Vitamix Ascent 2300i Red from Vitamix is the new Vitamix blender model from the Ascent series, which offers us the same power and robustness as the other models. Equipped with variable speed and pulse button for maximum texture control in each recipe, the Vitamix Ascent 2300i incorporates the latest Vitamix innovations: updated design, transparent lid with new sealing system, compatibility with different types of jars and glasses shredding and digital display to adjust the shredding time more easily. Type B Plug Vitamix Ascent 2300i offers us the usual features of the Vitamix blender, incorporating these novelties that differentiate it from other blenders on the market: Optimized motor: the Vitamix Ascent 2300i motor has a power of 2.2 HP and up to 1400W. The entire Ascent range from Vitamix emits less start-up sound, being Vitamix's quietest mixers today (this is a small difference, but they actually make a little less noise than other mixers of the same size). Compatibility with different sizes of jugs and glasses to adapt to the needs of each moment. The optional 600 and 225 ml beakers are now available, so you can grind smaller amounts of ingredients. The 600 ml glass is a take away glass, perfect for transporting the shake to work, to the gym or wherever you want. No Dry Food Pitcher Needed - The new Vitamix Ascent series doesn't need a separate pitcher to process dry foods like previous models (not a must, but there was the option). With Vitamix Ascent you can use any of the glasses or jug for all types of food. SELF-DETECT technology is a new and exclusive wireless connectivity system that detects the size of the crushing jugs and cups and, thanks to this, automatically adjusts the settings of the chosen program and duration. This optimizes the operation of the machine, crushing in each case exactly what is necessary to obtain the perfect result. INTERLOCK technology: security system that prevents the machine from starting if the jug, the glass or the lid are not correctly placed. The lid also has a new, totally secure closure system, which emits a "click" once it is fitted correctly. In addition, the blender does not work if a jug or glass is not placed on the base and if the lid is not properly seated (it shows a prohibition symbol on the display). Control Panel: Vitamix Ascent 2300i has on / off button, Pulse button, and variable speed control button (1-10). Digital display: the digital panel shows the crushing time while the machine is running. Pitcher: 2-liter capacity and low profile, so it fits well under kitchen cabinets and is easier to handle and clean. With an easy and non-drip pouring system. New completely transparent lid: for full visibility of the shredding process. It includes a cap that can be removed to add ingredients to the jug and which in turn serves as a measuring cup. The new lid offers greater safety, since thanks to the incorporation of INTERLOCK technology, if the lid is opened with the mixer running, it will stop instantly. Blades: made of stainless steel, 5 cm in diameter, laser cut and do not need to be sharpened. Completely renewed design that integrates perfectly into any kitchen. Contains European plug. It is recommended to optimize the diet of athletes, for people interested in getting the most out of nutrients or increasing the amount of vegetables in their diet. Also for all those who want to eat more raw or semi-raw foods. Vitamix facilitates a healthy lifestyle, thanks to its simplicity of use, self-cleaning and the smooth and pleasant texture of its preparations.
