?!!! Where/what are the 5 settings for the processor?
Whats the difference between that Vitamix food processor attachment and the dry grains container?
Planning on buying a Vitamix this week
So stock on what to buy?!
Go with the ascent range and worry about finicky tech and the limitation of the jar that comes with the unit as the U.K versions only come with the standard jar.
Get this with the extra smaller baby food cups and the longer single ones
Or get a classic!
Help guys
I have around £650 to invest

I ordered the anniversary 3500i last night. I've also got a Bamex bleeder though with a shredding / grating attainment so between the two i should be covered.
I'm waiting, but I'm so excited! i mentioned on another video a disability. Makes chopping hard and I love cooking. If you could find the time, please test tomatoes in a pico de gallo (not salsa). This is what I miss making most!
Can you use this or just Vitamix to pulverize meat into a very smooth consistency and after drying make it a powder?
most likely
I love your shirt!!!!!
does the self cleaning button work with this @Lifeisnoyoke ?
Amazing review. Is it not compatible with European models or just not available in Europe? Thanks!
How is it out of order already? :( I NEED THIS!
You're not alone, it seems
Did you ever post the videos you said were in the works for the food processor? I can't seem to find any. Thanks for the great Vitamix help as always!
Not yet! We usually wait a while before making a follow-up
My A2300 would not detect the food processor. Have you ever run into such situation? Is there any tips? I have made sure that there is click when putting the work bowl on self-detected base. I also heard the 2-click when I put on the lid.
Thanks thanks thanks for posting this!!!!! I was unaware of the safety feature and thought something is wrong with my A3500!!! But the moment you mentioned the safety stick has to be in to work,,,,,, I am happy!!!! THANKS 🙏🏼🙏🏼super cute family 💕💕specially the little ones
Can you use the pulse function with the food processor? Yours and another video seemed to suggest that it only operates on the one slowed down speed from the blender. BTW....love that you value Harriet Tubman and are promoting that shirt. So cool!
pulse function works as a quick on and off yeah. but it's true that there's only one speed (no matter what the dial is set at)
I live in Europe, do you know if they will bring it out there?
definitely maybe! we'll send an update if they do lifeisnoyoke.com/keepmeupdated/
Great review...I want this but I have the 5200 maybe it’s time for a new vitamix :)
That’s what I’m thinking too!
This attachment can attach to vita prep 3 2020 model?
Hey! I don't see any other videos of yours, using this processor. Is that because it isn't good? You don't really use it? Would love to know your thoughts in 2023 :)
Hi..please advise..I have the vitamix 3500 ascend & just bought the FP attachment through amazon, unfortunately my machine couldn't detect it..:(
Very keen to hear how it does nut butters!
So it’s compatible with all of the Vitamix ascent blenders? Also the a2300i and the a2500i?
All US & Canada Ascents & Venturists, yes. Currently not compatible with UK/Europe/Australia Ascents & Venturists.
Lifeisnoyoke Thx. Hope they’ll make it compatible pretty soon, ‘cause I have some shredding and choppin’ to do
My vitamix is the 6500, would this processor would fit in. ????
My 12 cup jug is not fix on my vitamix .. not self detect … can u plz guide me why?
is this compatible with Vitamix Professional Series 750 Blender?
It is not
Does it work with the Explorean series sold in Codtco ?
No, only Ascent and Venturist
@@LINY please can you answer or try to find an answer when the Food processor will be available in Europe, thank you in advance.
Vitamix a3500 in the UK costs £675 compare to the $599 in the USA!! Plus there is a lot more colour options in the USA,more attachments available in USA as well! Bad marketing in my opinion with expensive product. Wish they would make the food processor available in the UK as well as the white base option
It's a real puzzle why the accessories won't for the European model. Can they be so different? Also can't understand why more colour options are available.
I was excited until you said that it won’t work with the older version. 😢
Longtime watcher! And.....I just subscribed when he showed the tee!
So glad to have ya
Will Vitamix come out with more attachments as a thick French fry, cubed diced onion attachments for the Vitamix food processor. These are the ones I would use the most. I make pico sauce and lots of soup so I really like the cubed onions and the French fryer attachment on other models just don't cut the French fries thick enough they cut them like shoe string potatos..
Hopefully! Stay with our list to get updates as we get them lifeisnoyoke.com/keepmeupdated
I want 1 just to reduce amount of items on counter. But, I have the Pro 500 classic base. Will it fit the E310? I'd buy it if it's significantly quieter or more power. Right now I have a full 12cp w/ 4cp mini insert Quisenart processor (love it, but huge) & a mini SlyCy kit for my Bamix Pro hand lender. This is my every day go to. A sidekick to the VitamIx.
It sucks is not for all models of vitamix 👎👎 was looking forward, but thanks for sharing this video .
You had me at the “goodfellas thin sliced unions” 😂
Hey. Does anybody know if this fits the professional 750 base at all? Thank you ❤
It doesn’t unfortunately
