The Aquafaba can be used as a direct replacement for the egg white in many vegan recipes, including meringues and marshmallows. It must be mentioned because the air disc will not crus, but if you have the ice pieces in the final cocktails, a bit agitates it.Īquafaba: The Air Disc recipe booklet is the source where I first time come across the Aquafaba term and, out of curiosity, researched it.Īquafaba (AF) is the water left after cooking some legume seeds like chickpeas, which mimic egg whites’ appearance and nutritional properties (comprises of proteins, carbohydrates, and another plant soluble). Air Disc is so straightforward you just slice your fruits, citrus, and herb ingredients, add them to the container with water, ice, and sweeteners, and the machine makes all the muddling for you. The Air Disc is designed to extract the flavor, pulp, and incense from the ingredients like mint, lemon, orange, and other fruits and herbs, leaving the rind and fiber aside, and it does better than manual muddling technics. And this area is where the Air Disc is excelled. You will not be able to use a muddling technic using your standard Vitamix container.

So you can enjoy your delicious foamy hot chocolate or cappuccino with fewer calories. But the Air Disc jar produces 30–60% more foam for the same time cycle, it can create both hot and cold foams(try the excellent booklet recipe for cold-brewed coffee and ice), and it makes excellent foam with skim milk and non-dairy milk (I tried the almond and coconut and it came out fabulous). The standard Vitamix container makes decent foam too. I tried to make the Peruvian cocktail called Pisco Sours with the whipped egg white from the Air Disc recipe booklet, and it was amazing.įoaming and frothing:The Air Disc excels at making foam. The Air Disc container can make hot and cold whipped cream equally well. You should select 4–6 Vitamix speeds for this task. Whipping: The standard Vitamix Wetblade container is also able to make decent whipped cream, but the Air Disc Container makes it quicker and appears thicker. Here is the Vitamix Air Disc performance for each task: Warning for the Ascent series blenders: Although the Air Disc container looks like a Self-Detect Vitamix Ascent-series jug and is compatible with Ascent machines and works with the Ascent blenders, it is not a self-detect container, so the Ascent programs (such as self-cleaning and others) will not work with this container.ĭisclosure: As an Amazon Associate, we may earn an affiliate commission for purchases you make when using the links on this page.
