How does the thermomix cope with 2 kg mince and 1 kg of tomatoes? Is it above the 2 litre mark?

Had to use low speed, but it worked ;)

EDIT: Oh, and it could be some water weight as well. Don't know about now, but there was a lot of controversy some time ago about companies adding crushed ice to their mince...

When I cook mince now in the TM I put it in the basket with the sauce below.

There is a post 'cooking mince in the TM' that I followed.

Hmmm...that's a really interesting tip! I just need to find out how much it holds. I usually aim for 2kg of mince and 1kg of tomatoes ;)

Thanks,

I've thought about stopping and unpacking it, but that can become a chore pretty quick with my 8-10 hour pasta sauce ;)

Does anyone have any good tips on how to avoid meat and minces packing around the blades when cooking? I've had this problem with several kinds of meats, but mostly minces and shaved meat. I usually run it at speed 2 reverse in order to not pulverize the meat and I've also tried the normal direction.

I would really appreciate any good tips here as I'm a bit stumped. I'd rather not increase the speed - I'd actually want to reduce the speed so that my meat sauce, for instance, would have bigger lumps of meat in it.

Thanks!
