Vitamix Aer Disc Container, 48 oz, BPA-Free, Dishwasher-Safe, Compatible with All Full-Size Vitamix Blenders

Had this in my wish list about two weeks before it was actually released by Vitamix. One day I got that “item in your cart has a price change”... immediately clicked Buy Now! Saved a pretty penny (nearly $30) and received it exactly on time (the day Vitamix released it). It works fabulously. Muddled drinks, perfect frothes skim milk for coffee drinks and fast & easy whipped cream in seconds. Cleanup is a breeze. Super solid construction and feels like a quality piece. Vitamix containers are expensive anyway but I always check Amazon first. In this case Amazon saved me $$$ . I was going to and would have paid full price but am thrilled I didn’t have to. Just be aware and read the info section as this container is more specialized and may not fit your needs.

I’ve been interested in Aer Disc since it was released but couldn’t justify the investment, so when I needed something to offset a pity-party I opted to take the plunge and give Aer Disc a try.Pros: does a great job producing muddled fruit water (shown), perfect for those times when I want flavor but not a full-on juice.Cons: to date I’ve not been able to produce foamy or emulsified concoctions with non-dairy milk, but I’m still experimenting. Fingers crossed 🤞 that more time and testing will produce that which I seek.Cheers!

Great product for my kitchen.

I don't drink coffee so I don't know what the foamy milk thing is and I don't like Mojitos, but I bought an AER anyway. I make my own syrups for sodas so I thought this might be helpful, but not so much I'd buy one. However, I LOVE homemade gingerale. I used to make it all the time but it takes so long, but mostly involves more clean up than I want, so I stopped. I bought the AER specifically to make gingerale. Anything else I make in it is a bonus.I wasn't sure if the 5 minutes at high speed was enough to extract the ginger flavor including the real spicy-ness I love, but it does! It made fantastic ginger syrup! I threw the ginger in to the food processor and sliced it up. Then 2 cups water, 1.5 cups sugar and a heaping 3/4 cup sliced ginger in to the AER. 5 minutes later it was awesome ginger syrup. All I had to do was strain it in to a jar and I was ready for gingerale. Cleaned up so fast, I had everything done, washed, sliced, ingredients in, blend and cleaned, bottled and put away in about 15 minutes.Now I need to test seriously reducing the sugar amount and seeing how large the ginger chunks can be to make this work. I know this attachment isn't for everyone, but for me, it is a game changer!

makes good lemonade and special barista like coffee add ons

...if you want frothy hot chocolate in just six minutes, you've got to get this for your Vitamix. I was really happy to see that it works with my 12-year old Vitamix. Simply add cold milk and your favorite cocoa/sugar, and let it go on high for 6 minutes. This is the easiest hot chocolate I've ever made.

I love this thing! I'm a huge fan of cocktails, especially cosmos and mojitos. This makes it so much easier than using a cocktail shaker. Just slice up the lime and throw everything in with a bunch of ice. Works amazingly well at getting the juice out of the lime, never tastes bitter. I haven't used it for mayonnaise or the like, but I can't imagine it wouldnt work wonderfully. We use this all the time. It is expensive but I was lucky to get it on sale.

I believe Vitamix use the trust we have for them to put out products without given all information to the consumer. I was excited to use this machine mainly to create cold foam. Nothing I tried worked as advertised. After a while i realized it was the milk. Now on non dairy milk options I was not expecting to be great but it did not do anything at all. But on half and half or whole milk is should have work. But it did not. It only works with non-fat milk. I called Vitamix and told them they should disclose that. They stated they would let their chef’s know the recepies only work with non-fat milk and stated they use that mild for health reasons. As i explained to the rep i understand that however as a consumer i should know I can only use one type of milk with it. We should be informed and companies need to stop using deceitful practices to sell products. I will be returning this.
