FAQ
What is the first thing to make with a Vitamix?
The best introduction to your Vitamix blender is through a simple, fruit-based smoothie recipe like the three-ingredient Basic Fruit Smoothie. Next, move on to a fruit-and-veg combo like our Going Green Smoothie, which calls for green grapes as well as fresh spinach leaves.
What can you not put in a Vitamix?
Hard vegetables such as carrots and celery should not be put in a blender either, as they can cause damage to the blades and other components of the machine. Instead of putting hard vegetables into a blender, consider grating them by hand or using a food processor or vegetable chopper.
Is Costco Vitamix different?
Vitamix created these models specifically for Costco, as lower cost options that fit under standard kitchen cabinets. They combine the older-style base with the newer short/wide 64-oz container. The only difference between the 5300 and the 6500 is that the 6500 adds 3 preset program modes.
