Ninja UltraCrush 1000W Professional Blender Gray BP201

A: This model isn't recommended for processing thick nut butters because the ingredients tend to get pushed to the sides of the pitcher away from the stacked blades. We recommend using a food processor bowl attachment or a specialized Twisti which features built-in tampers to push thick ingredients back down onto the high-speed bottom blades.

A: For cleaning the UltraCrush, the container, lid, and blade assembly can be washed in warm, soapy water, and all attachments are dishwasher safe when placed on the top rack. The motor base can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and should not be immersed in water. Whether it can be poured, and cleaned with one hand will depend on your individual abilities and recovery.

A: The UltraCrush is a blender and food processor system, but it is not designed to make hot soups.

A: You can puree cooked meat in your Ninja UltraCrush Professional Blender. For best results, cut the meat into smaller pieces and add a bit of liquid to help achieve a smoother consistency. Always ensure you do not exceed the MAX FILL line and use the preset or manual blend cycles as needed.

A: No. The UltraCrush Professional Blender is designed to use its 72 oz. full-size pitcher and does not include or support single-serve blending cups such as the 24 oz. Titan cups.

A: The UltraCrush blender is designed for efficient blending and pulsing, making it ideal for chunkier recipes like salsa. For best results, use the Pulse function in short bursts to control texture and prevent over-blending, and add ingredients in stages, starting with firmer items like onions and peppers before adding softer ingredients such as tomatoes.

A: Yes, the Ninja UltraCrush can puree. While it doesn’t have a dedicated “Purée” button, the 1000‑watt motor and Total Crushing stacked blade assembly are designed to blend sauces, cooked vegetables, fruits, soups, and baby food to a smooth consistency using the High or Max speed settings.

A: This pitcher is made of BPA‑free plastic not glass.
