Thank you. The thermoserver looks fine, maybe a slight discolouration on the bottom. I think he had only just put it onto the hot plate when I got home. But it's good to know if something happens to it I can get in touch with a consultant.

Sorry you didn't get a reply. I used the silicon ones to make some steamed lemon puddings from Alyce A's book. Metal ones would work too.

Questions? Technical Issues? The Survival Guide / Thermoserver
« on: October 16, 2013, 12:18:39 am »
Hi. I have two questions. I had put my meal in the thermoserver in the afternoon and then put it in the fridge. I asked my husband to heat it up when he got home ready for when we got home from swimming. I meant to heat the meal but he had put the thermoserver on the stove top. He couldn't get why I was so mad! So, would it have been okay to have left the hot meal on the bench and not put it in the fridge? It would have been out for 3 hours or so if I had. And secondly, am I right in that it shouldn't go on the stove? Thanks

Questions? Technical Issues? The Survival Guide / Re: Question for Crio Bru Drinkers...

Tenina's site has a good selection of recipes for ways to use Crio Bru.
I like my Crio straight. It does help with feeling full and helps satisfy chocolate cravings. I'm not a coffee drinker and only occasionally tea.
The fatty stuff wasn't as noticeable in my first bag but more so in subsequent. Not so nice. Thank you for researching it.

Thanks again for your thoughts. I couldn't find any of the Nestlé moulds either (or I did but couldn't find it again). I did get some Masterchef silicone pudding moulds from Spotlight of all places. They have a bigger volume, 240 mls if I remember correctly. Will let you know how they work out.

Hi. I would like to try using dark ole moulds in the varoma but don't own any at present. I read an old thread where they recommended some plastic ones but when I went to the site it recommended the top temp for the moulds was 120 degrees. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Sorry, the butter was a bonus.  I was trying to whip cream and listen at the same time to my husband.  It doesn't take long to whip!

Hi, I'm from the northside of Brisbane and purchased a Thermomix a few weeks ago.  I have been eyeing it off for years and had a demonstration in November last year.  Finally saved enough and been really happy.  Mum to two primary aged boys.  No special dietary needs but a desire to eat better.
I would read about all the things that people make in a short time of owning a thermomix and didn't think I would be like that.  My husband teases me that I like playing with my new toy. 

What have I made so far?
Banana smoothies - the boys  keep asking for them.
Pumpkin soup
Pizza dough
custard
CADA - I really like this
apple porridge
Quirky cooking's fried rice (yum!)
bolognaise
pastry
chocolate cake
green smoothies
potato and bacon soup
meatloaf
mashed potato
vege concentrate
hot chocolate
butter (mistake!)
vanilla icecream

From that list I don't know if that sounds like I'm eating any better! But it's what's being left out (additives) that I hope will count.
But it's going well and I'll enjoy looking around. Thanks.
