Jar Blenders are a frequent presence in bars, coffee shops, smoothie cafes as well as commercial kitchens where they are used to mix, crush, puree or emulsify food. Ingredients need to be placed into the jar or container in order to process. Broadly speaking Jar Blenders fall into one of two categories: Bar Blenders and Food Blenders. Jars can be made of glass, metal or high impact plastic. Jar Blenders also come equipped with motors of differing horsepower, ranging from 1/2 to 3.5 HP. There are three types of blender controls: toggle / paddle, electronic, and programmable controls. Each type has its own benefits and an application where it works best.
