Interesting Cookie1. I have had to get the panel replaced at on stage as I wore out the buttons. It was a bit costly as you have to send it over to WA at the mercy of their repair costs. As you, I am now hesitant to ask them as they will ask me to send it off again.. and also.. I then have to be without it for that duration. That is what probably deters me more.. ha ha

Hi Guys, I have had my TM 31 about 12 years or so. I am noticing that when I go to speed 5 now.. it seems to sound like it is speeding up and slowing down a little.. going back and forth, rather than smooth sounding. yet it seems to work fine. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with how the motor slowly dies, or how long they last etc. It is still working fine.. but not sure if it is slowly dying after 12 years of a good pummelling Any experiences/advice appreciated Cheers

Thanks for the reply Cookie1. Great to hear I am not the only one. I am not too worried about it.. will wait and see how much it perishes. They may be eventually replaced perhaps?

Has anyone had an issue with the buttons wearing through on their Thmx. I have had my Thmx about 7 years now. It doesn't miss a beat, however I noticed the rubber + and - buttons are gradually perishing, wearing through the rubber. They still work fine. Any one other there had a similar issue?
Thanks

I agree with Wonder.. low fat products are abundant and ppl are heavier than ever. Loaded with sugar & chemicals - For eg low fat yoghurt is higher in calories than a full fat one.
In regards to weight loss... It is keeping the weight off that is hard for most ppl, rather than losing it. Try to find a lifestyle/regime that is going to keep the weight off long term. Can anyone really live on Herbalife or 2 shakes a day etc for the rest of your life?? It's a lifestyle thing...
Good luck with your challenge.

Hi Sara.. yes possibly.. however being a lactose free milk, I imagine you would have to add something like a little honey or sugar for the bacteria to feed on. Off memory, I think it is the lactose that feeds the bacteria.

Good one Kulsha... keep us posted is you come up with some nice variations on it. I'll probably try a choc/peppermint choc chip variation next... the sky is the limit when it comes to ice cream

Hi Amy... there is a very slight banana flavour. I think the idea of the banana is to sweeten it naturally and it adds to the creaminess of the icecream. Mango will be OK, but it probably won't be as creamy and may harden up a bit more due to the juice. What you could probably do, is put it in ice trays, and then re-blitz in Thmx before serving (if you don't have an icre-cream machine). The other option is to add a Tblsp of alcohol - so it doesn't freeze as much.

Kulsha.. this ice-cream remains very creamy and not does not set rock hard. So it's very easy to scoop out and eat lots

This is a lovely thick, creamy ice-cream which is incredibly easy to make, healthy & delish to eat.
Ingredients
1 cup raw cashews (optionally soak in some water for 1/2hr before and rinse off, for a creamier ice-cream) I cup water 1/2 banana 1/4 cup of maple syrup or raw honey or agave syrup (your preferred sweetener) pinch sea salt 1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional mixers - eg 1/4 cup chopped dark chocolate, nuts etc Optional: to make as a chocolate ice-cream add 1/4 cup raw cacao or cocoa powder and a good dash of cinnamon
Directions
Blend all ingredients (except mixers) in the Thrmx - Speed 9, 1 min
* If you don't have an ice-cream maker - transfer to a covered stainless steel or tupperware type bowl and freeze for 30 mins. Then add and mix through any optional mixers (eg chopped dark choc) and place back in freezer and continue freezing for 6-8 hrs
* If using and ice-cream maker - churn for about 25-30 mins. Add any optional mixers and mix for another 5 mins. Transfer to covered bowl and freeze for 6-8hrs

Quick, easy, economical way to make popcorn. No chemicals, additives or pots or pans. Put 1/4 cup popping corn in a brown paper bag Fold over top twice (to hold it in) Microwave on high for 2mins 10 secs Add any topping you might like - salt, chocolate, cheese etc Enjoy!

I have made a few more test batches in consultation with the world expert tomato sauce taste tester (DH). I have adjusted the recipe slightly (adjustments made in original). I have reduced the amount of honey and increased the sugar slightly. He was rapped with the last batch so I may have conquered the mountain and made it to the summit LOL
