I always use my TM spatula cos its great, however sometimes when I am trying to get the last drop out I use a skinny silicone.

I don't use it as I find it bulky and heavy to use but then again I have had injuries where I need to now look after my hands and so naturally look for lighter options now. I do like the TMX spatula, just wish it was lighter as then the bulkiness of it wouldn't affect me either.

I have just realised what I would really like to see in the next model.  As well as heating I would like to see a cooling element that would enable us to churn icecream in the machine. My idea of the super perfect thermomix.

I would like a better pourer/spout.  It's hard to get things into jars and bottles, and not everything can go through a funnel.

I'm just going to say again that I wish it would do a higher temperature for making sweets/candy.  I wanted to make treacle toffee for my bonfire party last night, but couldn't be bothered to uncover the hob and stand there, but the thermomix (which would be absolutely perfect for making it) stops just shy of the temperature I would need.  Sigh.  :(

Better get back to being serious - sorry ILB - nice to be optimistic.  It is a good thing.

Wish that there was a better range of temperatures - so 82oC -for custards, 62oC for cooking eggs,

Wish the scales were a little more sensitive too - sure that technology is improving so both will be possible.

I agree - better temperature modulation - not being able to get between 80 and 90 is frustrating.
More accurate scales at lower weights, say 1mg increments until 200g
A silicon spatula - great idea (I use one anyway, but not when the machine is running)
Better aeration with the butterfly
Freezing as well as heating for the ice-cream making!

But I wouldn't give mine up for lack of these things.

Freezing would be great - I thought that it must be able to do that when I heard they make great sorbets.

Wonder how hard it would be?

Ooh, yes, freezing would be fantastic, but would probably add around $1000 to the price if you think about refrigerants etc.

A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

a bar code reader so I could scan the empty packet as I use it...connected to the net of course, and when I hit send, it would send my shopping list to the shop and the groceries would arrive on my doorstep the next day...have I gone too far with the fantasy??  ;)

Maybe a dedicated chef and housekeeper to do it all while I relax?

No way - I'm just going to think about a recipe and have the kitchen robot create while I drink cocktails.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D   :-))

Having made lots of milkshakes lately for my son who is studying for final school exams, I'd like the Thermomix to have a spout to help with pouring.

Yes, that would be good when putting jam into mini jam jars too.
