Having a high-performance culinary blender is absolutely crucial in any commercial kitchen. A consumer-grade blender just isn’t going to cut it; you need power, precision, and durability.
But which type is best: A portable immersion blender or a countertop culinary blender? That depends on the day’s menu.
Use your immersion blender
When you’re multitasking in a hurry
Portability is the #1 benefit of an immersion blender. Carry it to the range, and blend right in the pots on the stovetop. Move it to the salad prep station to blend a vinaigrette. Grab it for the sauce station when you need 
to whip up a chimichurri or hollandaise. When you need to blend something à la minute, the BigRig™ immersion blender is the tool you’ll reach for.
When your dishwashing crew is in the weeds
Every time you use an immersion blender to blend in a pot, bowl, or other vessel, you’ve saved your dishwashing team from washing a dish. BigRig™ commercial immersion blenders are incredibly easy to clean between jobs, too. Detach the shaft with a twist, spray and sanitize it (or swap in a new one) and go. The shafts are also dishwasher-safe.
When you’re making large-batch quantities
Chefs in high-volume restaurants, cafeteria/dining hall kitchens or healthcare settings especially need a blender that’s built for large quantities. Our largest BigRig™ immersion blender, which has a 21”/533mm shaft, has a blending capacity up to 42 gallons/159 liters. With one of the most powerful motor in its class*, there’s virtually nothing the BigRig™ can’t handle.
*120V unit motor is rated at 800W and the 230V unit motor is rated at 1000W
Of course, the EXPEDITOR™ family of culinary blenders can easily handle large volumes as well, with a jar that’s up to 1 gallon/4 liters. Chefs can fill the jar just about to the top without leaks or uneven blending.
Use your culinary blender
When you need a perfectly smooth blend
When making soups, sauces, and other foods that need to be absolutely, uniformly smooth, a food blender is your best bet. With their powerful motors, EXPEDITOR™ culinary blenders easily blend mixtures to an even consistency.
When you need precision
Hamilton Beach Commercial culinary blenders are incredibly precise machines, capable of blending, grinding, pureeing, and emulsifying at various speeds. The CHOP function is a special feature available on Hamilton Beach Commercial culinary blenders.
