Thanks for passing on your observations achookwoman. If the noise level was the same or not enough difference to notice then I might stick with my TM31. The noise level would be the major reason I would upgrade, but for me personally I'd want there to be a significant difference to warrant selling my TM31 + extra bowl and fork out the extra cash for the TM5 + extra bowl. I'd be approx $1000-$1500 out of pocket and aside from the glitzy new look of the TM5, there really aren't any new features that I would use enough. The new butterfly sounds good, but I have a Kitchenaid mixer that I use for Pav's etc.

I hear a lot of people saying that they hate the look of the TM5 but love the look of the TM31. I'm the opposite, I never liked the look of my TM31 but I've grown used to it over the past 2 years. I can't wait for the first review to pop up on here for the TM5!

I'm almost certain that I will upgrade from the TM31 to the TM5 if it's noticeably quieter. The noise is a big factor for me. I wonder how the lid works, does it twist on like the old one or does it just sit straight on? Do the clamps push down automatically when you start the machine or do you press them down with your hands? I'm not a fan of the recipe chip, I doubt that I would use it a lot, like others have mentioned I think it would have been better if it was a universal usb that you could personalise.

I'd really love to know how much quieter the TM5 is over the TM31. One of my children is a very light sleeper so I'm limited with what I can cook in my TM31 of a night when he's in bed

Wonderful mayonnaise!! I tried making mayo for the first time today after having my TMX for almost 2 years, I used the EDC recipe and it failed terribly. What a mess! I came online to find a different recipe instead of trying to save the last batch, I stumbled across this one and it was perfect. Than you so much!

These pancakes are amazing!! I'd go as far as to say they are the best pancakes myself and my family have ever tasted

Thanks Suzanne, good idea about checking the water. I'll make sure I do that before I restart it

We have got this in the thermie for lunch at the moment, smells great! My TMX will only let me select 60 minutes as the maximum cooking time. Obviously I will just set it for another 60 minutes after the initial time runs out but I was just wondering if I was doing something wrong and maybe it can be set for a longer cooking time?

Yeah I think you're right, it wouldnt be very appetising to have a beetroot paste salad

I had this at my demo and it was nice. I wonder how it would go with whole baby beets from a can which I assume would be cooked? It might be sweeter but perhaps a bit mushy?

I made this yesterday for lunch. I cut the amount of rice by 100g and used a red onion instead of spring onion as that's all I had. I also quickly fried off all the vegies before adding the rice into the wok. It was delicious and made heaps even though I added less rice. I only had pure sesame oil like a previous poster mentioned, not sure what the taste difference would be but we were very happy with the recipe and will make it again

I received my Kitchenaid as a gift a few years ago. I didn't think I would get much use out of it after I got my TMX, but I do. IMO it is superior for making cakes, biscuits, pavlovas and mousses. In saying that, I still make some biscuits and cakes in the TMX if they are a TMX recipe. I love the way my KA creams butter and sugar, I've never been able to get my TMX to replicate the way my KA does it. I love the vintage industrial look of my KA

We had this sauce tonight served with some steamed chicken breasts and vegies. We really like the flavour of the sauce but it didn't really thicken, even on standing (like it said). I will make it again because it definitely has potential, I might use cornflour instead of flour next time and use a but more than it stated. Overall, nice tasting but needs to be a thicker consistency. 3/5

No problems Gert! I've just sent an email to the company to see if they're planning on bringing out a 4 slice version in the near future

She is going into the BBQ.
Another beer ass chicken. Thank you Coles for making his. Hickey down from $10.33 to $4.50

Oooh is that a Magimix vision toaster I see behind your chook?! I've been eyeing these off for a while! I wish they'd make a 4 slice as that's what we need for our family! Are you happy with it?
Yes it is . I bought it from Peters of Kensington last year I think. Best toaster I have even owned and believe me I have owned a few. I was hesistant about buying a two slice but it does fit 4 ordinary slices at once. Also long slices, thick slices and easy to clean. I love it to bits and if it ever dies I will buy another immediately.
Does crumpets to a tee.
I love that you can see the toast a toasting.
Gert
Thanks for that Gert! I have owned a few aswell and none of them have been what I would call great. My parents bought a Magimix toaster a few years ago before the vision ones were available (looks like yours without clear side panels) and they love it. I might pop one on my wishlist and hope that Santa brings me one for Xmas!
