KitchenAid Artisan Blender K400 Onyx Black

Designed to deliver the perfect taste. The K400 variable speed blender features a 3-part blending system that easily blends even the toughest ingredients, from kale to almonds and more. With a powerful vortex created by the ribbed jar design, unique asymmetric blade that blends at four distinct angles, and Intelli-Speed® Motor Control, which senses contents and maintains the optimal speed to power through all ingredients. Control the taste and texture with the 5-speed variable speed dial, or use the 3 Preset Recipe Programs: Ice Crush, Icy Drinks, and Smoothie. The Soft Start® Feature starts the motor at a slower speed to pull food into the blade then quickly increases to the selected speed setting to avoid splatter.

KITCHENAID’S EXPERTLY CRAFTED 3-PART BLENDING SYSTEM: 1.5 PEAK HP MOTOR (WITH INTELLI-SPEED), UNIQUE ASYMMETRIC BLADE AND RIBBED JAR
These 3 parts work together in harmony to power through tough ingredients for smoother results and to produce perfect texture and taste. Motor horsepower for the blender motor was measured using a dynamometer, a machine that laboratories routinely use to measure the mechanical power of motors. KitchenAid’s 1.5 peak horsepower (HP) motor reference reflects the horsepower output of
the motor itself and not the Blender’s horsepower output in the blender jar. As with any blender, the power output in the jar is not the same as the horsepower of the motor itself.

Adaptive Motor and Intelli-Speed Motor Control
Senses contents and maintains the optimal speed to power through all ingredients
Unique Asymmetric Stainless Steel Blade, Sharpened and Precisely Angled
Blends at 4 distinct angles to pull ingredients into the centre to power through the toughest ingredients.
1.4L Ribbed Plastic Jar

INCLUDES

1.4L Graded Ribbed Plastic Jar

• Square jar shape with enhanced inner ribs increase the turbulence and power inside the jar.
• The raised inside corners force ingredients into the blending vortex and the bevelled upper corners make pouring easy.
• Designed and engineered to further optimize the blender’s performance.
• Single wall jar: marked capacity is 1.4 L.
• Dishwasher-safe

Vented Solid-Seal Lid with Removable Ingredient  Measuring Cap (up to 60ml)

• Fits securely on the jar, minimizing spills when in use.
• The lid is made out of silicon and is easy to remove and to clean.
• BPA-free cap for measuring and adding ingredients during blending.
• Dishwasher-safe

Asymmetric Stainless Steel Blade

• Sharpened and precisely angled to optimize power and blend performance.
• Blends at 4 different angles.
• 3 mm thick hardened stainless steel blade.
• Dishwasher-safe

3 Pre-Recipe Programs: Ice Crush, Icy Drinks, Smoothie

• Ice crush setting: Blender runs at the optimal speed. It provides bursts of pulses from 600 RPM to 1000 RPM for 30 seconds, to allow the ice to settle into different positions and then go back to chopping at high speed.
• Icy drink setting: Gradually ramps up to full power to blend hard food. The blender delivers perfect ice crushing results by starting at 6000 RPM for 10 seconds, 4000 RPM for 5 seconds, 12000 RPM for 10 seconds, 16000 RPM for 5 seconds to deliver fine, ice-crush consistency.
• Smoothie setting: Takes the guesswork out of blending by providing the optimal time and speed needed to make delicious tasting smoothies. The blender will automatically operate at high speed of 14000 RPM for 45 seconds to tackle tough ingredients and deliver smooth, consistent results.

BPA-Free Tamper

• Goes easily through the lid to help mix ingredients and provide ultimate control. For large or ultra-thick blends.
• Made out of plastic and rubber.
• Dishwasher-safe.
• Many times there will be no need to use the tamper as the blender delivers excellent performance but it will provide the ultimate control over the blend.
• When it comes to high-speed blending, there are instances where an air pocket is formed over the blade, causing the ingredients to bridge. The tamper allows to quickly intervene and push ingredients into the blending vortex, allowing the blend to continue to optimal consistency. Large quantities, ultra-thick blends without liquid such as nut butter, hummus and sorbet, may require more tamper interaction.
