Questions? Technical Issues? The Survival Guide / Re: Leaky Lid

Yes my seal is all black in colour. I checked the seal for splits where you indicated yours was split, but I couldn't see anything at all.  I remember this was also the case when the first seal went.

You mentioned that the all black seal is the old style seal.  What is the new style seal like?

The machine is probably the better part of 2 to 3 years old.  The first seal seemed to die after close on 12 months.

There wouldn't have been a raspberry seed stuck in there because I cleaned everything manually in the sink after I noticed the leak.  I have experimented with it a little for the last hour with no success.  Even if I fill the bowl half full of water and just blitz it briefly with the turbo button, it still leaks out after the first press.

I inspected the seal for any nicks and it seems perfectly intact.  Are these seals considered consumable items?

Hi everyone,

I was washing the bowl today after wizzing up a delicious fruity dream, and water started leaking out of the side of the bowl where the lid meets the bowl.  As I recall, this is the second time it's happened.  The first time, I reported the problem to our consultant, and the seal was replaced.  Everything was fine after that.  Until today that is.

When the seal was replaced, and it fixed the problem, I just put it down to being a once-off unusual hiccup which can happen with complex kitchen gizmos.  Since this has happened again, I am starting to think perhaps this is not the case.

Has anyone else found this problem with their Thermomix?

Cheers,

Casper.

This recipe is also fabulous with the addition of crab meat.  Follow the recipe and before you add the egg at the end, spoon in 170g of canned crab meat (drained).  If you like, you could leave the egg out entirely since the egg is just to simulate crab meat anyway.  Enjoy!
