Most times, all you need to do is a quick blend with soapy water and rinse. My favorite thing about the BlendJet 2 is how easy it is to clean. When I enabled Pulse Mode, it annihilated the thick ice cream. One quick flip upside-down and a shake loosened things up, and it started right up. The indicator light on the blender turned red.

After adding my milk, chocolate syrup, and then a couple of scoops of vanilla ice cream, I pressed the blend button, but the blender froze up. During a late-night sweet tooth episode, I made a milkshake. Occasionally, ingredients will get stuck.

It worked well for making a pair of frozen margaritas, but because of its narrow lid opening, if you had lots of fresh fruit you'll have to slice them into smaller pieces. I've also used it to chop nuts while baking and to make a creamy tomatillo salad dressing. It didn't skip a beat blending frozen blueberries, yogurt, ice cubes, and a banana. The portable blender also makes refreshing smoothies. You can even push and hold the button for three seconds to lock the blender, so it won't accidentally turn on in your bag or when you're drinking from it. Double-press it to enable pulse mode, which is better suited for chopping tougher ingredients and achieving a chunkier texture. Pushing its button once makes the blender's six blades spin continuously for 20 seconds. Unlike most countertop blenders, the BlendJet 2 has just a single speed setting. The BlendJet 2 has two separate modes that you'll alternate between depending on what you blend. Speaking as someone who normally gulps down protein shakes as fast as possible to just get them over with, I found that with the BlendJet, my drink tasted more flavorful and less chalky.

One blend cycle did the trick and my shake was perfectly smooth and free of chunky bits of leftover powder. So, I did just that and added some milk, a heaping scoop of whey protein, and a teaspoon of powdered peanut butter. The user guide recommends pouring in liquids first and then solids with some room at the top. The first drink I made was - you guessed it! - a protein shake. The jar can also be detached from the base for deep cleaning, but you'll mostly keep the two together since the BlendJet was designed to be drunk from directly.

The portable appliance is made from three main parts: there's the jar, a lid (which screws atop the jar and includes a wrist strap to help make the blender easier to carry) and the base (which holds the motor, battery, and blade assembly). It comes in several bright colors, is primarily made from BPA-free plastic, has a waterproof USB-C port for recharging, and features a single button on its front for power and changing blend modes. I've been using the BlendJet 2 regularly for a month now and won't go back to my shaker bottle anytime soon.įor those who are unfamiliar, the BlendJet 2 is a single-serving personal blender that's about the size of a water bottle. When I got the chance to test out BlendJet's latest battery-powered portable blender, I sprung at the opportunity in hopes of finding a much better alternative. I hate them! They don't do a good job at breaking down my protein powder, creatine, or PB2 and they almost always smell terrible - even after cleaning them. Over the years, I've accumulated a drawerful of those shaker bottles that come with the wire whisks. Like millions of others, I end my weightlifting workouts with a protein shake. The Brief: This portable blender works surprisingly well despite its small shape and battery-powered motor. The Tester: Brandon Carte, protein shake drinker who has had his last straw with shaker bottles There are a lot of cool things out there that make us wonder - do they really work? In our I Tried It series, we set out to use them in the real world and have determined that, in fact, they really do.
