Magic Bullet Techniques
The “Pulse” Technique
Because the Magic Bullet’s motor is so powerful, if
you aren’t careful you can quickly overprocess food
and turn it into mush. That is why when you want
to make foods such as chunky salsa, or coarse
chopped onions, the Pulse technique is key.
Pulsing takes a tiny bit of getting used to, but once
you get a feel for it, you’ll be a Pro in no time!
To Pulse you simply press down on the cup very
quickly and immediately release. For foods that
you want coarsely chopped, a quick tap on the top
of the cup is all you need. Then let the blades
come to a complete stop and tap again until you
get the consistency you desire.
blade. If the blade still seems obstructed, twist off the blade and
carefully (it’s sharp) spin the blade manually. Once the blade will
spin, plug the Magic Bullet back in and try again — you should be
good to go.
Never run the Magic Bullet for more than one minute at
a time, as it can cause permanent damage to the motor. If
the motor stops working, unplug the Power Base and let it
cool for a few hours before attempting to use it again. Your Magic
Bullet has an internal thermal breaker that shuts the unit off when it
overheats. Letting the thermal breaker cool down should allow it to
reset.
