Hey guys it's Shalva with Life is NOYOKE.
Today we're talking about the
new 48 ounce containers for the Vitamix
Ascent Series.
We've got both the wet
and the dry.
So if you watch the video by
the end that we're going to have a recommendation on which
one we think that you should get.
OK. So what do you need to know about
both the 48 oz containers.
What do they have in common.
They both have a narrower
body than the 64 ounce that
your machine came with.
Narrow body means smaller
minimum batch size than
the wider base.
They also both come
with a temper.
They each come with a small
Getting Started recipe guide that
goes with each model.
And the last thing is that they both
have this self detect technology
on the bottom which makes it
a model that you can use on the Ascent Series.
You wouldn't be able to use something without Self-Detect
technology on the
Ascent Series.
So there's one more thing that
the 48 ounce containers have in common which is
unlike the 20 ounce
and the 8 ounce for the Ascent
Series, which we love,
the 48 ounce ones are vented,
and they also have a lid plugs
so you can use your tamper
to really control the texture
which means you can make frozen desserts
and nut butters.
OK. So let's talk about these individually.
So the wet container
if I can reach it over here.
The wet container is exactly
like your 64 ounce wider
body container.
It does all the same things.
It makes smoothies,
juices, nut butters,
hot soups,
frozen desserts,
dressings.
What haven't I said?
Dips and sauces.
It makes all the things that the 64
ounce container does.
It just makes them in a smaller batch size for you.
Let's talk about the dry.
48 ounce Ascent container.
It has a similarly smaller
blade. It's three inches as compared
to four inches.
Three three and four.
So too much information?
No. Okay.
But the blade is shaped differently.
So the blade is shaped in order to
send ingredients up into
the container as opposed to pulling
them down.
It is specifically designed to grind
dry grains by sending them up.
Otherwise the two models
are identical.
So another nice thing about the dry
greens container is that it's a
dedicated container for
one purpose. So yes it's
built to grind dry grains
but also it keeps
your main primary container
clean and unscratched.
Dry geains do kind of
bump the sides a little bit
and can start to wear
down your main container.
So if you have a dedicated container
to do dry grains for you
then you keep your old container
or your main container looking like new
or newish depending on how often you use it.
Less scratchy.
Less scratched.
All right so before we make a recommendation
for those of you that want to buy just one of these,
we have a frequently asked question
we'd like to answer
and that is how tall are they.
So I want to prove
to you that they are exactly
the same height
or using a level here.
So it will sit exactly
where 64 ounce container is sitting.
Whether you get the wet
or the dry Ascent Series container.
OK. So what's our recommendation.
Well we're going to say the same thing that we said
with the older models
with the 32 ounce container which is
to get the wet container.
We absolutely love having
a smaller secondary container.
We use it all the time.
We sometimes want to make a smaller batch.
And so it's really helpful to have that
secondary wet container around.
So frozen desserts.
I don't have to make 17 bananas
worth of frozen dessert
or a nut butter.
I can make a reasonable amount because
I'll probably eat all of it no matter how big
of a batch I make.
So it's a reasonable amount.
Now that doesn't mean the dry container isn't
amazing. It is especially
if you're already into grinding
up your own grains if you have food
allergies at home
and you like to make your own flours.
It's a really helpful tool.
But if you want something that you're going to use
often we recommend going
with the wet container.

Wait, you can't tell from the front. Because you're wearing black.
How about from the sides?
The side is better for some reason?
Well, it's, yeah.
