Thermomix Basic Cooking Modes: Your Guide to Effortless, Versatile Cooking

ThermomixWay, November 16, 2025November 16, 2025

Discover how Thermomix streamlines everyday cooking with powerful, easy-to-use modes. From manual control to specialised functions like Dough, Turbo, and Warm Up, these features help you prepare smoothies, soups, breads, eggs, teas, and more, consistently and quickly.

Manual Mode

Take full control of time, temperature, and speed. Whether you’re chopping, grinding, mixing, emulsifying, kneading, or sautéing, Manual Mode adapts to your recipe. The butterfly whisk helps evenly cook thicker dishes or larger food pieces when combined with liquid, and the simmering basket keeps ingredients safely away from the mixing knife. Opening the lid at speed 2 or below pauses cooking and stirring, then resumes seamlessly once the lid is replaced.

Dough

Master bakery-quality doughs at home. With pre-set clockwise and counter-clockwise kneading movements, Thermomix mimics hand-kneading for superior texture. Create heavy doughs with ease, ideal for homemade bread, pizza, pasta, sweet pastries, and enriched doughs like brioche.

Turbo

Need quick power? Turbo operates the mixing knife at maximum speed for short, pre-set bursts (0.5, 1, or 2 seconds). Perfect for chopping hard ingredients, nuts, Parmesan, chocolate. into smaller pieces without turning them to mush. Add pulses one at a time until you reach the desired texture.

Blend

Blend silky smoothies, purées, cocktails, and frozen desserts, or craft dips and soups with a more textured finish. Choose processing time and final speed to get your perfect blend; the mixing knife speed increases gradually to reach the target setting, ensuring smooth, controlled results.

Egg Boiler

Cook eggs exactly how you like them. The mixing knife is deactivated during this mode. Place 2–6 medium eggs (53–63 g each) into the mixing bowl without the simmering basket, add water to the desired cooking level, and start. Select your preferred doneness and enjoy consistent, perfect eggs every time.

Kettle

Heat water precisely between 37–100°C. Prepare great-tasting hot drinks, brew small amounts of tea, infuse herbs and spices, or warm water for baby bottles. Choose volumes from approximately 100 ml up to 1.8 litres with accurate temperature control.

Warm Up

Reheat prepped dishes without overheating. Warm liquids like milk, soups, sauces, stews, and baby food to the ideal temperature. The default warm-up temperature is 70°C, and you can set temperature and speed manually (spoon speed, 1, or 2) for gentle, even heating.

  • Faster prep with powerful chopping and blending
  • Versatility for everyday meals and advanced recipes
