When you use a vacuum pump with a jar, first you suck the air out of the jar and there is no outside air pressure on the marshmallows, therefore they increase in size, because they contain air inside and it has internal atmospheric pressure. If you used it longer (had a more powerful pump, the marshmallows would start to decrease in size as the air would slowly make its way out of the tiny air pockets. Once the air would get out and you filled the chamber with the air again, the marshmallows would shrivel up even more, because of the air pressure outside and no counter-air pressure from inside. The air couldn't get back inside the marshmallow anymore, because the "airways" would get stuck and wouldn't let the air back in (no more air pockets inside). If you used the bag instead of a chamber, the marshmallows would get flattened faster, because you would suck the air around the marshmallows and the one inside, but keep the pressure (there is air pressure on the outside of the bag and the bag is pressing on the contents). If you put an air balloon inside the vacuum chamber (which is essentially what this blender cup is), it will suck the air which surrounds the balloon, but the air inside the balloon wouldn't go anywhere and the balloon would keep expanding as far as the material would let it. You don't really achieve a complete vacuum inside the chamber, but you get close enough.
terrific video Henry. I picked up the updated version of the dynapro just under a year ago I believe it was. I use it mostly producing and it's off the charts incredible! my personal experience you are correct about the limitations. I also own an old Vitamix if I need it. but the nutritional margin available through vacuum juicing is worth it to me. and I found these nut milk bags made by the guy that was the CEO and owner of blendtec Tom Dixon. I just call it a juice bag. I never heard of these nut milk bags before this experience. and I thought it was kind of a yucky thing to do, but after the first time I did it and tasting my first product from it I was blown away. I've been juicing for a bit over a decade now and started with the old centrifugal juicers and work my way to the vertical slow juicing technology for several years, but when I saw this presented as a vacuum juicer, it really got my attention. the nutritional value and the juice consistency in my humble opinion is off the charts and worth a little bit of extra effort and squeezing the juice for the bag which to me is a lot easier than standing over the sink feeding my juicer for an hour cuz I can squeeze the bag in a few minutes. and as you know cleaning a blender over a juicer is incredibly less time consuming and simpler to do. blenders are loud vertical slow juicers are not. I don't live in an apartment but if I did I'd have to take that under consideration because I have very unorthodox daily activity cycles. anyway, I'll subscribe dude. PS I've never ate a juice like you did in this video with the apples. I typically blend the apples and then squeeze them through the juice back and drink the juice. granted there may be a boatload of more nutrition and several apples being juiced then one apple being diluted with water, but I find that approach that you did there might satisfy a need I have for general hydrating without having to go through the squeezy thing with the juice bag. that little piece of business in your video was worth it alone for me to watch. thanks
Supposedly, vacuum blending is healthier because many of the healthy micro-nutrients in produce die while blending. Vacuum blending (and slow juicing) both prevent this leading to a healthier finished product. However it seems to me like it would be pretty easy for vitamix to create their own vaccum capable containers. From watching this seems like all you'd need is to put some silicone gaskets on the vitamix container and then use a similar vaccum pump on it and wallah- Vitamix vacuum blending!
It's mostly vitamins which largely "die out" very fast when exposed to oxygen. Especially badly when products of sour and acidic types (such as apples, oranges, berries, and etc) are blended up. Vacuum blending helps tremendously in preserving of those for much longer periods of time (several minutes VS hours, when on air. And around ~2 hours VS almost a day, when in the fridge).
Thankyou so much for this review. I was debating getting the Dynapro or keeping my newly purchased Vitamix. I’ll stay with Vitamix but I do hope someday soon they have a vacuum blender available. I value what you say and am sticking with my Vitamix. Thanks for the help!
Also wanted to ask how is the taste different between Dynapro vacuum and Vitamix? Is the vacuum blender just help to preserve it longer or does it taste better also right after blending?
@@mrmeach1967 I would love to see Henry try this and see if it does provide what you stated. I think you may have something there as per releasing the air out of the mixture thus making it flat as per froth.

Most Grocery stores have Dry Ice. CO2. Put a chunk of it in the blender mix for a few minutes to displace the O2. Let it purge. No more oxidation. Just a small amount will do. A Teaspoon of Dry Ice. There are alternatives to do the same thing.
Free radical damage (your Apple turning brown) is real but it needs time to do. If you drink your smoothie right away like most people, you don't need to go through all this extra stuff
I believe the radical damage would happen anyways, it would just take place in your stomach instead. Atleast I would think this, because the oxygen would have already been pumped through and into the entire smoothie when it was blending, so all it would need is just the time to display the effect :O. That's just my guess atleast lol
I usually blend up 4+ liters (135 oz?) worth of different drinks for a family consisting of four grown/adult people, which I then store in the fridge so that family members could consume it on a on-demand basis through the entirety of the day. And I do this daily. So, in such particular case as mine, vacuum blending is a *definite* must-have, as it allows to keep made drinks almost completely fresh AND vitamin-rich for a very long time (almost entirety of the full day cycle, for as long as made products are stored in the fridge after they've been made). Lack of bubbles (and thus fermentation/effervescence) is an insanely important characteristic of vacuum blending for me personally, as absolute majority of the time the types of drinks I make tend to start spoil up relatively easily and fast. Vitamix is an amazing company and it's blending products are top-notch, but this company currently doesn't have a model able of vacuum blending, so I've chosen Tribest over it, for the time being. HOWEVER, don't get me wrong - I already actually have TWO Vitamix models (780 and 3500i) on my kitchen too (in two different households/apartments), they're solid as hell, for particular tasks I throw at them, but Tribest is a clear winner nonetheless when it comes down to SPECIFICALLY making vacuum blended drinks and other products (salsa, ketchup, etc). If Vitamix ever releases a model in the foreseeable future which would be capable of doing vacuum blending properly, then I'll definitely be retiring my Tribest over it...but so far they didn't.
Hello I am looking to buy a juicer for veggies..I really wanted to get angel juicer but not sure which juicer would be better to buy..The vacuum juicer not sure..Any suggestions..
Hi Lily! sorry for the slow response. It really depends on your budget. Juicers $200 and under are more standard juicers and won't press as much juice than the more expensive juicers. If you're still looking please reach out to me at the following link and let me know how you're going to be using your juicer and your maximum budget. www.blendingwithhenry.com/ask-henry
around 8:10 when vacuuming marshmallows, there is STILL air trapped inside, that's why they expand. the inside air is pushing against the small enclosed bubble walls. this expands the marshmallows because the atmospheric air that would push against the bubbly from the outside (keeping them normal sized), is removed by the pump. when you let the air back into the mixer, the atmospheric air does not push into the sweets. rather, the normal status is restored, where the trapped air inside the marshmallows is of the same pressure as the atmospheric pressure. you would have to keep the vacuum up for a longer time in order to evacuate the inside of the marshmallows (if this is completely possible at all), they would shrink over time to their original size when the remaining inside air pressure and the outside vacuum are equal. opening the vacuum seal would then make them shrink, because the normal atmospheric pressure would not enter the sweets as fast. over time, the air would penetrate back into the marshmallows and they would slowly return to their original size.
*you would have to keep the vacuum up for a longer time in order to evacuate the inside of the marshmallows* Tell that to the manufacturer. The pump stops on it's own and won't vacuum any further.
I hope you realize this was just a demonstration of how the vacuum blender works. I don't even feel vacuum blenders are ready for prime time as it is. The company sent me the blender to review.
@@BlendingWithHenry i understand. i was just pointing out misconceptions about how pressure and vacuum in general affect certain things. when you picked the marshmallows, you were looking for a way to visualize the otherwise invisible vacuuming process. cheers !
Discount Juicers did a review on a replacement carafe for vacuum blending that fits Vitamix Blenders. I would think a different lid for the Vitamix blenders which seal better and have a vacuum feature would soon be in production for Vitamix down the road though I did reach out to them and the individual I spoke with seemed to not know anything about vacuum blending. Awesome video Henry thank you!
Love the video! If you want your nutrients get a Nama Juicer or a Pure, if your wallet can stand it. Vitamix is probably still the top blender of 2023, for now but stay tuned. You know how they "do" us.
Hi Fernando. Vitamix does not offer this function. Right now it's not beneficial for most blending needs because it's limited to recipes that don't require the use of the tamper or any interaction of the user such as opening the lid to add ingredients when finishing soups. Often people need the tamper for thick ingredients, even for smoothies. Making hummus or dips and spreads. Making ice cream, etc. The vacuum function is still a gimmick and unless it can be used for all or most blending needs it will be a gimmick. While anything is possible I do not know of Vitamix experimenting with gimmicks that offer limited use.
Hey Henry, I have a question for you. I have had my Tribest Dynapro for about a year. At first the distributor gave me the older version with the crappy motor and after six months it broke down. So they replaced with the Swedish one. Now about two months ago there was a leak in the craft from the blade assembly. I contacted them about it and they sent out a replacement. In the meantime I was still using the one with a minor leak in the blade assembly. Later I realized that there was grease leaking from the blade assembly snd because of the vacuum, it was not dripping down as per usual on most older blenders, but the blade shaft grease was being sucked into the friggin smoothie and salsas. Do you think this is a major flaw and overlooked issue of all vacuum blenders, because eventually almost blade assemblies begin to leak, but with a vacuum blender it will get grease sucked into whatever your blending and because it’s slow and bubbles when vacuuming anyways, one would not notice it for a while and most likely ingest some toxic grease from the blade assembly. What are your thoughts on this matter. I only had the blender a year so far.
Hi, I'm sorry to hear you're going through such unfortunate issues with your vacuum blender. I no longer have my review machine so it's hard for me to give a definitive answer. Vitamix containers will last several years of daily use past the warranty period before the seal begins to have issues so it may depend upon the manufacturer (Tribest in the case) how well built their blade and seal systems are. Best of luck.
Vacuum blending is still a "hobby" feature. Many recipes cannot take advantage of it. For example you can't use it for nut butters, dips, frozen desserts or any thick ingredients that may require the need of the tamper. Also even soups are limited. If you want to add ingredients at the end to your soup to make it chunky it requires the lid cap to be removed and air will get in as you're blending your last minute ingredients. Stick with proven technology. Vitamix.
Thanks a lot for the video. I guess Vitamix is working on a vacuum série! How come they are late?! I still have one question: I do my smoothie before I go to work and I drink it 2 or 3 hours later, so there's no point for me to use a vacuum as it will be oxyded anyways. If I keep it in a vacuumed bottle it prevents a little from oxydation but every time I drink I open the jar and then create some oxydation. What do you think? Ok now I'm being obsessed with oxydation lol
Great video. You should, however, mention the warranty issues with the Optimum Blender in a separate video rather than at the end of this one. At first, I thought you were mentioning this issue because Optimum makes the Dynapro, but then I remembered Tribest makes the Dynapro, not Optimum. Other than that, I like this review a lot (thumbs up).
Buy a $49 Oster blender and use a mason jar as your blender jar (same threading), fill it up so there is very little airspace and blend, giving the same benefit as a vacuum blender.
I would love if you review the Froothie Evolve. I wanted to compare it to a3500. I live in UK and i am too worried buying £500 Froothie Evolve if i am then to struggle with customer service as in uk it seems to be run similar to US ie by one or two people only.
Other than having the money to buy and finding the right kinds of containers for the different kinds of foods, there's nothing stopping anyone from vacuum sealing any sort of container for a gallon of juice, 12 ounces of nut butter, or anything else one would blend after the it's all dealt with.
I like your videos! I’m that silly guy who bought a Ninja Chef blender. I have always wanted a Vitamix blender, but after watching your demonstration with Ninja Chef vs Vitamix, it really made me want a Vitamix more. However, I have recently bought KitchenAid’s new K400 series blender and love it. Although I already own the blender, I would like to see your review on this blender from KitchenAid or even the KitchenAid Pro Line blender that seems to be getting much hype.
Hi Christopher. Thanks for watching. I have no plans to review Kitchenaid products. Kitchenaid has made it clear that Blending with Henry will not be reviewing their products, so you will never see their blenders on my channel.
Blending With Henry Oh wow! That’s a shame KitchenAid won’t step up to the challenge. I do love how you review the Vitamix blenders. I still may buy one after a while. One can never go wrong with it!
It's only useful for very select recipes. Many other recipes won't benefit from vacuum blending. You can't make nut butters as it requires the use of the tamper. You can't make frozen desserts, hummus, dips or even smoothies with tough ingredients for the same reason, or any other recipes that require adding ingredients while blending.
Thanks for an informative video and comparison! I know vitamix comes with different sizes of the cups. Does dyna pro have the same option? Also what specific tasks the tribest couldn’t do well comparing to Vitamix? To me the perfect blender would vitamix with vaccum capability. I am in the market searching for a good blender and the ability to vacuum blend is a must have criteria even that means I need to hack vita mix. Plz share your view point:-)
Great Video, because I was choosing between the Ninja and the Vitamix. We had a Living Well Montel Williams, but it cunkout now my choice is the vitamix hands down
Hi Henry, I just wanted to let you know that when you blend something in a blender, it really isn't juice since it still retains the fiber. What you made here was a smoothie. It's only juice after the fiber has been removed or if it has come out of a juicer, not a blender. You may already know that, but in case you didn't. I hear people get confused a lot with this and it can cause problems when people are told to juice fast for healing and they think that a smoothie is juice and then they don't get the same level of healing. The faster we can clarify that the better. Just a quick FYI. I enjoyed the video. You did a really good job explaining everything. :)
Thanks for the education. Silly me. I'm new to this whole blending stuff. Just started doing all this last year and I'm still learning how to properly make a basic smoothie, and I've never used or even tried a juicer my entire life. 🤷♂️
👋🏽 Hey Henry...I have a curious question do to my observation of the Dynapro versus the Vitamix... Be it that the crafts of the two units are VERY similar...are lids interchangeable? If so...could you demonstrate how a Vitamix machine/power would be improved while under vacuum...
Blending With Henry : All man...that’s disappointing...because Vitamix is really dragging their feet in coming up with a lid for their legacy blender models...that would provide the vacuum blending experience...but Henry...thanks for responding to my inquiry...😃👍🏽
Excellent review! I live in the UK and am looking at the Froothie Vaccum Blender. The latest version of the Dyna Pro is not available in Europe for the next couple of months. ( According to Tribest Europe) There are no reviews online on the Froothie. Maybe you can do a review on it??
Hi Stephen! Thanks for watching!! Towards the end of my video I mentioned that Froothie is impossible to get a hold of here in the U.S. I won't be reviewing their product.
Hi mate. Did you get the Froothie at the end? I am trying to decide if the new Evovle is any good over vitamix but i do not much about Froothie Uk abd their customer service
Hi Henry, I so enjoy your videos ; I need to comment on this video as you said the Dynapro tripped the circuit breaker, this is not true. The Dynapro tripped the GFI, it trips with detected electrical leakage or Ground Fault in the item plugged into it, it is designed to prevent electrical problems in plunged in items from shocking or electrocuting you. A very good thing for safety.
You managed to crack me up because I've heard of this and immediately thought (dismissively) "gimmick"; your opening line asked that very question. I'm also very familiar with Tribest (they've been around a very long time). Out of curiosity, is this made in Korea (land of the bogus "magnetic and bioceramic technology" for twin-gear juicers)?
300 years ago they'd have burned me as a witch; today I'm psychic. (Did I mention I'm very familiar with Tribest?) I don't know . . . given that I live an oxygenated life in an oxygenated environment, I'm glad it's pretty ubiquitous. I do agree that green is more appetizing than brown but you can arrest oxidation in fruit by adding a bit of lemon juice, or Vitamin C, or citric acid, or Fruit-Fresh . . . you get the idea. And c'mon, Henry--you KNOW in your heart that Australian company isn't answering the phone because it's always ringing off the hook and their scores of hard-working agents are working 24/7! Cut them some slack! :))
Hm ! I like the idea, when you blend whey protein you will have a lot of foam in Vitamix. I now have 3 different Vitamix. But it should not be to difficult to make a vacuum can . Talk to Vitamix 😉 all the best from Christer in Stockholm 🇸🇪
@@BlendingWithHenry I appreciate your reply, I understand why it's impractical to make peanut butter in a vacuum. Could you please show us how to make homemade mayonnaise, please 🙏. Everything turns out so great when you show us how to make it.
@@tonybrian7652 Hi Tony. I made vegan mayo in the Vitamix Aer Disc Container. It's actually a Garlic Aioli but without the garlic it taste nearly 100% like store-bought mayo. See here ➜ ruclips.net/video/98Zrpwk6JBc/видео.html
Because it has no difference if you store them or not. The air is getting whipped up in your smoothie so when you blend it up it increases in volume. Blending in a Vacuum adds less or No Air so no extra volume. Sort of the same concept with Ice Cream and Gelato. Some studies show you are losing nutrition by blending with air compared to no air. If you don't care about it and think its a scam that is ok... just keep blending the usual way. Oxidation is real though and you can see in just a few minutes the difference. The same difference I see in my Norwalk Juicer compared to my 40 dollar Wal Mart Juicer.
It would be so easy for Vitamix to simply modify the lids for this at little expense. I don’t understand their resistance, particularly since another company makes available a vaccum container that works on the Vitamix: and the extra control of the Vitamix speed, etc. makes it an ideal candidate for vaccum blending. I just don’t understand their reluctance to do this as it would be so simple.
John, while I understand what you're saying and I'm not saying this shouldn't happen but there's something you should honestly recognize, the vacuum product is extremely limited and I mentioned this in my video. Soups, Smoothies and recipes that do not contain complex ingredients are the only recipes that will benefit at all from vacuum blending. That leaves out nut butters, ice cream, dips/spreads, plus recipes like making mashed potatoes in the Vitamix or blending any other thick ingredients because they require the use of the tamper. Using the tamper requires the lid plug to be opened and vacuum blending cannot be possible. Right now recipe categories are very limited because of this and other than for demonstration purposes there's really no benefit to vacuum blending a smoothie. People that demo this tend to show how long a smoothie will last before separation. Well the ice breaks down and the structure of the smoothie tends to break down if it's not consumed right away so that's another unnecessary need for vacuum blending.
Vitamix really needs to get with the game and offer a vacuum blending option. It shouldn't be that difficult to come up with a lid and pump to fit existing models.
Why didn't they make this plastic free? Like with a glass jar, 100% stainless steel blade unit & lid with silicone layer on the inside......isn't their other range of blenders plastic contact free ?
thanks man. Actually, just found out, they do have a Plastic contact free vacuum blender. www.tribestlife.com/productdisplay/tribest-glass-personal-blender-pbg-5001-glass-single-serving-vacuum-blender
Yes, I'm familiar with that. It's a low powered machine. It's not designed for commercial quality professional blending tasks or for pulverizing tough ingredients such as what the Dynapro 1050A or the Vitamix can do. That's why they can offer it with a glass container. I've spoken to Vitamix, Blendtec and other power blender companies and they all state that there aren't any glass materials that can withstand the pressure. I'm certain in time this may change. One thing to keep in mind. A glass carafe can be very heavy, especially a 64oz carafe that has contains the recipe ingredients such as soups or smoothies.
It's a GIMMICK. You see that immediately. As by design you cannot use a tamper which is an essential tool in blending. At most these vacuum blenders will be just expensive smoothie blenders.

I don't wait 25 minutes to drink my Juice/Smoothies. I'll stick with my Vitamix.
I usually blend up 4+ liters (135 oz?) worth of different drinks for a family consisting of four grown/adult people, which I then store in the fridge so that family members could consume it on a on-demand basis through the entirety of the day. And I do this daily. So, in such particular case as mine, vacuum blending is a *definite* must-have, as it allows to keep made drinks almost completely fresh AND vitamin-rich for a very long time (almost entirety of the full day cycle, for as long as made products are stored in the fridge after they've been made). Lack of bubbles (and thus fermentation/effervescence) is an insanely important characteristic of vacuum blending for me personally, as absolute majority of the time the types of drinks I make tend to start spoil up relatively easily and fast. Vitamix is an amazing company and it's blending products are top-notch, but this company currently doesn't have a model able of vacuum blending, so I've chosen Tribest over it, for the time being. HOWEVER, don't get me wrong - I already actually have TWO Vitamix models (780 and 3500i) on my kitchen too (in two different households/apartments), they're solid as hell, for particular tasks I throw at them, but Tribest is a clear winner nonetheless when it comes down to SPECIFICALLY making vacuum blended drinks and other products (salsa, ketchup, etc). If Vitamix ever releases a model in the foreseeable future which would be capable of doing vacuum blending properly, then I'll definitely be retiring my Tribest over it...but so far they didn't.
Kawayolnyo lol “must have.” Ok pal, guess must means something different in your reality.
@@Kawayolnyo Put in a Teaspoon of Dry Ice from the super market, and wait 2 min before mixing. The results will be the same.
@@skywave12 Thank you so much!!
Kawayolnyo Pleas write how your Tribest dynapro goes? Does it blend linen and sesame inside of smoothy? Thank you.
Hello I am looking to buy a juicer for veggies..I really wanted to get angel juicer but not sure which juicer would be better to buy..The vacuum juicer not sure..Any suggestions..
Hi Lily! sorry for the slow response. It really depends on your budget. Juicers $200 and under are more standard juicers and won't press as much juice than the more expensive juicers. If you're still looking please reach out to me at the following link and let me know how you're going to be using your juicer and your maximum budget. www.blendingwithhenry.com/ask-henry
around 8:10 when vacuuming marshmallows, there is STILL air trapped inside, that's why they expand. the inside air is pushing against the small enclosed bubble walls. this expands the marshmallows because the atmospheric air that would push against the bubbly from the outside (keeping them normal sized), is removed by the pump. when you let the air back into the mixer, the atmospheric air does not push into the sweets. rather, the normal status is restored, where the trapped air inside the marshmallows is of the same pressure as the atmospheric pressure. you would have to keep the vacuum up for a longer time in order to evacuate the inside of the marshmallows (if this is completely possible at all), they would shrink over time to their original size when the remaining inside air pressure and the outside vacuum are equal. opening the vacuum seal would then make them shrink, because the normal atmospheric pressure would not enter the sweets as fast. over time, the air would penetrate back into the marshmallows and they would slowly return to their original size.
*you would have to keep the vacuum up for a longer time in order to evacuate the inside of the marshmallows*
Tell that to the manufacturer. The pump stops on it's own and won't vacuum any further.
@@BlendingWithHenry to be fair on the other hand, why would you evacuate marshmallows?
I hope you realize this was just a demonstration of how the vacuum blender works. I don't even feel vacuum blenders are ready for prime time as it is. The company sent me the blender to review.
@@BlendingWithHenry i understand. i was just pointing out misconceptions about how pressure and vacuum in general affect certain things.
when you picked the marshmallows, you were looking for a way to visualize the otherwise invisible vacuuming process.
cheers !
Great content, great presentation. You deserve more subs so I subbed! :D
Much appreciated!
You saved me some money....thank you
Discount Juicers did a review on a replacement carafe for vacuum blending that fits Vitamix Blenders. I would think a different lid for the Vitamix blenders which seal better and have a vacuum feature would soon be in production for Vitamix down the road though I did reach out to them and the individual I spoke with seemed to not know anything about vacuum blending. Awesome video Henry thank you!
have you reviewed yet the dynapro 2200
I have not reviewed that model.
I have a Blendtec 875 is there a vacuum lead i can purchase for my blender?
I'm not aware of any vacuum product that Blendtec officially makes for resale.
Best blender review ever!
How smooth can it make almond butter?
Sorry I never tried nut butters with this machine.
Great video, as always!
Does the Tribest lid fit the Vitamix carafe? I've heard the carafes fit both machines.
Love the video! If you want your nutrients get a Nama Juicer or a Pure, if your wallet can stand it. Vitamix is probably still the top blender of 2023, for now but stay tuned. You know how they "do" us.
I can see this blender working very well for raw soups. 😃👍
Henry can Vitamix do vaccum blending. Still waiting on my a3500 and i like my food to keep its nutrients. Thanks man, awesome channel.
Hi Fernando. Vitamix does not offer this function. Right now it's not beneficial for most blending needs because it's limited to recipes that don't require the use of the tamper or any interaction of the user such as opening the lid to add ingredients when finishing soups. Often people need the tamper for thick ingredients, even for smoothies. Making hummus or dips and spreads. Making ice cream, etc. The vacuum function is still a gimmick and unless it can be used for all or most blending needs it will be a gimmick. While anything is possible I do not know of Vitamix experimenting with gimmicks that offer limited use.
Hey Henry, I have a question for you.
I have had my Tribest Dynapro for about a year.
At first the distributor gave me the older version with the crappy motor and after six months it broke down. So they replaced with the Swedish one.
Now about two months ago there was a leak in the craft from the blade assembly.
I contacted them about it and they sent out a replacement.
In the meantime I was still using the one with a minor leak in the blade assembly.
Later I realized that there was grease leaking from the blade assembly snd because of the vacuum, it was not dripping down as per usual on most older blenders, but the blade shaft grease was being sucked into the friggin smoothie and salsas.
Do you think this is a major flaw and overlooked issue of all vacuum blenders, because eventually almost blade assemblies begin to leak, but with a vacuum blender it will get grease sucked into whatever your blending and because it’s slow and bubbles when vacuuming anyways, one would not notice it for a while and most likely ingest some toxic grease from the blade assembly.
What are your thoughts on this matter.
I only had the blender a year so far.
Hi, I'm sorry to hear you're going through such unfortunate issues with your vacuum blender. I no longer have my review machine so it's hard for me to give a definitive answer. Vitamix containers will last several years of daily use past the warranty period before the seal begins to have issues so it may depend upon the manufacturer (Tribest in the case) how well built their blade and seal systems are. Best of luck.
What vacuum blender do you personally use?
I do not use a Vacuum blender. There are too many limitations on what recipes can be made under vacuum.
Which do you prefer I was going to get Vitamix what are your thoughts do u like vacuum blending
Vacuum blending is still a "hobby" feature. Many recipes cannot take advantage of it. For example you can't use it for nut butters, dips, frozen desserts or any thick ingredients that may require the need of the tamper. Also even soups are limited. If you want to add ingredients at the end to your soup to make it chunky it requires the lid cap to be removed and air will get in as you're blending your last minute ingredients. Stick with proven technology. Vitamix.
15 year warranty just means how long you will wait for a response if you call customer service with a problem.
Actually Tribest answers phone calls right away.
Thanks a lot for the video. I guess Vitamix is working on a vacuum série! How come they are late?! I still have one question: I do my smoothie before I go to work and I drink it 2 or 3 hours later, so there's no point for me to use a vacuum as it will be oxyded anyways. If I keep it in a vacuumed bottle it prevents a little from oxydation but every time I drink I open the jar and then create some oxydation. What do you think? Ok now I'm being obsessed with oxydation lol
Hi Laure! Yes, you're correct. Once the smoothie gets any exposure to air the time clock starts in terms of oxidation.
Great video. You should, however, mention the warranty issues with the Optimum Blender in a separate video rather than at the end of this one. At first, I thought you were mentioning this issue because Optimum makes the Dynapro, but then I remembered Tribest makes the Dynapro, not Optimum. Other than that, I like this review a lot (thumbs up).
Great review thank you!
Love your reviews!
I've heard about this before and have seen other videos, but as always, you make it so clear and informative for the viewer.
Thank you Bluesocks! Many of my viewers have been asking me about vacuum blending. I wanted to cover it for those interested. 😊
Buy a $49 Oster blender and use a mason jar as your blender jar (same threading), fill it up so there is very little airspace and blend, giving the same benefit as a vacuum blender.
Can it mill grain?
If you're referring to the vacuum blender I have no idea about that as I no longer have this product.
I would love if you review the Froothie Evolve. I wanted to compare it to a3500. I live in UK and i am too worried buying £500 Froothie Evolve if i am then to struggle with customer service as in uk it seems to be run similar to US ie by one or two people only.
Never got a hold of Froothie so I will not be reviewing their product.
@@BlendingWithHenry understood.
Phenomenal video!!!
Thank you so much!!😍
Other than having the money to buy and finding the right kinds of containers for the different kinds of foods, there's nothing stopping anyone from vacuum sealing any sort of container for a gallon of juice, 12 ounces of nut butter, or anything else one would blend after the it's all dealt with.
Hi Henry, it would be more interesting to see both blender working together.
Regarding Froothie I would not recommend, also when living outside USA
I like your videos! I’m that silly guy who bought a Ninja Chef blender. I have always wanted a Vitamix blender, but after watching your demonstration with Ninja Chef vs Vitamix, it really made me want a Vitamix more. However, I have recently bought KitchenAid’s new K400 series blender and love it. Although I already own the blender, I would like to see your review on this blender from KitchenAid or even the KitchenAid Pro Line blender that seems to be getting much hype.
Hi Christopher. Thanks for watching. I have no plans to review Kitchenaid products. Kitchenaid has made it clear that Blending with Henry will not be reviewing their products, so you will never see their blenders on my channel.
Blending With Henry Oh wow! That’s a shame KitchenAid won’t step up to the challenge. I do love how you review the Vitamix blenders. I still may buy one after a while. One can never go wrong with it!
Review of the Kuvings Vacuum Blender vs Vitamix A3500? Can't seem to find a good unbiased one.
Vacuum blending is just not ready for primetime and I'm not sure it will be a mainstream thing. The technology is just too limiting.
@@BlendingWithHenry Limiting how?
It's only useful for very select recipes. Many other recipes won't benefit from vacuum blending. You can't make nut butters as it requires the use of the tamper. You can't make frozen desserts, hummus, dips or even smoothies with tough ingredients for the same reason, or any other recipes that require adding ingredients while blending.
Thanks for an informative video and comparison! I know vitamix comes with different sizes of the cups. Does dyna pro have the same option? Also what specific tasks the tribest couldn’t do well comparing to Vitamix? To me the perfect blender would vitamix with vaccum capability. I am in the market searching for a good blender and the ability to vacuum blend is a must have criteria even that means I need to hack vita mix. Plz share your view point:-)
Great Video, because I was choosing between the Ninja and the Vitamix. We had a Living Well Montel Williams, but it cunkout now my choice is the vitamix hands down
Hi Henry, I just wanted to let you know that when you blend something in a blender, it really isn't juice since it still retains the fiber. What you made here was a smoothie. It's only juice after the fiber has been removed or if it has come out of a juicer, not a blender. You may already know that, but in case you didn't. I hear people get confused a lot with this and it can cause problems when people are told to juice fast for healing and they think that a smoothie is juice and then they don't get the same level of healing. The faster we can clarify that the better. Just a quick FYI. I enjoyed the video. You did a really good job explaining everything. :)
Thanks for the education. Silly me. I'm new to this whole blending stuff. Just started doing all this last year and I'm still learning how to properly make a basic smoothie, and I've never used or even tried a juicer my entire life. 🤷♂️
Whole foods blended juice call it what you want
Hi Henry, will Vitamix be introducing vacuum blending at any point in the near future? Thanks 🙏
I haven't heard anything.
Yea..excellent review. 10/10,..
👋🏽 Hey Henry...I have a curious question do to my observation of the Dynapro versus the Vitamix...
Be it that the crafts of the two units are VERY similar...are lids interchangeable?
If so...could you demonstrate how a Vitamix machine/power would be improved while under vacuum...
Hi Erenst. The container lids are not interchangeable.
Blending With Henry : All man...that’s disappointing...because Vitamix is really dragging their feet in coming up with a lid for their legacy blender models...that would provide the vacuum blending experience...but Henry...thanks for responding to my inquiry...😃👍🏽
Excellent review! I live in the UK and am looking at the Froothie Vaccum Blender. The latest version of the Dyna Pro is not available in Europe for the next couple of months. ( According to Tribest Europe) There are no reviews online on the Froothie. Maybe you can do a review on it??
Hi Stephen! Thanks for watching!! Towards the end of my video I mentioned that Froothie is impossible to get a hold of here in the U.S. I won't be reviewing their product.
Hi mate. Did you get the Froothie at the end? I am trying to decide if the new Evovle is any good over vitamix but i do not much about Froothie Uk abd their customer service
Get a cold pressed juicer and a vitamix
So vitamix designers, make a vacuum accessory please.
Great review
Your video of Vitamix vs Ninja caused me to cancel my ninja order and get a Vitamix Ascent a2500. Are you funded to promote Vitamix?
Thanks for watching. Glad I could help. I am not funded by Vitamix to promote products.
Educational
Thank you!
Vacuum have an ac adapter option?
Nope. Battery only.
Thank you for the great information!
Fascinating stuff 🤪
Why didn’t you blender most stuff for comparison?
It cost a lot of money and time to do the videos.
Hey Henry, keep up the good work! What color was that Vitamix A3500? Black stainless or graphite..
Graphite Metal Finish
The dyna-pro does not come with a recipe book. Do you know where I can find some videos of blending recipe preparation🤔😂. Great thorough review.👍
Blending with Henry does some amazing recipes
Hi Henry, I so enjoy your videos ; I need to comment on this video as you said the Dynapro tripped the circuit breaker, this is not true. The Dynapro tripped the GFI, it trips with detected electrical leakage or Ground Fault in the item plugged into it, it is designed to prevent electrical problems in plunged in items from shocking or electrocuting you. A very good thing for safety.
I had to speak in laymons terms. Not everyone knows about electricity or even knows what GFI means.
I understand Henry, Best to you, Brett
You managed to crack me up because I've heard of this and immediately thought (dismissively) "gimmick"; your opening line asked that very question. I'm also very familiar with Tribest (they've been around a very long time).
Out of curiosity, is this made in Korea (land of the bogus "magnetic and bioceramic technology" for twin-gear juicers)?
Yep, made in Korea! Thanks for always watching! 🙏🏾
300 years ago they'd have burned me as a witch; today I'm psychic. (Did I mention I'm very familiar with Tribest?)
I don't know . . . given that I live an oxygenated life in an oxygenated environment, I'm glad it's pretty ubiquitous. I do agree that green is more appetizing than brown but you can arrest oxidation in fruit by adding a bit of lemon juice, or Vitamin C, or citric acid, or Fruit-Fresh . . . you get the idea. And c'mon, Henry--you KNOW in your heart that Australian company isn't answering the phone because it's always ringing off the hook and their scores of hard-working agents are working 24/7! Cut them some slack! :))
Love your posts! You're making my day! 😂
You just made my night! (I don't have much of a life.)
Actually I just read we have GMO apples that don't turn brown, but I think they're of the red variety.
Hm ! I like the idea, when you blend whey protein you will have a lot of foam in Vitamix. I now have 3 different Vitamix. But it should not be to difficult to make a vacuum can . Talk to Vitamix 😉 all the best from Christer in Stockholm 🇸🇪
Please try making nut butter in a vacuum.
The tamper or scraping is necessary for nut butters so the vacuum feature isn't possible. There's no benefit to vacuum blending nut butter.
@@BlendingWithHenry I appreciate your reply, I understand why it's impractical to make peanut butter in a vacuum.
Could you please show us how to make homemade mayonnaise, please 🙏. Everything turns out so great when you show us how to make it.
@@tonybrian7652 Hi Tony. I made vegan mayo in the Vitamix Aer Disc Container. It's actually a Garlic Aioli but without the garlic it taste nearly 100% like store-bought mayo. See here ➜ ruclips.net/video/98Zrpwk6JBc/видео.html

Thank you so much. God bless.
Why get a vaccum blender if u drink smoothies same day
Because it has no difference if you store them or not. The air is getting whipped up in your smoothie so when you blend it up it increases in volume. Blending in a Vacuum adds less or No Air so no extra volume. Sort of the same concept with Ice Cream and Gelato. Some studies show you are losing nutrition by blending with air compared to no air. If you don't care about it and think its a scam that is ok... just keep blending the usual way. Oxidation is real though and you can see in just a few minutes the difference. The same difference I see in my Norwalk Juicer compared to my 40 dollar Wal Mart Juicer.
You could just take the jar off of the base when you are vacuuming.
No
That would create air...
It would be so easy for Vitamix to simply modify the lids for this at little expense. I don’t understand their resistance, particularly since another company makes available a vaccum container that works on the Vitamix: and the extra control of the Vitamix speed, etc. makes it an ideal candidate for vaccum blending. I just don’t understand their reluctance to do this as it would be so simple.
John, while I understand what you're saying and I'm not saying this shouldn't happen but there's something you should honestly recognize, the vacuum product is extremely limited and I mentioned this in my video. Soups, Smoothies and recipes that do not contain complex ingredients are the only recipes that will benefit at all from vacuum blending. That leaves out nut butters, ice cream, dips/spreads, plus recipes like making mashed potatoes in the Vitamix or blending any other thick ingredients because they require the use of the tamper. Using the tamper requires the lid plug to be opened and vacuum blending cannot be possible. Right now recipe categories are very limited because of this and other than for demonstration purposes there's really no benefit to vacuum blending a smoothie. People that demo this tend to show how long a smoothie will last before separation. Well the ice breaks down and the structure of the smoothie tends to break down if it's not consumed right away so that's another unnecessary need for vacuum blending.
Vitamix really needs to get with the game and offer a vacuum blending option. It shouldn't be that difficult to come up with a lid and pump to fit existing models.
Apparently they just don't care cause they still don't have one 😒
VITAMIX IS THE WINNER ALL THE WAY..
Unless you are then consuming the food in a vacuum, it’s a moot point.
Tribest does not Honor its warranty
Great review; thank you!
Why didn't they make this plastic free? Like with a glass jar, 100% stainless steel blade unit & lid with silicone layer on the inside......isn't their other range of blenders plastic contact free ?
Due to the high power of blenders like this one, Vitamix and Blendtec, a glass carafe will not withstand the pressure of the ice and hard ingredients.
thanks man. Actually, just found out, they do have a Plastic contact free vacuum blender.
www.tribestlife.com/productdisplay/tribest-glass-personal-blender-pbg-5001-glass-single-serving-vacuum-blender
Yes, I'm familiar with that. It's a low powered machine. It's not designed for commercial quality professional blending tasks or for pulverizing tough ingredients such as what the Dynapro 1050A or the Vitamix can do. That's why they can offer it with a glass container. I've spoken to Vitamix, Blendtec and other power blender companies and they all state that there aren't any glass materials that can withstand the pressure. I'm certain in time this may change. One thing to keep in mind. A glass carafe can be very heavy, especially a 64oz carafe that has contains the recipe ingredients such as soups or smoothies.
Just ask me and I will tell you all about it
The newer dynapro models a lot better
It's a GIMMICK. You see that immediately. As by design you cannot use a tamper which is an essential tool in blending. At most these vacuum blenders will be just expensive smoothie blenders.
Great point
