I love the ginger beer recipe Lady Ricey and would make it more often if ginger wasn't so expensive.  It took me ages to get around to boiling eggs in the TMX but wouldn't do it any other way now. I also find it annoying that there are no details of how many serves recipes produce, with drinks I just add up the mls of all the ingredients (mainly talking cocktails here) and work it out from there, easy to just make one glass that way. Glad to see you are enjoying your cooking once more.

Hi Hanner, welcome to the forum. Sounds like you have just purchased your TMX but before you go converting some of your favourite recipes I would suggest you try some from the forum or the book which came with your machine.  This will give you the feel for the machine and will be a great help when it comes to converting your own recipes.   It took me a while before I did any myself.  Having said that, what is it you want to convert? Put the recipe up for others to look at and we may be able to help - you obviously think the recipe could be done in the TMX.

I have just found this on Quirky Jo's blog - great advice http://quirkycooking.blogspot.com/2010/10/converting-recipes-for-thermomix.html

Hi and welcome Hanner. I agree that it may be best to familiarise yourself with your machine before you start converting. How long have you had your TMX? Do you have a wonderful consultant who can help you?
If you want to make a family favourite find something in the cookbook that is similar and that will give you some idea of times and temperatures.
Another great idea is to do as Judy suggested. Post the recipe here and people will help you convert it.
Happy Thermomixing.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
